There's a Pong tournament on a Philly skyscraper tonight

A couple weeks ago there was a similar installation as part of an art show in São Paulo. There were a dozen different games you could play using a phone/tablet off the street. I like the 'bike invaders' one:<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&#38;v=97oDJF7WpXo#t=59s" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&#38;v...</a>

Looks less sophisticated than the CCC's Blinkenlights project.<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdaXP7hLHEs" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdaXP7hLHEs</a>

Am I the only one who pictured a beer pong tournament on the roof of a skyscraper before reading the link?

There'll also been some awesome chiptune artists playing: Cheap Dinosaurs and Animal Style.

There's a Bay Bridge in Oakland that could use some Pong.

very fitting. I fist discovered a pong console with paddles in the TV hutch in 1979. that was my first arcade summer. where? in Philly!

blinkenlights all over again, good ideas never die.
