Day 4 - Wednesday 17 September

On arriving into town today, I was chuffed to see a story on  Daily on page 9 of this week's The City newspaper. Thanks Sophie Perri for a great story.

Rain cleared to sun. Good news for custodian of three solar powered road signs. And also an opportunity to start showing some of the videos that can drain the batteries in cloudy days.

The regulars of Topham Mall were greeted with me presenting a good morning message, in the style of Bob Dylan's "Subterranean Homesick Blues" video. One passer by noted that Daily was a refreshing change from the "doom" messages normally shown on road signs.




Mid morning was an exercise in location, location, location with a play on the words "you are here". Who needs a GPS when you know that? The lunch crowd got to view Tetris, a short video of a person being built from Tetris pieces.

Those on their way home got to see buses on the road sign, as well as criss-crossing Currie Street.






While Topham was all about location, Hindmarsh Square was playing with the words "the time is now". What else do you need on a watch face?

The Square is an oasis in the City. People stretched out on the grass enjoying the spring sun. They were presented with faces emerging from a QR code and a never ending video of scrolling through an app on a phone. There were plenty of passers by doing just that.

Those ever changing creatures, the Daps finished off the day.













Over at North Terrace, it's Graduation time. Gowns, graduates and proud families galore. I greeted them in the morning with some waving. Mid morning was "face mess", those two eyes and a mouth in search of making a face. In the photo below, a mother was entertained by the "limbs" creatures whilst caring for her child. At the end of the day, those on their way to catch a train home were reminded to "mind the gap".
