we are organizing a flash mob That is simillar to the "Bang"
 flash mob that is popular all around the world.

Except we incorporate the "international-chess" theme into 

it as we are promoting a documentary project we're doing that
 is on board-gamers in melbourne.

THE FLASH MOB
The Mob will start out with people mingling in the crowd

 when all of the sudden, 2 individuals would draw an imaginary 
gun at each other which in turn causes a chain reaction of guns 
being drawn (like in those mafia movies!). there will be a huge 
stand off and would shortly turn into a "gun battle" with everyone 
shooting their gun shaped hand and shouting "BANG BANG!"
it ends with everybody falling to the ground dramatically

 when being 'shot'

Here is a youtube link of a similar flashmob:

The background story is that it's an abstract idea of the

 2 chess-game armies fighting each other with guns,
as if the setting is in the modern world.

Details:
Dress in either Black or white.

I would suggest white
because i predict most will turn up in black anyway. 

a king and queen will be chosen and will have a label 

taped to the back and front of his/her shirt to represent the 
leader of the chess Army!

any questions pls sms
chris @ 0430006634 or feel free to write on the wall.

tentatively it'll be on Monday, 24th May.
We will meet outside RMIT Building 9, 

corner of Bowen Street and Franklin Street.

we are aiming for about 50 people or more to participate!
thank you!
