Camera #94 – Grandview Lanes, Vancouver
April 10, 2008I’m in a bowling league, and I’ve been thinking for a while that it would be a good place to put a camera – I just never had the right opportunity. Until now. On Monday, we stayed for to roll some extra balls after the league bowling finished at the Grandview Lanes. Shortly thereafter, the place was packed with hipsters, rolling their way to strikes. I thought that it would be now or never. It seemed like there would be a good chance that whoever found it would partake – hipsters are always into taking part in freaky-deaky projects.
I just needed a spot that would allow me to place a camera without anyone seeing it, plus be somewhere that people would go, and it would be obvious. The bathroom! I went and put Camera #94 near the urinal in the men’s room – dudes severely outnumbered the ladies, and many of the ladies that were there were just getting ready to leave.
A few minutes later, I saw an excited bowler showing the package to his friends. Mission Accomplished.

Lame. I thought this was supposed to be anonymous. I had so many great ideas too… oh well, I’ll send it back blank and hopefully the next person won’t come here to read that they are being watched.

Hey Camera 84,
If it changes your mind at all, you were not intentionally watched. It was more due to the fact that we were bowling in the same lanes.
For the vast majority of the cameras, I leave as soon as I place them.
I do appreciate your concern. It would be unfortunate for this to affect your decision to participate in the project.
