Fun and Playful Reinterpretation of an Ordinary City by Sandrine Estrade Boulet

Why should we have to do this by digital transformation? I mean, get out there all you graffiti artists, pranksters, and artistically inclined citizens, and transform the actual city! To get you started, try a few mailboxes, or get silly at a cross walk, or modify an exit sign.

C'mon people! Silliness is the only thing that separates us from the apes!

twoleftfeet, that "mailbox" link starts a download... at least for me it did.

I've had a really crappy day, but this is fun and made me smile. Thanks.

It's a link to a .jpg, so at most it should have started a download of an image. But there are ways to be nastier about it. It's not a hard image to come by. Here's
a different link, which should be safe. Maybe the mods can replace the other one.

Mod note: I switched the image. The problem is that it was a hotlink; you were probably still seeing the image from your cache, twoleftfeet, after actually viewing it on the site. Lots of sites have anti-hotlinking measures -- some may not be nice about it.
