Day 2 - Monday 15 September

Highlight of the day was to find out that a bike courier posted a video of Daily on Instagram and then founds it's way on to Facebook. Many thanks, who ever you are!

To scoot between the three sites of Daily, today I borrowed one Adelaide City Council's free bikes. Worked like a treat, though I soon learnt to keep to the bike lanes of Pirie St rather than taking on the busses of Grenfell St.

All three signs greeted workers, shoppers, students and visitors this morning with a "Public Notice - Art Here DAILY". Lots of double takes as passers by puzzles over why a roadsign was mentioning art. A techny guy at Hindmarsh Square was getting into how I manages to program the signs to show short videos.

At 8.30 I met a photographer from The City newspaper at Topham Mall. Look out for this week's edition. 



At Topham Mall, late morning visitors were greeted with a seemingly endless collection of error messages, all real messages that you've probably seen from your computer one time or another. Put together they convey the frustration we often experience trying to use these every more complex beasts. Indeed putting Daily together had its fair share of such experiences.

Early afternoon, the Daps were on display, human like creatures who refuse to conform to the stereotypes of bodies.

Both the error messages and Daps form part of the "revelation" theme of this Daily.

I gave afternoon commuters, on their way to the station, a good evening wave. A nice ritual to end the day.




Seems I took most of my photos today at Topham Mall.

At Hindmarsh Square, where people can relax on a park bench and toddlers can play, I shows "limbs" - wildly gymnastic creatures who can put their limbs anywhere they wish, a slideshow of the many different types of people we see and an animation of a pedestrian crossing, helicopter view.



At North Terrace uni students and school groups were entertained with a word sign that played on familiar train announcements followed by videos of buses. It was hard to tell these apart from the real things zooming by. With the clouds refusing to move on, it was appropriate to finish the day with an animation on rain.
