Grafedia Elevates Graffiti To Art

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the metaverse dept.

joredbar writes "Wired.com has a story about a new phenomenon called Grafedia. This is something new that I never heard of before. Grafedia is hyperlinked text, written by hand onto physical surfaces and linking to rich media content - images, video, sound files, and so forth. Grafedia can be written in letters or postcards, on the body as tattoos, on the street, or anywhere you feel like putting it. Viewers 'click' on these Grafedia hyperlinks with their cell phones by sending a message addressed to the word + "@grafedia.net" to get the content behind the link."

    'Graf-whatever elevates graffiti to commerce' sounds more appropriate. A great deal of graffiti already is art. It doesn't have to be linked to the web to be art. You morons.
