Musical FM in Hague Train stations Netherlands

The Hague Central Station was the scene of a musical flashmob on Tuesday morning. The flashmob was a ‘spontaneous action’, where people come out of the crowd to perform a musical protest action before mingling back into the crowd.

The participants were members of broadcasting orchestras and the Netherlands Radio Choir.

In the run up to the Rutte government’s statement on proposed cultural cuts, the flashmob held their own kind of musical protest in the busy train station.











Media Coverage (Dutch)

T-Mobile - Heathrow

Imagine the scene: you've just arrived at Heathrow's Terminal 5 after a long flight, feeling a bit stinky, a bit disorientated. And then you are greeted by this...
Yep, the T-Mobile flash mob is back, back, back! This morning 500 people, dressed as waiting public, taxi drivers, cabin crew, baggage handlers and T-Mobile staff and customers, have been greeting passengers walking through arrivals at Heathrow's Terminal 5 with a bit of singing and dancing.
Clips from the footage shot so far are shown above (unfortunately the film also includes some brand speech from T-Mobile - sorry folks). The finished ad will break on Friday night at 10.15pm, when a full three-minute version will be aired simultaneously across more than 80 digital and terrestrial commercial TV channels. Agency Saatchi & Saatchi are clearly confident of the ad's success, and following the huge popularity of its earlier flash mob spots, perhaps it has a right to be. But has the flash mob ad had its day?

Protest - Event - Gay kiss demo for Pope's visit

Hundreds of gay people will kiss each other in front of the Pope when he visits Spain next month.
The demonstration, organised by Facebook group Queer Kissing Flashmob, is to protest against the Pope's alleged anti-gay views.
Gays will take to the streets when Benedict XVI leaves Barcelona Cathedral on his way to the famous Sagrada Familia church on November 7. The Pope caused controversy two years ago when he suggested that homosexuality was as dangerous as the destruction of the rainforest.
Event organiser Marylene Carole said: "When Benedict XVI passes in front of us, we will kiss, man with man or woman with woman."

Flash mob dancers lay slick moves on shoppers

Around 100 people spontaneously broke into dance as part of a flash mob at Botany Town Centre yesterday, surprising shoppers.

The members of the flash mob got their jive on to Greased Lightning from the musical Grease while seven hidden cameras filmed the dance and people's reactions.

A "flash mob" is a gathering where participants dance or perform a dramatic action in a public place. They are usually organised on the internet and are popular on YouTube.

Stijn Van de Velde organised the event for a student project for South Seas Film and Television school, where he studies editing.

He said he appealed to the other 126 students for their help and set up a Facebook page to organise the two dance rehearsals before the event.

"It's always been my dream to organise a flash mob and I'm really happy with how it went."

Tucson Zombie Walk - Event

For Zombie Walk 2010, registration will start at 3 p.m. Participants have to either contribute an item of non-perishable food or make a monetary donation in order to be part of the walk, and are encouraged to dress up like a dead version of an actor or a character from a movie, as the theme is "Film Fiends." At 4 p.m., the undead have the opportunity to dance in "Thrill the World," a worldwide event in which individuals lurch to Michael Jackson's "Thriller" all at the same time. Zwaduk recommends checking YouTube tutorials if you want to be a part of it but don't know the moves. "A lot of people enjoyed it last year and asked if we were going to do it again; ... everyone who danced last year knew it," said Zwaduk.

The walk itself will creep down Fourth Avenue and turn around at Fourth Street, with the Best in Show winner (as determined by the costume contest) leading. On the way back, the group limps downtown toward Access Tucson. The culmination will be a War of the Worlds-style takeover with actors in the studio, and the station will actually go off air.


The event itself has grown into something with a large following. Lopez and Zwaduk are most surprised by the number of kids who come to the event dressed to the hilt.

"One thing that I remember the first year—I was at the Rialto and I was almost afraid that people wouldn't show up," Lopez said. "The first people who showed up were this mom and her three kids, ranging in age from five to 15. For the walk, I carry around a squirt bottle full of fake blood, and she was like 'Spray my kids down!' It was just awesome seeing this mom bringing her kids and really getting into it."


Registration for the Tucson Zombie Walk 2010 starts at 3 p.m., Saturday, Oct. 23, at Hotel Congress, 311 E. Congress St. Admission is an item of non-perishable food or a donation to the Tucson Community Food Bank. For more information on the entire schedule of events, visit their website.

I look forward to seeing you all at the parade Saturday, Oct. 30, in downtown Douglas at 10 p.m.

Flash Mob - Breaks Out At Horizon High School

It's kind of like an old-school scene from the movie "Fame" but with a 2010 twist. It’s now called a "flash mob".
The Horizon High School show choir led a "flash-mob" dance on campus Wednesday. Just a few students start out in what looks like a spontaneous dance but then hundreds of other eventually join in.
By the end of the dance, the flash mob was 300 students strong.
Choir members organized the lunch-time dance to promote the school's Broadway Under the Stars event this weekend

A cute, organization, In the spirit of good humor and fun (and to relieve some of the tension surrounding the APR requirement vote) -- we pulled together a flash mob. Last year, we tipped our tent cards. This year we tipped our caps. We honored/ribbed everyone's favorite curmudgeon and muck-raker, Jack O'Dwyer by waiting until a break and ambushing him to present him with pens (inspired by a scene from the movie "A Beautiful Mind").

MSU Student Life hosts flash mob



MSU President Lou Anna K. Simon and Sparty join a flash mob organized by the MSU Dept. of Student Life on Saturday at Demonstration Field. The flash mob was the idea of Denise Maybank, senior associate vice president for Student Affairs and Services, third from left.
MSU President Lou Anna K. Simon, Sparty and about a hundred green-T-shirt clad students sidestepped and fist pumped their way across Demonstration Field Saturday morning.

The MSU Department of Student Life hosted a “flash mob” before the Homecoming football game for students and staff to do the Spartan Shuffle.

“We just wanted to do something fun and exciting for homecoming and this just seemed like the right thing to do to get things started,” said Denise Maybank, senior associate vice president for Student Affairs and Services.

A flash mob is when a large group of people gather suddenly in a public area and begin an activity such as dancing.
“I’m not sure where it originally came from,” communication junior Elizabeth Battiste said. “But I know at the university, President Simon really wanted to do it and Dr. Maybank … was really excited about it too.”

Battiste helped organize the event and promote it via Facebook, Twitter and an instructional YouTube video that teaches students how to do the Spartan Shuffle, or “the Sparty.” Battiste said the response was strong and they hope to continue it for years to come.

Battiste also was among the participants in the dance that was led by Maybank. Along with organizing the event, Maybank choreographed the dance.

“(I) just tried to find easy steps that people wouldn’t be threatened by so that they feel comfortable doing it,” Maybank said.

“It’s an easy line dance. No different than the Cupid Shuffle or anything else.”

Graduate student Lizzy Thornton had seen videos of flash mobs at other universities, such as Grand Valley State University and Ohio State University, so when she heard about this event she wanted to be a part of it.

“I was really excited to see MSU doing something like this for the students,” Thornton said. “There were a good number of people. It was fantastic to see Lou Anna Simon out here as well and Sparty.”

Thornton said she hopes the event, which was filmed, will bring positive publicity to the university if it goes viral.

Overall, she said she enjoyed the event and will take something away from the experience, figuratively and literally.

“It’s always great to get a free T-shirt,” Thornton said.
