Parasite on the Subway.

"...Parasite is a projection-system that can be attached to subways and other trains. Using the speed of the vehicle as parameter for the projected content, the projection starts with the train moving inside a tunnel.All along their journey, travellers see images mysteriously appearing through the train windows: words, aquatic animals, etc. Confusing the routine of your train-travelling-journey, your habits and perception Parallel allows you a glimpse into a different world full of surrealist imagery...."

See the movie here (that's a direct link to the .mov file, which can be played in quicktime. It's around 35MB, so if you're on dial-up... don't click the link). It's really a quite fascinating and entertaining idea. My favourite part would have to be around halfway through: the doco footage of the shark. To see more street art (not necessarily like this) head over to the Wooster Collective.
