Google Maps Hack

Through the use of 99 smartphones and a hand-pulled cart, artist Simon Weckert has found a way to manipulate our virtual world, and in turn manipulate people's experience of the real world.

" 99 second hand smartphones are transported in a handcart to generate virtual traffic jam in Google Maps.Through this activity, it is possible to turn a green street red which has an impact in the physical world by navigating cars on another route to avoid being stuck in traffic. " #googlemapshacks
