Emerald City Streets


Tuesday, December 13, 2005

121305.15.jpgUrban Archives is an ambitious though egg-heady multidisciplinary effort to record and analyze public spaces and the social aspects of same. (There's a lot more wordy-words on the home site, but that's my takeaway.) As part of this, they've started collecting photos of Seattle graffiti and such, posting it online in cooperation with the University of Washington. Not tons there yet, but a few interesting beginnings, especially for a town not much known for street art.
