W2’s Fearless City streamed mobile video projections and text messages, remixing social media to reveal our Downtown Eastside neighbourhood to local and Olympic visitors. During public gatherings, VJs mix in interactive content from the public sending Tweets and SMS text messages.

Fearless City fosters public input about the Downtown Eastside neighborhood, its culture and environment. Participating artists include Suez Holland, Sammy Chien, AHA Media, as well as local residents and artists who have been involved in the W2 inner-city mobile technology project.
