Interesting Idea: Urban Camouflage

I like camouflage. I particularly like appropriate camouflage. For example, if you are in downtown New York City, dressing like a street bum is much better camouflage than dressing in a ghillie suit. Ditto if you are hunting--a ghillie suit is much more appropriate than a three piece suit. You get the idea. Today I ran across a very clever art project in which a guy camouflaged himself to look like an Ikea display. Check out http://www.urbancamouflage.de/ and note that the pile of towels, boxes, and shopping bags is actually a guy cleverly camouflaged to look like a display--you would never know there was an actual person in there. Think of all of the information/insight/etc someone could gather this way. Hmmmm
