Media Circus

Media Circus is a LED scrolling marquee that displays amusing and nonsensical newspaper headlines. The text changes daily from a list of about 1000 stored online.

Here are some examples of headlines from July 2011:

  • Warship contract would bring sea constituent file-shredding
  • Autopsies reveal little on a crowded planet
  • Fatal crash in a life without sunshine
  • Economy shrank in urban orchards

It ran in the NSCAD North Block, Fountain Campus from 2013-2020. It is no longer operational.

A book featuring 365 Media Circus headlines in 2012 is available from Blurb.com.
