A flash mob is a large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual action for a brief time, then quickly disperse. ...
Altering space, time, comfort....
virtually and physically gathering a twisted sense of community, collection...
presenting an unknown, unexpected presence in public spaces...
changing space by re-programming its use: Tesco as disco, public square as silent rave, zombie cemetery, foux finger gun fight...

Around 100 people gathered in Avenida Paulista and pointed remote controls at a giant screen, as if they were trying to change channels.
After exactly three minutes they put the controls away and walked off as if nothing had happened, Folha de Sao Paulo newspaper reports.
The first Brazilian flash mob happened last week when a crowd converged on a Sao Paulo street corner, removed one shoe each and beat it on the pavement several times.
The flash mob phenomenon, in which crowds organised by email and websites perform pointless stunts, started in the US and has spread around the world.
