I wish I wish there were more fish!



Yesterday, Spinvox unveiled the wishing well in Covent Garden. A 21st Century wishing well... kinda cool. My friend is in the circles of Spinvox and anyone, one needs to know in the social media and digital revolution world...So we had a little outing to this wishing well. It is just plain amazing, reading peoples most intimate but also silly wishes all round this massive triangular cone in the middle of London. The downside to this digital monstrum is, that one gets neckpain while staring at all the wishes... I kinda fell into a trance while reading the ever changing messages... very much the christmas spirit, and at the moment one of the most amazing places to waste time at, in London.

The concept is as simple as genius:

All throughout December (and a little bit into Januray) we’re inviting you to come call the dedicated local number 0207 818 0880 (or if you’re overseas +44 207 818 0880 - intl rates apply) and share your wishes for Christmas, New Year and beyond…

Once you’ve spoken your wish, SpinVox will convert it into text and project it across the inner walls of the structure you see above!

And, each new wish will heralded with an array of many different sounds and voices, filling Covent Garden’s East Piazza with a ‘dramatic soundscape’ unlike anything you’ll have ever heard before!
