During a trip to Hong Kong, I experienced a couple of inspirational machine culture examples. I have described them in a mini-series of postings and this is one of them.

I am not sure if the streets in Hong Kong actually have ordinary lampposts, because the streets are completely lit by huge commercials. Both the old-fashion neon signs and more modern flat screen technology. In fact, the worlds largest lit commecial is said to be in Hong Kong – something I find very likely. Once in while, however, stuff goes wrong in these things also, and the commercial below was shown in a huge 20 meter wide screen on a very busy street: ”mmos.exe has encountered a problem”. Good advertisement – for a different product.
