Data Vandals Newsstand
As part of the MTA’s Vacant Unit Activation Program, the Data Vandals created a data-art kiosk and conversation space on the downtown 6-train platform at 51st & Lexington. When the space is open, it will be a place for conversation, with weekly surveys, changing exhibitions, in-person events, talks, music, and a free newspaper.
Through weekly sticker votes, charts, maps, and quirky drawings, riders can share their experiences with others, opening lines of communication and dialogue. Check out our survey results section to track how the conversation is flowing.
When closed, the outside mural details New York’s history and showcases data and facts for the 52,000 straphangers that pass by daily.
