1. GROUP 1: FOLLOWING THE DEVELOPMENT OF A STORY IN ART BLOGOSPHERE
TOPIC: PROPOSAL OF HOVERING PEDESTRIAN DONUT AT GRAND CENTRAL
By Danielle, Brian & Arielle
We followed a topic covered by many, but only explore the topic below as it was
covered specifically within a small community of architecture/art blogs. The
development and build up of the story is very clear within this network of blogs, as we
see bloggers adding to the story with new angles, photographs, and headlines as time
goes on. Watch as we see headlines build off of old headlines, and new ones arise.
Who Broke the Story? MAS NYC Blog on October 18th at 8:48 am before images of
any designs were released online. See below.
