    Alchoholic Architecture - what?

    I ran into this site about the alcohol experience through vapor. It called "Alcoholic Architure" and is Soho in London - anyone heard of this?

    Bompas & Parr: Alcoholic Architecture

    Described as, "the UK's first walk in cocktail. Alcoholic Architecture saw Bompas & Parr create a walk-in cloud of breathable cocktail." What? People put on suits to protect clothes and walk into a vapor space filled with Gin? A quicker buzz? Creative space? What is this phenom? Another way to imbibe?

    From the London View...
    "Breathable Cocktail
    Alcoholic Architecture is just that; the pop up bar is actually a walk in gin and tonic. As you step through the doors you’ll be encapsulated by a cloud of breathable cocktail. Bompas and Parr have created a gin and tonic mist, complemented by the decor of the bar consisting of oversized limes and huge straws to give the impression of sitting within a giant cocktail. You have to pre-book tickets for hourly slots between 7pm-9pm, costing just ?5.

    Now the Science Part
    If you enjoy savouring an ice cold G and T after a long day at the office then the pop up Alcoholic Architecture bar may be a little disappointing although the novelty factor is obvious, which is perhaps why this bar is only open for a total of four days. Bompas and Parr have latched on to the clever idea of basically creating an alcoholic vapour that you walk into and breathe in rather than having to drink. The steam is produced using a system utilised in Antony Gormley's installation at the Hayward in 2007 called Blind Light. It may not quench your thirst but it has the same effect as drinking the liquid version of a gin and tonic."
