If you are up to some laughs and want to know what the art world is doing to keep you happy –or at least smiling a lot while checking out the internet— make sure you stop by at ThePlug.com, home of the homonymous monthly digital magazine which puts together a series of urban incursions by a group of artists, performers and designers from around the country which get together to do slightly odd stuff, like holding signs in streetlights stating ‘Hyphens’, having some fun with consumer service reps, or randomly giving out certificates of ‘awesome-ticity’ for the best cig pause, cashiering, or being a goldfish (I wonder if I can get my own for writing about them…).
Anyway, the magazine is usually made up for some half a dozen sections featuring the latest pranks/happenings, generally with text and pictures, and in cases where interacting with people is involved, you get audio as well. By visiting the site, users can take a look at the latest issues (26 thru 29), and an anthology of the best from the back issues, so take advantage of some complimentary office internet connection, and take a look at what these guys are doing.
