darc.jp - back up, after a fashion.

some of you may have noticed my site has been down for a while. I ran out of money for hosting and with the grid launching soon (hopefully) I decided not to drop big money on the pricy server I used before. But circumstance has forced my hand and I needed to at least get a place holder/email addys up again, so I got a cheapo Japanese host for a a few months and put this up. The final product is going to be quite a bit different but till then, at least my URL goes somewhere ;)

Tokyo Stickers ~5 hit combo~

Graffiti in the traditional spray-paint tagging sense is definitely a feature of Tokyo’s urban landscape, but in the hipper, more happening parts of the city like Harajuku, Shibuya and Shinjuku, Something you notice on almost every wall, signboard and lamppost are these stickers. Some are advertising but most is just street design. Simple, effective and very nicely done. Has this trend taken hold in any of the cities you guys inhabit?
