Photograph pedestrians in Downtown Detroit before and after wearing a red, foam clown nose.

We chose downtown Detroit, Campus Martius area, as the location for this particular experiment. It was a brisk day, but there were many people out and walking around downtown. You can use your best judgement to see, did the red noses change the ‘level of silliness’ of the people below?

Thank you to everyone who participated in experiment #002. We appreciate your silliness!
