Creative Phone Booths
飆創意 改造傳統電話亭
—Asha Thibedeau
While we carry phones in our pockets these days, traditional public phone booths have become outdated and abandoned. However, creative minds around the world are giving old-fashioned phone booths a face-lift. In some cases, they're even getting a new life.
If you've been to London, you have probably posed for a picture with one of London's famous red phone boxes. In honor of Queen Elizabeth's Diamond Jubilee and the 2012 London Olympics, British Telecom started the “BT ArtBox” campaign. They put 80 phone box replicas, transformed by the wild imaginations of artists, all around London.
Walking down the street, you might see a phone booth with a strangely twisted shape. Another may be painted like Big Ben or have a giraffe breaking through the roof, reaching for leaves. A traveling circus phone box has a dancer's leg sticking out and a drumming monkey on the top. One phone box has been turned on its side and made into something useful--a bright red couch!
現在我們隨身攜帶手機,傳統的公共電話亭已過時不用了。然而,世界各地的創意人士正替舊式的電話亭「整修門面」。某些整修案中的電話亭甚至得到了新生命。
假如你曾去過倫敦,你可能和倫敦知名的紅色電話亭一起拍照留念過。為了慶祝伊莉莎白女王登基六十週年和二○一二倫敦奧運,英國電信公司發起了「BT藝術電話亭」的活動。他們在倫敦各地放置了八十座電話亭的複製品,它們全都被藝術家用天馬行空的想像力給改造了。
走在倫敦街頭,你可能會看見一座被扭成奇形怪狀的電話亭。另一座電話亭可能被彩繪成像大笨鐘,或是有一隻長頸鹿從電話亭破頂而出要吃樹葉。一座巡迴馬戲團的電話亭有一隻舞者的腳伸了出來,上頭還有一隻打鼓的猴子。有一座電話亭還被側放,搖身變成實用的物品——一張亮紅色的沙發!
這些電話亭已全部被拍賣來為慈善團體ChildLine(編按:一九八六年由伊絲特.蘭珊(Esther Rantzen)在英國廣播公司電視所發起的協助電話,針對十九歲以下的兒童與青少年提供二十四小時的電話諮詢服務。)募款。人們在eBay上出價競標,並且知道他們的錢會用來做善事。
