WTF is an audio flash mob? There’s one happening in Singapore next month

Singapore’s very own social experiment unit The Hidden Good and New York-based company Improv Everywhere — which by the way is famed for creating scenes of chaos and joy in public places — are collaborating on this city’s second audio flash mob on July 12.

An audio flash mob, well at least where The Hidden Good’s concerned, is one based on instructions heard live off an MP3 track. Participants put on their headphones or earpieces while on location and engage in actions such as freezing in place and high-fiving unsuspecting pedestrians.

The first audio flash mob in Singapore happened last year (watch below) at the Resorts World Sentosa, which was kept secret right up till the last minute.
