I kind of want to try this.

Help me help a friend.

If any tumblr people want to join in too that’d be wicked!

I was hoping you guys could help me out with an art project I’m working on!If you have a spare couple of minutes in the next couple of days I need your help finding coffee in your respective cities.

1. On any scrap paper you have, hand write directions from your house (or a major intersection near you) to the nearest place to get coffee. Be as detailed or as vague as you want, pretend you’re directing a stranger. You can give street names or landmarks or cardinal directions, it’s all up to you.

2. Write your name and city at the bottom of the note

3. Take a picture of the directions and e-mail it to jc[dot]lau[at]utoronto.ca (replace accordingly)

It’s perfectly acceptable if it’s low resolution (like on a camera phone or a webcam) and it’s fine if you want to scan it too. 

If you could pass this along to any other international friends you may have, that’d be great too! I’m trying to collect a lot, but I’m not TOTALLY sure how many I’m going to use in the end.

Thanks for your help!
