Lower Manhattan and Governor’s Island by epc
A huge thanks to everyone who came out to The Mp3 Experiment 5 today on Governor’s Island! We got lucky as the misty weather dried up shortly after pressing play. We don’t have a head count yet, but it was probably around 1.5 jabillion.
If you’re planning on attending in one of the other three cities on the tour, stay away from the photos and the comments section to avoid spoilers.

I had a blast today. I’d like to apologize for falling on that guy’s face when I died during the epic battle. I feel really bad about it. Hopefully you came away with nothing more than a headache.
PORT SIDE!!!
Why don’t we have a mission on the Staten Island Ferry and do all those chants, waves, and etc.? It’ll be crazy!
I had a BLAST today! Governors island was truly a great place to stage this event! PORT SIDE!!!!!!!!
I had a great time. I’m curious as to what the Tetris pieces might have looked like from above. Most seemed confused at the time. I definitely want in on the next one!
Amazing time :)
just wished it was at a more populated area.
PORT SIDE!
waiting for pictures anxiously!!!
I actually expected to see a cameraman on the large steel tower that is visible from the field, but I didn’t see anyone there; at least not during the tetris. I doubt they’re gonna have pictures of that.
Someday I want to plan one of these, not because I think I could do a better job, but because it sounds like it’s fun to come up with ideas, make the recordings, scan the location, and talk to press. When will the opportunity arise, though?
This was the first time I’ve been able to attend an improve everywhere. Thank you for a fun day. I agree that the weather was a factor in less spectators.
The miniature golf on the island was fun to play and a good place to start the improve.
I was disappointed in the number of participants that helped pick up all the balloon litter.
So which way was it to Nicaragua?
Thank you for free fun in NYC.

Blue and Green forever, mostly green tho.
I had an amazing time today. It was my first appearance at an Improv Everywhere event and I promise you it will not be my last. Im going to attend every one I can from now on.
If you saw a a person crawling under a huge blue chase umbrella, say hello to me!!!! =)
Kristen H, that was me! Cyber High five! Also, ya’ll go on facebook and search “Port/Starboard” and you’ll find a plesent suprise! It’s the with (for at least green/blues) a very framiliar view on it… {My head is dead center in that, in the blue shirt}
Yes today was extremely fun! I was also on that first ferry with the chanting, although I was riding on the top deck towards the left lol. I was also the guy who had someone die in his arms. Green polo, gray jeans =p. Cant wait to see the video!
PORT SIDE RULES/Red-and-yellow 4life. D: That was probably the most fun thing I’ve ever done, and I feel I owe a debt of thanks to my yellow allies, especially the guy who dragged me up from the brink of death screaming “YOU CAN STILL FIGHT!” Thank you, you-can-still-fight guy.
So, next year needs to come faster. Also, I agree with the person saying we need to do chants on the SI ferry. D:
Hahaha I’m from Staten Island and ride the ferry almost every weekend. That would be hilarious and amazing, but I don’t know how much they’d allow that. They let those super religious people scream about us all going to hell, but I dunno how they’d feel about a ton of people chanting..hm….they might just stop the boat and throw us all off…=D
And there’s too many people from the port side posting, so I feel the need to represent my fellow starboard side heh.
Port Side for life!
Also, I just used google maps so next time I’m at Governor’s Island I can point to Nicaragua.
Now if only I could get “Rainbow Connection” out of my head.
Starboard Side!
That was really fun, especially since my friend’s idea for the umbrellas and the humming was used for this MP3 Experiment. Super fun guys. Minus the very brutal EPIC BATTLE scenario where when I died I was still pulverized with balloons. Those relentless Blues and Greens.

Kristen: D: Every weekend? >>; I go to school in the city, so I have to take it daily, I don’t think they’d notice us. Ever ride the ferry on the day of a big parade? same concept, just we’d do it on the way there and on the way back. D: No big deal, right? We’re from Staten Island, everyone thinks we’re batty, anyway.
had a blast….not that many people who weren’t involve there but it was fine by me.
and whoever gave me and extra balloon and to the guy who tied up my balloon thanks a ton
had a blast leaving too…singing my nsync’s tearing up my heart with my friend and that guy who sang along…u rock guy
and i cant forget bout the bear
good fun cant wait till the next event
True haha, I was on it last St Patty’s Day and people were going crazy. There was a point in time last summer when I was on it every day. Hopefully I will soon be employed and that’ll be true again hah.
Love the pictures.
Thanks to the guy who shared his headphone splitter right before the “EPIC BATTLE” w/(blue) asian girl and a (green) guy. Thanks to everyone who filled me in since my mp3 file didn’t download correctly!
GO BLUE/GREENS!!!! GO PORT SIDE!!!!
(That wait to get on the ferry and the ferry ride ROCKED!)
