The Telemegaphone Dale is an "[art project](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-craftmanship-a-new-world)" where, starting August 2, anyone can call a [special telephone number](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dial-anyone) and shout to the mountaintops.

Yeah, anybody can call, and phone calls will not be screened or delayed. [Drunk dialing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultimate-signalfree-party) just went to a new level.

It's the idea of Magnus Torstensson and Erik Sandelin and is part of "Parafunctional Payphones." I sure hope somebody records all this and posts it somewhere - or better yet, how about live audio? The phone number will be published on [Unsworn.org](http://www.unsworn.org/telemegaphone)
