Google Streetview Germany went life yesterday and the whole country goes nuts about it, (not enough blur, too much blur, unblur FB groups etc.) haha …. OMG. After I posted my ‘15 Seconds of Fame Streetview self portraits series‘ yesterday press picked it up and I was featured in two newspapers today. Berliner Morgenpost got it quite right (because they called and I told them the story that I jumped out the cafe and ran actually dancing behind the Google car :-)

Tagesspiegel (below) got it wrong. They describe me as being mad at the G-car.  That s not true!!! I would never do that!!! I used to drive that car too!! ;-) But Tagesspiegel is professional journalism, so they called and will get it right tomorrow with a new piece on me and my work. Looking fwd to that! :-) Stay tuned for a scan. (No need to by paper ;-)

Yes!! The ‘official’ Google Streetview car was seen at the ‘Freedom not fear’ demonstration Berlin last Saturday! Great that Google joined the Demonstration “…against excessive surveillance by governments and businesses – Stop Surveillance Mania!
