"Welcome to pink, are you familiar with our services?"

[pink unplugged] is both a real-life courier service and an interactive, site-specific art installation.

Visitors are invited to visit pink’s temporary love factory set up along Austin's City Hall plaza, where they can type a love note to someone in Austin. Notes are bottled on site by pink’s love factory workers and delivered by bicycle by pink’s love couriers anywhere in the city.   pink [unplugged] celebrates not only human connectivity but human power.  The factory is powered entirely by human & bicycle-generated energy.

Factory locations have included Austin, Texas; Portland, Oregon; Chicago, Illinois; and Brooklyn, New York (forthcoming).

pink: we (deliver) love (for) you. (pass it on.)
