Happy Birthday to The Art of the Prank (almost)!
On April Fools’ Day 2009,
The Art of the Prank Blog
will be two years old!
Note to our contributors, friends and fans:
In celebration, we have moved the entire blog to a cloud server. This will help us accommodate more volume and more traffic. Since we’re making big changes, we decided to change our Web address at the same time. Why not cause the maximum confusion for the most people?
Henceforth, The Art of the Prank Blog will be found at
http://artoftheprank.com
(instead of http://Pranks.com)
Our new email addresses are:
admin @ artoftheprank.com to talk with us
submit @ artoftheprank.com to submit materials to the site
You can continue to count on us to bring you the profound, the profane, and the pathetic, that is — the widest spectrum of artful pranks; culture jamming & reality hacking; creative activism; literary, media & political hoaxes; truth that’s stranger than fiction; prank instructionals; and loads of practical jokes and mischief.
Please update your bookmarks and those of your friends’. If you are a subscriber, you don’t have to change anything. Email and RSS feed subscriptions should continue to function as usual.

Improv Everywhere: Subway Art Gallery Opening
From Charlie Todd of Improv Everywhere, March 18, 2009:
For our latest mission, 50 Improv Everywhere agents created an art gallery opening on the 23rd Street subway platform in Manhattan. We put up 30 placards next to objects in the space (pipes, electrical boxes, signs, advertisements), transforming them into works of art. The gallery included a bar, a coat rack, and a cellist.

There should be one or two big missions this spring / summer. New Yorkers, make sure you’re on the NY Agents List to get the details.
