If you’ve ever fancied seeing your face blown up to a huge scale and shown on the Piccadilly Circus lights, then all you need to take a photo and send it to them.

(c) Art of London

As part of an art exhibition being shown on the big screen and also at the National Portrait Gallery which will show some 300 celebrities on the screen from the middle of September to the middle of October.

It’s part of a project about mental health, as photos of celebrities is supposed to encourage us to close our eyes and think calming thoughts. I guess that’s dependent on which celeb is on the screen at the moment you look up.

Anyway, if you want to upload a photo of yourself, to be shown on the big screen on 10th October 2023, go here.

In the meantime, enjoy this reminder of when phones started being able to send photos…

SUPPORT THIS WEBSITE

This website has been running now for over a decade, and while advertising revenue contributes to funding the website, it doesn't cover the costs. That is why I have set up a facility with DonorBox where you can contribute to the costs of the website and time invested in writing and research for the news articles.

It's very similar to the way The Guardian and many smaller websites are now seeking to generate an income in the face of rising costs and declining advertising.

Whether it's a one-off donation or a regular giver, every additional support goes a long way to covering the running costs of this website, and keeping you regularly topped up doses of Londony news and facts.

If you like what you read on here, then please support the website here.

Thank you
