Stupid Tw**t is an interactive installation projected publically in Durham, UK.
The installation takes the form of a twitter client projected on an outdoor projection surface. Participants tweet celebrity names to be included in the projection however rather than simply displaying tweets about that person, Stupid tw**t swaps the names of the 'tweeter' and 'tweetee' so the tweet 'Barack Obama is not an American' by @averageJoePlumber would appear in the feed as 'averageJoePlumber is not an American'
By confusing the identities of subject and object, the piece plays with the nature of twitter celebrity.
Stupid Tw**t was commissioned by Empty Shop, Durham emptyshop.org/ as part of Design Event design-event.co.uk/
