Using an array of disorganized smartphones, it would be possible if GPS accuracy was good enough to make each smartphone function as a pixel.
If everyone held their smartphone up high with a special app. They can synchronize a video to all the smartphone. If there is enough, then you have a massive
video display.

Gps accuracy is nowhere near good enough but I bet they could figure out a way to distribute video signal to a bunch of phones that know of eachother where they are, so yeah bun. |

Sounds like another use for the pantographic mobile phone wossername, but this time like a periscope. Given a 10:1 ratio the GPS accuracy should be pretty good, and the mobile phone screen would be bounced between the periscope mirrors. If that makes any sense. |

This could still work without GPS provided that everyone remained in their assigned seat. The incentive would be that if you want to sit on the floor in the center, you have to abide by certain rules. |

[+] To locate everyone without GPS, a "coordinator"
phone could capture a few seconds of video of the
array at the same time that the displays are
individually sequenced through with some kind of
calibrating image (all red screen). If you know you
sent a particular phone a red screen at a particular
time, a video of the gang could be used to resolve
the locations. |

A cheaper way to do the "seat" location display, is to place a
QR code in front of each seat. Where each website page is
for a particular seat, and represents a single pixel. |

So therefor no app install needed. :D |
