meters.... rua passos manuel, porto.

2004-06-25T09:42:00.000-07:00

once again, it's difficult to frame a picture without seeing the screen and with the sun in your face... i'll try to improve though.

2004-06-25T09:40:00.000-07:00

cedofeita, porto.

tagged sticker. i like the fleur de lis.... it always has its charm. do a search on google and you'll be amazed at how many times and how many different places it has popped up throughout history.

2004-06-25T09:28:00.000-07:00

stencil, unknown artist. simple, dodgy execution, underspray :\ i like it anyway.

2004-06-25T09:20:00.000-07:00

wasted, early one morning.

2004-05-30T17:39:00.000-07:00

while working...

2004-05-30T17:36:00.000-07:00

toilet facilities @ faculdade de belas artes, porto. i went there to see the football game with some friends that study there, and get wasted (25cents a beer). these were stuck to each of the 3 or 4 urinals, inside an already pretty interestingly decorates wc. i'm not ironizing, it really is. anyway, some of these had captions with teacher's names on.

2004-05-30T17:30:00.000-07:00

chinese store. undisclosed location. this one is for when i get some spare change. *sigh*

old skool...

2004-05-24T19:07:00.000-07:00

this is a new urban tribe i found.... they live in the garden at palacio de cristal (porto) and if u lay in the sun for a while, and don't make much noise u might see them. they're peaceful, and seem to like all kinds of music.

(2011 reminiscence, partly salvaged from a comment made by an alter-ego... Ernesto Salles:)

taken with a digital camera and not the cell phone... when i saw it together with the other pictures, i couldn't help but notice the difference... even on a smaller version. medium, message, yeah, i could make this look like it was taken on a cellphone, for aesthetic coherence of this blog, but... not really my thing.

2004-05-24T18:49:00.000-07:00

my studio's window when i got there to get some sleep after hours of bouncing around and taking the pictures below on the way home.

2004-05-24T18:39:00.001-07:00

2004-05-24T18:36:00.000-07:00

stickers... one by dheo, the others tags... i couldn't really frame the picture because these were stuck high on a traffic sign so i couldn't see the screen on the cellphone. so... composition is pure luck.

2004-05-24T18:33:00.000-07:00

2004-05-24T18:31:00.000-07:00

2004-05-24T18:24:00.000-07:00

stickers... dheo and unknown artist of which i've posted another sticker, and of whom i'm extremely jealous for not having made these stickers myself. i know jealousy is bad, but i'm not apologizing ;)

2004-05-24T18:22:00.000-07:00

dont remember if it's a sticker or a stencil, i was tired coming from a drum and bass party (optical and mc skibadee :D ) when i took most of these.

2004-05-24T18:14:00.000-07:00

by-product of my stage-design class. this is when i really started to like cellphones with cameras on them.

2004-05-24T18:11:00.000-07:00

was walking home from a party early one morning, and saw this, that wasn't there when i'd walked past hours before. not amazing but i like the typography and the scale of it.

2004-05-24T18:09:00.000-07:00

someone's cell phone cover. thought it was cute.

2004-05-24T18:08:00.000-07:00

stencil, by me. lousy execution.

2004-05-24T18:04:00.000-07:00

2004-05-24T18:03:00.000-07:00

construction site right next to my house

2004-05-24T17:12:00.000-07:00

dunno if dave is a "local hero or an interantional superstar" (slogan used by industria, a nightclub here in porto), but i've caught glimpses of his stickers around the neighborhood. nice.

2004-05-24T17:04:00.000-07:00

i've seen some other stuff by dheo around, i'll post it as soon as i take pictures
