The Joydick is going to be demonstrated at Arse Electronika 2009 and we are seeking one brave man and one brave woman to demonstrate video game play during the opening night ceremony. Actual “game play” will be hidden from the audience by a screen.
And yes, we said woman!
Here is a small sneak peak of the yet unnamed (and unfinished) wearable female Atari controller. Full details and DIY instructions coming soon!
Participants must live in the San Francisco bay area, must be at least 18 years of age and able to provide a valid US passport and must be comfortable being filmed for archival purposes.
Women, act today (Friday the 25th) and we may be able to throw in a custom-made Atari themed corset!
Interested parties should contact info [dot] sfmedialabs {at} gmail [dot] com.
Graffiti Taxonomy: Paris, 2009…
A study depicting the stylistic diversity found in Parisian graffiti tags. Now on display at Fondation Cartier’s Born In The Streets – Graffiti exhibition until November 29, 2009.
Over 2,400 graffiti tags were photographed from April 24 to April 28, 2009, from each of Paris’s 20 districts. All photographs were archived, tagged and sorted by letter. The ten most commonly used letters by Paris graffiti writers were identified for further study (A,E,I,K,N,O,R,S,T and U). From each letter grouping, eighteen tags were isolated to represent the diversity and range of that specific character. These sets are not intended to display the “best” graffiti tags in Paris, but rather aim to highlight the diversity of forms ranging from upper case to lowercase, simple to complex and legible to cryptic. For more information go here.
