THE INVASION OF CLERMONT-FERRAND

The first (two?) invasion wave(s) of the center of Clermont-Ferrand occured in the year 2000 and consisted 8 space invaders, 4 of them are still there (including 1 re-activation) and flashable.

In January 2016 Clermont-Ferrand was invaded again, the 3rd invasion wave took place:

"At the occasion of the screening of the very last version of the movie Art4Sspace at the Interntional Short Film Festival of Clermont-Ferrand, I have added 31 new creations to the city of the center of France. Among various themes, they refer to movies and cinema but also to what Clermont Ferrand is famous for : its gothic cathedrale, its volcanos, its Michelin factories and its Serge Gainsbourg street" (Invader)

Second Best "52 Weeks Project"

Since I have been joining the 52 Weeks Project on Flickr it has happened several times that I had to chose between two or more self portraits that week. A difficult choice. The solution is to create a set of all good alternatives. Life is full of choices and sometimes a week has too much opportunities. This is one of those alternatives, the second best. And sometimes just as good.

 

Just a selfie in Clermont-Ferrand...

Location: Centre du Clermont-Ferrand, La Jetée. "Sauve Qui Peut Le Court Metrage", the "Studio cinématographique", the center of the short film festival.

Coordinates: 45°46'38" N 3°5'21" E

Reason: Not a specific reason at all. This second best "52-Weeks" selfportrait is made during my 3-day road trip to the city of Clermont-Ferrand to visit, capture and flash (by the online game FlashInvaders) all space invaders of Clermont-Ferrand.

Official "52" of this week: 15/52 Pelloche Ciné

Weather: Almost sunny, 14° C

Self-portrait technics: Joby portable gorillapod mounted on a street pole, selftimer on 10 seconds.

PA_312 [10 points]

As far as I remember and hunt on space invaders in Paris and beyond (the year 2005) I have seen only seen this space invader for more than 35 percent destroyed. Not flashable on the online game smartphone application FlashInvaders untill June 2015 when of the space invader fans in Paris restored PA_312 and made it 'flashable' again. A perfect job with exactly the same tiles (color, size, material). Two reasons for this revisit: to see this one in full glory and in order to win 10 points in the FlashInvaders game.

One of the many new old space invaders in Paris. Never seen the 'original' in the early days of my space invader hunt which started somewhere in 2004 and 2005. But this succesful re-activation is flashable with the online game FlashInvaders so the work has been approved by Invader.

In total 4 new flashable space invaders in Rotterdam since July 28th. Thanks to the re-activation team two totally new (re-activated) space invaders for me and two flashable ones.

This one is located in between the neighbourhoods Oude Westen and Middelland in Rotterdam West.

I went there for the first time within 2 days after re-activation but came back for a better photo with more sunlight. The express road S100 is diving under this one.

THE INVASION OF ROTTERDAM

In the year 2001 the city of Rotterdam has been invaded by Invader. It was the 8th city in the world being invaded. In 4 days Invader put 26 space invaders (1 hidden bonus) on the walls of Rotterdam. Sometimes hidden sometimes on very visible locations. As we speak (*September2019) about 21 of 26 space invaders are there. Fifteen of them due to the work of the re-activations. Seven of them are still the original space invaders of 2001 put up by Invader.

On the night of February 19th, Invader added four space invaders in Paris. A striking detail is that these four (PA_1556 through PA_1559) use a new type of mosaic tile with a slightly curved front. I'm posting these four in the order I visited and flashed them. I came to Paris on the beautiful sunny day of February 25th to photograph these four in good lighting conditions. PA_1557, however, will never experience direct sunlight. It's located near Pont Neuf.

But during wave 3 in August 2020 the number of space invaders went up to 97. In total 84 space invaders on my list again.

MARS_65 [30 points]

Another great Marseillan space invader looking out over the sea and beach of Marseille.

Till August 2020 I found and flashed all 13 space invaders of wave 1 (MARS_01 - MARS_11 - 2004 and wave 2 (MARS_12 and MARS_13). But during wave 3 in August 2020 the number of space invaders went up to 97. In total 84 space invaders on my list again.

A blue brown duo space invader from which I have never seen the original. I remember me searching for this one around 2005 and 2006 because of the photo of Tofz4u taken in the year 2002.

Invader is making space invaders which adapts the location. Not only the kind of building but also to the kind of business or store its located. This one in the 6ème is a perfect example. Pour Agnes :) is what the application FlashInvaders states when you flash this one.

One yellow 'runner' in the 11ème arrodnissement came back as a result of a succeeded re-activation. I have never seen the original of this one in person. The fountain is Fontaine de Charonne (1724).

The 161th space invader in Paris and the 164th space in the world. One month before Invader installed this orange invader with mirror eyes he installed it's first two international space invaders in Antwerpen and number one in Lille (autoroute A1) before returning to Paris.

A very high above the ground (8th floor!) double black and white space invader. Another space invader worth 100 points in the same street installed in 2016 (the other one is PA_1205, "house is in da house").

Visited on the perfect moment of the day, the early morning.

This huge project was number 3378 in the world made by Invader.

A space invader on a very busy location. Never seen the original of this one but thanks to the splendid work of the Re-activation team this gradient space invader is back in the 14ème arrondissement in Paris. Visible, capturable and flashable. But mind the traffic here!

PA_273 [20 points]

The 273rd Space Invader in Paris was declared almost dead because of the months-long presence of scaffolding agains the facade of this building. To my great joy I saw that the scaffolding was removed and the space invader was still present. At the time of my 'revisit' the Paris Fire Department (Pompiers de Paris) were there to resque. Not sure what was going on, nothing serious (I hope). PA_273 is not dead, deleted or damaged. It's still in good condition and flashable (FlashInvaders)

This apple space invader was desactivated in the year 2013 and I therefor never flashed it with the FlashInvaders application game. Thanks to the wonderful work of the re-activation team I have this one in my gallery as well.

A good example of a re-activated space invader I forgot to revisit for a FlashInvaders treatment. Done when I was walking from PA_942 to the métro station. A piece of Seth was a real bonus!
