30 Seconds of Fun

A UCLA architecture student came up with the 30 Seconds of Awesome project, which turns 38 seconds of pedestrian crossing time at Westwood and Le Conte into 38 seconds of tug of war, volleyball, or limbo. The idea came out of professor Mark Mack's class--look for him dressed in an orange jumpsuit and shouting orders through a bullhorn in videos of the action on Streetsblog. [Streetsblog LA]
