France professionalizes ‘Happy Slapping’
8 March 2007In France only professional journalists are allowed to beat up people, film it and publish the video on the net. If you are not a journalists you have to groove on the happy memory of your violent acts or pay one of those painters at Montmartre and Centre Pompidou to do quick sketches of the happy action. Depending on your artistic taste you buy the drawing or you have the painter do a full color painting which you can pick up 30 min later.
If that is not web 2.0 enough for you, just organize a flash mob gathering of journalists before you get going. The elegant part is that they will not only do the filming, but also take care of publishing the footage for you at no extra charge.
