Item 57 – Vintage Tech Bikini
It’s almost summer and you know what that means’ It’s Bikini Season! Your swimsuit is vintage – it’s made out of old, obsolete tech equipment.
Item 55 – Plumber Clogging
Everyone knows that chimney sweeps are great dancers, but did you know plumbers are, too? Show us a plumber unclogging a drain while ‘clogging’ (the dance).
Item 53 – Haute Couture Face Mask
Nobody’s going to embrace face masks until they become fashionable, and right now they’re kind of boring. Design a haute couture face mask that would make Billy Porter jealous. The integrity of the mask (breathability and filtration) must NOT be impacted.
Item 52 – Pet Cosplay
You know how they say people end up looking like their pets? Through costumery, make-up, and perfect mimicry, become your pet or favorite stuffed animal. -Alyssa Z.
Item 51 – Clown Egg
Submit a clown face to the Clown Face Registry. You must paint it on an egg. The catch: it must be a recognizable likeness of a politician you think is a real clown. All we need to see is an image of the transformed egg.
Item 50 – Videoconference Tea Party
The conference may be virtual, but you’re together in reali-tea. Hold a videoconference tea party with four participants: Align the images of all participants in a grid so that you seamlessly interact. Pour tea from one recipient into the frame of another, pass objects such as scones or cakes’ you get the idea.
Item 48 – Distance Reading
Up to 20 seconds. It’s storytime! But lots of children are out of school and missing out on valuable literacy opportunities. Using large visual aids or a projector, and a real or home-made bullhorn or megaphone, distance-read to children on a nearby balcony.
Item 47 – Animal Job Posting
So many people are out of work right now, and it’s time to explore some new career options. Create a poster or advertisement for a ‘job’ that is traditionally held by an animal and has been under-promoted to human applicants (e.g., ‘Housecat’, ‘Good Dog’, ‘Lake Swan’, ‘Feral Possum’… you get the idea.) Post it on a job posting site like monster.com or LinkedIn. Submit a screenshot of the posting.
Item 46 – #BasicSkills Tutorial
There’s an overwhelming wealth of how-to videos on youtube. How to repair a Whirlpool Dishwasher, for instance (I had to watch that one recently) or how to groom your golden retriever (had to watch that one too), but it’s hard to find tutorials on some of the more basic life skills. Create a tutorial for something we don’t normally get instructional programming for, but that is a necessary skill. For example, you could make a youtube tutorial on how to brush your teeth (but now you can’t do that). Post tagged #BasicSkills and #GISH.
