Graffiti Archaeology / Discuss

I'm very proud to announce that Graffiti Archaeology has been included in the online catalogue for the Museum of Modern Art's new exhibit, Design and the Elastic Mind. From the catalogue:

Design and the Elastic Mind explores the reciprocal relationship between science and design in the contemporary world by bringing together design objects and concepts that marry the most advanced scientific research with attentive consideration of human limitations, habits, and aspirations. The exhibition highlights designers' ability to grasp momentous changes in technology, science, and history—changes that demand or reflect major adjustments in human behavior—and translate them into objects that people can actually understand and use. This Web site presents over three hundred of these works, including fifty projects that are not featured in the gallery exhibition.

The collection is packed with beautiful, thought-provoking work by some really notable artists, designers, and scientists. It's quite an honor to be included. Thanks to all of you here on Flickr who have been a part of Graffiti Archaeology over the years! It would not be what it is without you.
