OneSixty Characters – An exhibition exploring children’s nursery rhymes/songs, games and storytelling from around the globe

OneSixty Characters began by sending out a call worldwide requesting people to text message, via their mobile phones, a line or a fragment from a nursery rhyme or childhood song that was associated with a game.

The results were collated and exhibited as part of an installation at Electrofringe Festival. For the installation twenty texts were shortlisted and presented in vintage hand-held slide viewers. Please see images and examples at Examples.

OneSixty Characters is continuing to collect nursery rhymes. All you have to do is fill in the form on this site. The submissions will be part of an ongoing online exhibition. So please submit a nursery rhyme or childhood song that goes with a game and spread the word to others.
