Playa Phone

Playa Phone

For the rest of the week of Burning Man, a phone booth is standing on the dusty street corner of 3:30 and Ceiba, in front of the Temple of the Flying Spaghetti Monster in Black Rock City, Nevada for anyone to use. 在“火人节”(Burning Man)剩余的活动期间,内华达州黑石城 3:30 和 Ceiba 的尘土飞扬的街角,矗立着一个电话亭,就在“飞天意面神教神庙”前,供任何人使用。

If someone knows the number of a friend or loved one, they can call almost anywhere in the world for 5 minutes for free. Or you can call it and someone walking past might pick it up. 如果有人知道朋友或亲人的号码,他们可以免费拨打全球几乎任何地方的电话,通话时长为 5 分钟。或者,你也可以拨打这个号码,路过的陌生人可能会接听。

Call the phone 拨打该电话

Dial +1 (775) 557-4848 to try to talk to a random Burner. Or add Playa Phone as a contact to make it easier to call later. 拨打 +1 (775) 557-4848,尝试与一位随机的“火人节”参与者通话。或者将“Playa Phone”添加为联系人,以便日后更方便地拨打。

If the phone is already in use, you’ll get a busy signal. If it rings six times and hangs up, nobody answered. Don’t be surprised if you have to call repeatedly. 如果电话正在使用中,你会听到忙音。如果响铃六声后挂断,说明无人接听。如果需要多次拨打才能接通,请不要感到惊讶。

Did you get a call from this number? 你是否接到了来自这个号码的电话?

You were called from a friend, loved one, or maybe a random stranger at Burning Man who was walking past our phone booth and decided to dial your number. 给你打电话的可能是你的朋友、亲人,也可能是火人节上一位路过我们电话亭并决定拨打你号码的陌生人。

If your phone silenced the call because it was an unknown number, add Playa Phone as a contact to make your phone more likely to ring if they call back. 如果你的手机因为是未知号码而静音了来电,请将“Playa Phone”添加为联系人,这样如果他们再次拨打,你的手机更有可能响铃。

How does it work? 它是如何运作的?

This is an ordinary phone booth that I’ve replaced the internals of to not accept payment and to make phone calls over the Internet. 这是一个普通的电话亭,我更换了其内部装置,使其无需付费,并通过互联网进行通话。
