It's been switched off after less than a week...
The project has been overshadowed by trolling and drunken antics An art project linking Manhattan and Dublin via livestreaming devices installed in public places has gone exactly how you would expect it to if you know the slightest thing about people. Twin sculptures fitted with cameras and a large screen were fitted in each city last week with the wholesome aim of building a ‘bridge to a united planet’.
New Yorkers appeared to find it hilarious when one woman twerked at the screen The Irish sense of humour appeared to favour more bare-bottomed antics Of course, social media was soon awash with clips of people baring their buttocks at the screen, twerking, and making various lewd gestures. One woman was filmed being dragged away by Garda law enforcement officers after grinding her backside against the screen.
