    It's finally time for Snapchat's new augmented reality art project to be revealed. The feature, leaked yesterday via the hack of a web countdown clock on art.snapchat.com, puts artist Jeff Koos' signature giant balloon animal installations in several locations, including Champ de Mars, Paris, Central Park, New York, Hyde Park in London, Roundhouse Park in Toronto, Sydney Opera House, Millenium Park in Chicago, Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro, National Mall in Washington DC and Venice Boardwalk in California. So far, it's just Koons' art that's available; there's a web form for other artists to submit their own work for consideration. The countdown ran down at 3PM ET today.
