Les Sans Abris aux Etats-Unis sur Invisiblepeople.tv
homeless.jpeg

A New York, Sam Tsemberis de Pathwaystohousing a réalisé une installation interactive, je ne l'ai pas vu, mais je l'ai visionné sur le Web. Un film projeté contre un mur montre un homme couché. Un message interpelle les passants à l'aider à trouver un abri: "Pour l'aider à sortir de la rue, envoyer un texto au numéro 56512". Chaque fois qu'un passant envoie un SMS, l'homme se lève et ouvre une porte. Puis s'affiche un deuxième texte demandant un don par SMS. C'est une belle initiative qui compte se déplacer à travers les Etats-Unis.
