Geeks do graffiti


Sunday, March 2, 2008

When computer programmers look to express themselves artistically, this is the result. According to CNET.com’s Geek Gestalt blogger, geek graffiti is a small, but growing, trend where geeks — or people with geek-like tendencies — take traditional graffiti tagging and add in a tech-inspired message.

This one, posted on the West Bank side of the wall in Palestine, represents one tech-savvy take on the conflict. The Royal Pingdom blog, calls it “someone wishes for a reboot.” I also enjoyed this oneof the word “amor” (the Spanish word for love) written on a wall in Barcelona. And, finally, while this one is less than artistic, there’s just something inherently adorable about a drunken computer programmer.
