One And Other, by manchestermike on Jul 6, 2009 10:46:01 GMT 1, One And Other by Antony Gormley began this morning - is anyone taking part? I've applied but not been picked yet, still time though...
Info below and live feed on the website...
-------------------------------------
This summer, sculptor Antony Gormley invites you to help create an astonishing living monument. He is asking the people of the UK to occupy the empty Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square in London, a space normally reserved for statues of Kings and Generals. They will become an image of themselves, and a representation of the whole of humanity.
Every hour, 24 hours a day, for 100 days without a break, a different person will make the Plinth their own. If you're selected, you can use your time on the plinth as you like. One & Other is open to anyone and everyone from any corner of the UK. As long as you're 16 or over and are living or staying in the UK, you can apply to be part of this unforgettable artistic experiment.

No idea, surely would come up with something though... missed July & August so it would be September or October now - so probably shivering!

Can't quite see the point of this. One hour is a long time to stand and do nothing. If you failed to appear would the plinth remain available for that hour?
