CITIBANK ATM PRANK

On January 18, 2007 - PIN...Collective performed a prank in a Citibank ATM lobby on 16th St. & 8th Ave. in Manhattan. We called this project "Pranks Involving Nothing". The members collected discarded ATM receipts stamped them with our logo and recycled them into a new form "the paper airplane". We then installed close to 100 planes into the lobby of the bank on the countertops & terminals and left flyers around describing how-to make your own paper airplane using your ATM receipt to add to our installation. The entire process lasted about 4 hours from the making of the planes, the installation, to the dismantling of the exhibit by the banks clean up crew. We documented the event with photographs and videotape. We then collaborated and transformed the prank into a audio/visual composition using the videotaped source material into recognizable and unrecognizable images - and in essense removing the actual event from it's original context and reducing and simpifying the form.
