StavrosintroOnce you think about, you could say Stavros is like one crazy Nseries Urbanista Diarist with a few plans of his own.  This is probably one of the funniest and creative events that the guys at WOM World have come up with. Basically, Stavros will be using the N82 just like the Urbanista Diarists, but this time not to document the experience but to create art! The idea is to create an image using the interconnected GPS location points, creating what is called Position Art. I have previously criticized Nokia’s earlier events, mini sites, launch and viral video’s because they fail to show the consumer what is possible with the Nseries devices. The N96 launch video surprisingly showed almost every single feature of the N96 with a twist of comedy. The Stavros event is another success as it showcases the possibilities of the N82 as an excellent GPS tool with many creative uses and I do have to admit that they put it all in a very funny package. Behind the hilarious character I can see some legitimate uses for the N82 and its built-in GPS to create art and once I think about it, it would be fun to try to create an image using the N95 8GB and sports tracker.

In another GPS related news fellow Urbanista Diarist Ryan Gallagher has returned home meaning that the Nseries Urbanista Diaries has sadly come to an end. But Ryan returns home with some interesting news that he has had a talk with a few guys from the Nokia team and is reporting that they indicated that many of their international offices now want to start organizing Urbanista projects.  So this means that we haven’t seen the last of GPS related events like the Urbanista Diaries and Stavros and his art. I wonder what they’ll come up with next…
