Andrea:
It has shown me how long I can stand for one period of time.
Emmanuel:
I'd like to be in the coat room, having a nice place to sit while I draw, and then having people come over and bring their stuff, but then also notice me drawing and just like, "oh wow, you're an artist!" I'm like, "yeah, I am."
Emily

Bobby:
Hi, my name is Bobby Pache and I work with the Visitor Engagement Team here at MoMA PS1. So if I was to talk about my favorite space, it would probably not be any of these pieces I mentioned. I also really like the elevator, the elevators massive, kind of grandiose feeling. It kind of makes you feel small, even though I'm a six foot man that's 220 pounds. I feel really small on this elevator and it's because the elevator's probably the height, or maybe a little bit shorter of the actual floors. I remember one time there was a light show exhibit and they put lights in the elevator too so it had this awesome experience of the semi reflective metal material was reflecting these neon lights and you just have this fun, cute little moment in the elevator between floors.
So another artist that exhibited at MoMA PS1 was Jim Ferraro and he actually designed audio tracks to be played in the elevator, which was kind of awesome. So the visitors would come into the elevator, they would travel for a floor or two, and they'd actually be listening to some like interesting tracks curated by the artists. So it's this really nice way to like kind of enrich the experience no matter what part of the building you were in. Since we're on the elevator topic, another artist that we have to mention is this long name, Longmont Potion Castle. So the work that he inputted into the elevator was also audio, but they were prank calls. So you get into the elevator, you would just travel a floor or two and you would hear these kind of insane pranks that would be happening and you would leave the elevator laughing hysterically.
