The Ballston Business Improvement District unveiled “Beachfront Potential” and “Missed Connections,” on Thursday, Aug. 7. The installations are two of eight public displays of innovation that will be showcased in Ballston through the fall.
Artist Patrick McDonough of “Beachfront Potential” invited market goers to take a seat in one of his custom lifeguard chairs and learn a bit more about rising sea levels through their mobile devices. Chongha Peter Lee and Blake Turner of “Missed Connections” add some insight to the community by projecting text from the ‘missed connections’ section of craigslist.com onto a screen.
