Academic turns city into a social experiment - Harvard
Gazette, March 11, 2004
Former Bogota Mayor Antanas Mockus implemented some unusual activities
to modify city behavior. Halfway down the page is a list of the
mayor's other unusual initiatives.
Also
here: Pedestrians are also targets for "mime behavioral
therapy." Pickpockets, jaywalkers, and other lawbreakers
are liable to be followed down the street by the mime artists,
who imitate their every move. The idea is that they will be embarrassed
into changing their ways, much to the hilarity of the large crowds
that gather to watch the antics.
Also: Current Bogota Mayor Enrique Penalosa visited
Bangkok last March to promote Bus Rapid transit.
