New York Writes It’s Self is “is an ongoing series of creative productions fueled by the real people of New York - what people see and hear in the city is recorded as a ‘script’, which forms the inspiration for music, creative writing, art exhibitions and more.”
The monstrous creative agency known as Leo Burnett, has launched this project, in order to let New York’s people tell the story of their city. These stories will be then made into major art pieces, by established artists. “Scribes” go on to the New York Writes It’s Self website, and pen their observations in the city. So many amazing scenes take place in New York every day, and now, these stories have a place to live.
The project is being promoted all over NYC on the tops of cabs, on the taxi television stations, and on major billboards, as well as through a series of videos called “The Chairman”. The trailer for “The Chairman” is below.
