It's so awesome that someone is doing this and remaining anonymous... And yet at the same time so sad.

Reminds me of a documentary on origami called Between the Folds (http://www.greenfusefilms.com/ -- I believe it's on netflix) where they showed people doing the most ridiculous things by just folding paper. So cool.

It's a great PR move, actually. If the artist now eventually comes forward, he will be instantly famous. Banksy[1] did the same.

Maybe there's something to learn here for startups as well.

Not everybody is in it for the fame and the money.

I hope (s)he does become instantly famous. The work is beautiful and poetic. I'm glad that phoboslab posted this and I'm glad that I coincidentally clicked on the story. There is so much ugliness in this world that I will take beauty anywhere I can get it.

I thought I'd seen something similar before, but when I looked it up I realized they're probably different artists: http://briandettmer.com/

Nice to see a wee bit of Scotland on Hacker News.

They look so fragile and beautiful - impressive they were able to get them in and setup without drawing any attention.

Nice reference, but your wikipedia link is broken (missing an apostrophe) :

Banksy has hung artworks in high profile galleries and museums without being caught or subsequently identified:

Amazing they weren't taken or vandalized TBH.

do you?

I guess librarians have enough common sense to distinguish between art and a bomb
