Dead Drops

There's something exciting and intriguing about anonymous exchanges or dead drops. Aram Bartholl created a file sharing network embedded in accessible public spaces. He 'injected' USB flash drives into walls, buildings and curbs accessible to anyone. People can go to these places (so far 5 in NYC) to drop or find files on a dead drop. Just plug your laptop to a wall, house or pole to share files. Each dead drop contains a readme.txt file explaining the project. Makes me wish I still lived in NYC.
