Project speech bubbles onto buildings, line the speech bubbles up to the windows. the public can send meesages up to the speech bubbles, speaking for the inhabitants of the building.

I've been researching Krzysztof Wodiczko. An artist with over 70 public projections. His projections are usually shown on major public buildings with politically charged content. His interest in how design, performance, and media interact to encourage dialogue for social change are interesting to me and what I've been looking at in terms of my thesis.

"Only physical, public projection of the myth on the physical body of the myth (projection of myth on myth) can successfully demythify the myth. The look, the appearance, the costume, the mask of the building is the most valuable and expensive investment. In the power discourse of the "public" domain, the architectural form is the most secret and protected property. Public Projection involves questioning both the function and the ownership of this property" (1983).
