A tragicomic film plays across 80 billboards in Times Square every night this month

Talk about making use of the infamous Times Square electronic billboards: every night this month from 11:57pm through midnight, passerby will be treated to a tragicomic film played across 80 billboards.

Part of the Times Square Arts' Midnight Moments series-the longest-running digital art exhibit in the world-the project is called "Building Things" and it is the brainchild of John Wood and Paul Harrison, the British duo of artists who go by Wood & Harrison. Bowery destination Cristin Tierney Gallery co-presents the project.
