We put together a tasty photo and video essay on (d)N0t.

The scope of this thing was pure San Francisco – enormous, senseless and shameless.

The United Nations Commission on Costumes & Holidays (UNCCH) strenuously condemns the pillow conflict which occurred at Justin Hermann Plaza on February 14th. Our unpillowed multinational observer force was repeatedly ambushed by pilitants, in grave violation of International Pillow Law, the 2005 Reykjavik Accords on Pillow Conflict, and UN Resolution 0190 (2009.)

The United Nations once again calls for an end to pillow conflict by 2015.

Stunning photos and video! Makes me wish that I’d made it over there this year but also makes it almost okay that I didn’t since I get to live vicariously here.

this comment is only to mention that i tried replacing the SD version of the vid i’d posted to vimeo (and mentioned in an earlier comment here) with an HD version and it’s now giving me problems, so it may be a couple of days before my pillow fight vid works. . .
