Amazingly no threads about this already.
The sculptor Antony Gormley (the guy who did "The Angel Of The North") had the idea of turning ordinary people into art by giving each one a one hour slot on top of the empty fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square.
Each person has an hour to whatever they choose. Some people just stand there but some people do wacky things like throw paper planes off it. You can watch it through a live feed on the internet (link below). The event will run from 6 July to 14 October.
If you like you can still apply for as slot although your act will have to be good as there are 2400 places and 27926 but if you do, good look to you. Enjoy the show!

(Right now there is a man Singing to rock music, he has a live band and all! So check that out)
I might apply for a place and jump around on my jumping stilts.
I'd apply.
Stand up there, shit bricks for an hour.
If I could go up I would just stand there screaming for help in hopes that somebody who does not know about the project walks past :D
Also up next is this guy called StuartofLondon who will be singing the Mariah Carey version of "I can't live if living is without you"

Someone apply for a hour and put a Facepunch sign up there.
There's some guy using his phone...

Yeah, he's started singing rock music now
Edit: Oh wow he has a live band all of a sudden!
This was mentioned on a Charlie Brooker program (You Have Been Watching - C4, for us Brits), last Tuesday.
It was quite funny :P

This is cool.
Except he's just telling bad jokes and/or standing there.
Good job disagreeing(sp?) on promoting your own forums.
What a bunch of fucktards.
