Place Project

Place Project. A suitcase with a camera and a blank book travelled the world. 35 designers have translated the world around them into their pages. After 18 months and 170.000 km it will be presented in Barcelona. November 23 - December 12, 2004.

Loads a blank page for me on Firefox.

While I'm generally a big fan of globally-distributed, collaborative projects (like this one, this one or this one), this one, with its '35 desginers' and Flash site, reeks of snobbery. Why not send this to 35 plumbers or 35 paralegals? You'd get more interesting stories and less crappy psuedo-art video.

Works on Firefox for me (0.9), but has The Flash on the front page so I went no further.

Yeah, dbarefoot! Or why not 35 Packers, Painters, Paperhangers, Pediatricians, Physicists, Pipelayers, Podiatrists, Postmasters, or Psychiatrists? (I assume they're only allowed to start with 'p'...)

Blank page for Firefox 1.0 for me. No big deal, I certainly don't expect people to test out every link on every browser. Just providing this for reference.
