Report
Candy, along with five comrades, created the Cripplebush Ghost Tour, a project that was featured in New York's Conflux Festival in September 2007.
Over 200 stickers were placed in specific public locations in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. By texting the unique 4-digit code on the sticker, passers-by immediately received text-messaged history about the person behind their named location (Edmund Driggs of Driggs Avenue, Patrick McCarren of McCarren Park, etc). Local history brought to your cell phone!
In addition to the stickers, a guided tour was offered on September 16, 2007 as part of the Conflux Festival.
Through these guided and self-guided experiences, participants directly engaged with local history in an area originally called "Cripplebush" for the dense thickets that once dominated the landscape. Learn more on the project website. Design by Candy.
