1000 Cell Phones, a Parsons/Tsinghua University collaboration, will be included as part of Figment 2009 this June 12-14 on Governor’s Island.

Emerging out of an institutional collaboration between Parsons The New School for Design (New York City) and the Academy of Arts and Design at Tsinghua University (Beijing), the interactive artwork, 1000 Cell Phones, exposes the invisible conversation that constantly occurs between the networked devices we carry throughout our nomadic urban daily life.
