Let's see a sloth in time lapse, so it moves quickly, set to your favorite dance music. (all videos to be time-lapsed down to 14 sec max) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ... ah, yes... some simple video editing fun!

(Time lapse this down to 10 seconds.) Dressed in something celebratory, hug someone you love, motionless, in a very crowded location. You must hug them for 20 minutes without moving and time lapse it. Add your favorite score to the video. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ A clock to catch the passage of time, an lap a basket full of kale... Thanks to John and Meg for camera duties!

(Video may be up to 45 seconds.) Have an elderly relative take you back to an important location from their childhood and have them recount a memory of that spot. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mary did not want her face shown, but recounted her kindergarten days in the early 1930's

Go to the top of a building and communicate with 4 other people on the rooftops of 4 other buildings using flags and the Flag Semaphore system as a mode of communication. The first person must spell out "GISHWHES". The second must spell out "MAKES" and the next must spell out "ME" and then the fourth must finish the sentence with whatever they wish. ***** Subtitle each one on the video. ******* (all videos to be time-lapsed down to 14 sec max) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ So - with no flags, and no one who knew semaphore, this one was creative! Hubby made 4 sets of flags; my crazy niece & nephew and son pitched in... we found 4 rooftops and each person had their letters in a printed chart, taped to the roof at their feet! Silly hats, all around!

Use a cutting edge 3D printer to 3D print your representation of the 4th dimension. (all videos to be time-lapsed down to 14 sec max) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ .. well - if you start with a simple cube... and warp it thru time, what does it become? The wonderful folk at HackForge Windsor lent their 3-D printer and programming skills to assist me with this one.

Tour a wastewater/sewage treatment factory dressed in formal attire with an accompanying violinist or flutist. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Many thanks to my sister, Meg... who rushed home from work and accompanied us with her violin! .. oh - and Kale! - please notice her Kale earpiece... bonus points for including kale!

Make a macrame holster for a pistol. --------------------------------------------------------------------- first to find a pistol! Best I could do was a spring-loaded BB air pistol ( we're in Canada, eh?) Then my dear friend DeBo made excellent suggestions as how to best design this... more wine was involved.

Everyone has cell phones, so phone booths sit unused for many days. Re-imagine and repurpose a phone booth. Show a passer-by using it in a new way. ---------------------------------------------------------------- ... as a teddy bear rain shelter ;-) .... after the incredible amount of icky spider webs were cleaned out!

Create a beautiful tribute to the late Leonard Nimoy. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Many thanks to a visual pun Giulia Forsythe had shared... The best honour I can think of… something every scientist ( and geek!) will want… their very own SPOCKet Protector. Daily fully functional usage in all great science labs.

Get a coffee shop to create and run a drink special for Gishwhes and have it advertised on their menu board. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Milk Café, Windsor was gracious enough to play along - thanks, folks! Special thanks to Jesse Nicole for playing along!

The problem with growing kale is that hipsters are always trying to sneak into my garden to steal it! Show what a trap would look like to catch these pests. Extra points if you capture (alive) a real life hipster. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ... a Kale Café with free wine and i-toys seemed the best solution - pull the phone and the net drops! ;-)

Kick back in a hammock that's suspended from trees on opposite banks of a river. (Make sure it's a safe section of a river to be suspended over.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ... we'd scouted for local "rivers" and determined that the stretch of Little River that ran through the golf course was likely the best... when we came back two days later to do the shoot, it was after a massive storm... and the water was over a foot deeper! I was standing, mid-current , with the camera on tripod in thigh deep water to shoot this ;-)

Create a short "Supernatural"-related horror story out of the abbreviations of the elements of the Periodic Table. You may only use each letter from each abbreviation once (so you'd have roughly - 225 letters to use). The more coherent the story, the better. ------------------------------------------------------------------- *many thanks to DeBo, who knew what Supernatural was about... and was willing to drink wine and laugh thru this game.
