Chris Speed is a British artist/researcher who investigates the relation between space, time and architecture through conceptual approaches.
The Random Lift Button is a project in which Speed installed an R button in an elevator. By pressing it, people are taken to a random floor.
The Random Lift Button was apparently installed in two lifts in Portland Square at the University of Plymouth, UK. Are they still functional? Did anyone ever try one of them?
Related elevator art: The floor of the elevator (Televator) at the Ars Electronica Center in Linz animates when it’s in motion. Coincidentally, it’s made by Roy Ascott who - like Chris Speed - is also affiliated with Plymouth University.

Living in Texas, we’ve seen our fair share of cacti. So it goes without saying that we were intrigued to hear of the Urban Cactus, an architectural project in Rotterdam. Designed by UCX Architects, the future housing project will accommodate 98 residential units within its 19 floors. Because it sits on a harbor, the architects decided that the tower needed a natural “green” image – which has manifested itself in a stacked set of rotated, swoopy plates.

Drop Spots is a kind of alternative mailbox. It’s a hiding place in a public space, where people can leave things for exchange. Anything. It’s a wierd and wonderful way to add personal character to the streets that we live in. Stash something fun and see what you get back. Not much going on [...]
