aglomeraţie spontană

Definition:
Flash mob -- un grup mare de oameni care se adună într-un loc definit dinainte, fac o acţiune scurtă, după care se dispersează rapid. Noul mod de distracţie, o modalitate de a-se exprima şi de a participa la ceva amuzant cu elementele de conspiraţie. Dacă sunt intrebări, deseori flash mobsterii răspund că au ieşit la o plimbare, admiră priveliştea sau sunt aici după cumpărături fără să-şi dezvăluiască participarea la o "aglomeraţie spontana" (aşa se traduce denumirea fenomenului).
