I'm sad...
Links to all of our "Ghosts of a Chance" artworks are broken.
The images are still there, though.
Such as:
http://americanart.si.edu/images/2008/2008.GOAC.3.5_1a.jpg

If you ever registered and set up an album, you can still see the thumbnnails but the stories and links to the actual item are missing or take you to the home page.

They did -- at ARGFest 2008, they launched Ghosts of a Chance by getting a bodybuilder to run through the conference covered wearing only henna tattoos and a banana hammock.

The game itself had people creating their own artifacts for a series of missions. There were also a few live events, culminating in one fairly big (and mostly replayable) event at the Luce Foundation Center of the Smithsonian American Art Museum.

Ghosts of a Chance website for a full recap (the Final Recap pdf is fairly informative).

HA. Thank you for introducing me to the term "banana hammock."

I love personally love Phoebe's new name (in Friends) - "Princess Consuela Bananahammock", to be creative. Then she learned what it was... Laughing

Neat little meta preview about Pheon, from @Bathlander

I don't see any banana hammocks, but a girl can dream, I guess.
