The Onefish Twofish Family Scamper Round The Tate Modern
As a celebration of all the exciting projects we've worked on so far, Onefish Twofish invited clients and friends to try out the slides at the Tate Modern.
It seemed a fitting tribute to the head-spinning amount of work we've done in the last year to hurtle through the Turbine Hall at 30mph (so we were told) in Carsten Holler's latest invention. The concept of the installation is about practicality as much as art. Holler suggests that similar slides should be built all over London, linking important landmarks. We can only think he is referring to Topshop and Oxford Circus tube station.
Among the sliders were directors and importantnesses from Vybrant, Hot Rivet, Bi Jingo, Hello Currency, Growth Creation, ProfitAbility, Benicate, Best Interests, Inspring, Living Teams and lots of other clever businesses. Once the possibilities of sliding had been thoroughly explored (a black market trade in 'Slide 5' tickets was in full flow by the end of the morning), we trooped off for lunch nearby. A thoroughly modern take on Christmas lunch was filled with huge guffawing and giggling from around the table.
Ideas on a postcard for next year please... (diving with sharks? panning for gold in Wales? train spotting?...)
