Blu Dot Real Good Experiment

Curb-mining is the act of finding furniture and art on the street. Blu Dot, a Soho based furniture company, is attempting to track the curb-mining habits of the New York City residents by leaving chairs scattered throughout the city.

Using a built-in tracking device, the chairs tweeted their whereabouts for several days. Finally the Blu Dot team came a knockin' and interviewed some of the lucky owners in the video.

Putting a tracking device on something, then going to the house of someone who picked it up sounds like a good way to get an ass-kicking, at the very least. Not...too...smart.
