CALLING ALL HONG KONG GRAFFITI WRITERS!!!!
Calling all Hong Kong graffiti writers! I will be doing a demo of my soon to be released Graffiti Anlaysis 2.0 software (which looks like this) at Input/Output gallery this Friday as part of October Contemporary. Everyone is invited to come try the system and capture your tag or signature into a 3d digital environment using custom motion tracking software. Tags will be displayed in the gallery for the length of the exhibition. Free beer, free software...... and potentially rap music. (Non-graffiti writers also welcomed). If anyone knows Busyb, please tell him/her/them to come. IMNACP (I Am Not A Cop Promise).
Also on display will be work by HK locals Cheng Cho-Yiu and Desmond Leung.

MJ Monument Competition.... "Baddest In Show"
Proposal:
"The monument is a digital display which counts down to the moment when all of Micheal Jacksons’ creative content will enter the public domain. In 70 years when the clock reaches zero it will play Billy Jean on loud speakers, making it the first time the song is played free of copyright. An online version of the countdown can be seen here. The monument is not location specific, and could be adapted to other venues."
Other finalists and jury comments up here: http://www.bustler.net/index.php/michael_jackson_competition/winners/
Thanks to Archinect, Bustler and Jerry (for poking me to apply). Can't wait to get my 1/1 gold crown T!
