Digital Scanner Brush
The folks at MIT have come up with a tool that resembles one of those old shaving brushes which can scan colors & motion to be reproduced on a large computer screen. Check out this Quicktime video. Could be the next big thing in next big things.

NYC Graffiti Law
“Graffiti is on the rise. It's becoming glorified again. We don't have the police we used to and those we have are concentrating on terrorism,” he said.
Yeah, so the folks up there are banning the sale of spray paint and thick markers to people under the age of 21.
As for Taichung, you can have my spray paint when you pry it from my cold, dead hand. That is, if I painted, which I don't. When paint is outlawed only outlaws will have paint.
When I was in high school, I grew a beard and bought beer and booze every weekend for my friends. I predict a trend towards more facial hair in NYC.

Taiphoon
Taiphoon: "Graffiti makes the urban landscape more beautiful than the crappy, dirty, run-down concrete that developers with no humanitarian concerns serve up. Let's face it: we require a 'humane' habitat to live in. We have lived in a beautiful Eden for something on the order of 1,000,000 years, and only within the last 50 years or so have we been herded into these drab, grey, cement horrors called modern cities."
Tell it like it is, brother. Here's a link to some of what's going on in the world of graffiti in Taipei.

Fresh Paint Under the Highway
"F" is a new tag that's been showing up this year. These are under the bridge on the scooter detour headed up towards Tunghai.

I may not be able to find art street, but I know what I like...
Cheers to Poohhat for the heads up on this mural off Art Street near Tunghai University. It's a completely different style, but I love seeing this kind of personalisation on property here. It's like someone inside is marching to the beat of a different DJ... or something like that.
The Resistance. Fill me in on the Resistance. What have I been missing?
Art Street is one of those neighborhoods in Taichung where you don't feel like you're in Taichung. I only saw one 7-11, no Starbucks, and the nearest McDonald's was miles away. I'd love to live up there, but it's so far from everything down in the city.
