I often wondered if the Pigeon's in DC were used for anything. They would fly around the top of the obelisk in the evening, with the lights shining on the monument. It was really cool.
I feel bad for the pigeons. They scare them into flight by making them think they are being attacked. Pigeons cannot see at night and they are flying in terror, trying to find a safe place to land.
Omg nothing but haters. Nice job bro you turned a war ship into a pigeon coop. In India they attach noise makers to the birds legs and when they fly it makes a harmonic sound great job again.
at 4:04 a lot of the pigeons look sick... or very cold... they should not be sitting on the floor hunched up with ruffled feathers like that. Also they can't see at night.. so how do they get back into the coop? And how do people catch all them pigeon to turn on and off the LED lights?
I wonder if the pidgeons were released a bit further in the sea it wouldn't be possible to see the pidgeons themselves, giving an ilusion of a moving constelation.
1) Training birds to fly from Havana to Key West with Cuban Cigars isn't art - its smuggling contraband into the country. 2) 2000 Pigeons in a city is just disgusting. Think of other people who don't like getting crapped on when just going about their day. 3) 4:47 what possible political issue are you highlighting? So pretentious.
+dothedeed lol 1. fair point, but who gives a shit when the cigars are not being sold and the trade blocks are BS anyway. I think it's rather ingenious and creative. 2. they are in the naval yard. there are already millions of other birds in the city. calm yourself. 3. the meaning of art is all about how someone can see something like this and apply their own meaning. To you it is just a guy messing around with a bunch of birds for no reason. So why be offended?
