Pimp My Satellite Dish.

By Alex in Arts & Crafts on Jun 26, 2007 at 3:46 am


A Dutch artist "pimped" the satellite dishes of residents of "satellite city" area (can you guess why?) in Amsterdam. If you’re wondering, the hooks on the roof are used to pull up furnitures, because the stairways are too narrow.

    don't ask why :D (some) Dutch people are proud of their artistic capability, and the community is very supportive towards anything art/culture. so of course you'll find community projects like this a lot here. some interesting art related stuff that happens just recently: http://www.dutchamsterdam.nl/194-more-nudity-than-normal-in-amsterdam- as-photographer-spencer-tunick-hits-town

    how fun and eclectic. i'm going to round up all my neighborhood's third graders, tag a bunch of sats and say "the dutch made me do it! the dutch made me do it!"

    I know some sats can lose their signal with just a little snow. I've heard of the suggestion to use cooking oil to clean the sat, but that can destroy the paint and the signal.

    They can't be getting a good signal, but what do they have to watch over there anyways? Last time I was in Italy, they were watching reruns of Different Strokes (title "Arnold").
