Here is the source news article with some pictures of the defaced PSP art: http://www.secondaryscreening.net/static/archives/2005/11/index.html
I'm not surprised. I knew the graffiti itself would be vandalised or written over. Most graffiti out there meets the same fate
Now if only people were this adament about getting rid of gang graffiti...
you know, I wouldn't put it past Sony to do something like that for advertising...
true cheezy. Marking over the faces with red paint is rather retarded. If they hate it so much, why not paint over it? Infact it just make the building look even worse.
How ironic. The residents destroy the grafitti because it's vandalism. Look at what the hell they are doing.
Vandalising the graffiti will only encourage more graffiti.
I'm more confident that Sony Haters (It is a very clear definition, and obviously a big crowd these days.) took it upon themselves to do it, not "residents" that were "fed up with the grafitti." Hands down, this is a good point-- "If people were really annoyed about this artwork because they didn't like how it looked, then how does spraying red paint on them and anti-Sony messages beside them make a better picture?" I smell haters and fanboys.
these people should be worrying about those gang related graffiti instead of these psp.
LOL! That's pretty low for a corporate entitiy to subsidize the defacing of public property like that. I mean, don't they know about Moss Graffiti yet????? It's much nicer! ;-) http://forums.lycaeum.org/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=4&t=000775
