I’m sure some people won’t consider this post serious or important enough, but I think it is. Look at the faces of the people in any flash mob video. Surprise turns into smiles into amazement and ends in gratitude. It’s a lovely gift that unites everyone in the room.
And, if you’re like me (and can’t get enough of this stuff!), here’s another flash mob video held at the old Wanamaker’s in Philadelphia. They perform the same song and I love the Random Act of Culture signs they hold up at the end. We could use a lot more random acts of culture.
