"I recall, Central Park in fall..."


Probably the most iconic scenes of my favorite John Hughes film meets performance art...it'd be a blast to take part in it:
Artist Mina Karimi is looking to pull together "a large performance art piece that requires 6-8 hundred people recreating the parade scene from Ferris Bueller at the Deitch Art Parade in Soho." She says she is "recruiting secret agents in the audience of the parade to mimic the extras in the movie as my Ferris float approaches. In order to fully reproduce the spirit of the scene I will need at least 100 agents on each block of the parade to get the Ferris joy-ball rolling."
(sadly I'm gonna have Wayne Newton stuck in my head for the rest of the shift at least)
