mobile graffiti
graffiti reappropriated for usage in virtual space - but, i have to ask: is the form's original spirit of dissent lost?
"Grafedia is hyperlinked text, written by hand onto physical surfaces and linking to rich media content - images, video, sound files, and so forth. It can be written anywhere - on walls, in the streets, or on sidewalks. Grafedia can also be written in letters or postcards, on the body as tattoos, 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... Grafedia is a boundless, interactive publishing platform, base, cheap, and easy to use. It is an open system - the places and ways to use it are limitless. With grafedia, every surface becomes potentially a web page, and the entire physical world can be joined with the Internet."

this question came in the IML104 class i TA -- motivated by two students interested in the concept of modern day dissent: its motivators, obstacles, challenges and improbabilities
