 		Missing Unicorn
Possible ARG?
A few days ago I saw this: http://gothamist.com/2010/10/29/missing_unicorn.php

This morning one of the posters was on a pole in front of my building (far FAR from Central Park) so I googled and found this: http://missingunicorn.com/

Looks like the beginning of something to me...

 		Links out to the website of a Camomile Hixon: http://camomilehixon.com/

She seems to be an artist in New York.

Her news page...

November 11 2010 - Missing Unicorn Installation & Exhibition

Performance piece in conjunction with El Taller, NYC Latin American Cultural Center. The piece includes posters blanketing the city, a billboard at 103rd Street and Broadway and artistic contributions from the population of NYC. The show will open November 11, 2010 between 6-8pm at the Grady Alexis Gallery at El Taller. Everyone is invited, afterparty to follow.


Could this simply be a promotion attempt? Don't think there's a game here...

 		Info page says "A unicorn has gone missing and Camomile Hixon is inviting the entire population of NYC to join the search. Won't you please help? Call the Unicorn Hotline at (917) 675-4783 or join the Facebook page and join the search!"

Might be local... there are some pics on the "sightings" page from other cities... maybe I'm jumping the gun.

ETA: And then I realized that the exhibit is made from the stuff she's gathering from the participants... yeah... I jumped the gun.

Ignore me please... I'll be over in the corner...

 		Hey, don't torture yourself.

It might smell of ARG or viral campaign, so by posting it here the collective can investigate.

You did what any one of us would have done. Don't let it stop you in future. Smile
