The Graffiti Research Lab + Audiobombing

"walls have got ears", now they've got a mouth !

Audio graffiti ! What the hell is that !

A new eccentric way to express yourself in the streets using audio tapes and a modified tape player. Stick the audio tape on a wall, then with the "playhead spray can" (the modified tape player) you are ready to listen to the hidden messages on the tape !!!
How these american students came up with that nerdy idea, i don't know, but i can't resist to post something here . The art of bricolage is always fascinating ...
Listen to the walls tonight !

Graffiti Research Lab

Another incredible project from The Graffiti Research Lab using a high-tech L.A.S.E.R. TAG system.
In its simplest form the Laser Tag system is a camera and laptop setup, tracking a green laser point across the face of a building and generating graphics based on the laser's position which then get projected back onto the building with a high power projector.

LP#4My little chinese colored flexidiscs from the 50's/60's

Nostalgia ...
I went to china 3 years ago, and i feel nostalgic today about that trip, i feel like listening again to that crappy flexidiscs i bought in Beijing on a flea market.
--
And i want to share them with my few readers, these little chinese vinyl records, they are incredibly attractive : very thin, translucid and in color RGB flexidiscs ! Operettes, traditionnal songs and classical orchestra favorites, and even some easy listening surf rock. The sound of the vinyl rips is a bit scratchy of course : ( , but consider where i've bought them, believe me it is not that bad. Sweet vinyl records !
Check the wonderful portable turntable that comes along with them.

--#01 a red 45rpm.
The first share is a Red 45rpm. I really don't know anything about what these 4 songs refers to, it is a kind of easy-listening chinese operette with strings and male or female vocalists. Have a listen, This is China back in the years, follow the links !

--#02 a green 45rpm.
This one is an exotica rock instrumentals record. Very quiet and peaceful. Easy listening steel guitar, hawain style ukulele. Sit back, relax and enjoy ! Once again sorry for the bad quality, i have to cut some two of the songs because of the heavy background noises.
