The term "all city" comes from graffiti culture and refers to getting ones tag up in all fi5e boroughs in New York City. This project by Ni9e places City Council member based graffiti tags on or around the offices of representatives of each of the five boroughs. Likeness of the Council Members are rendered from a custom DOS application which draws text from current anti sticker graffiti legislation in New York City. From their site: All City Council focuses on new anti-sticker graffiti legislation in New York City. Referencing both hacker and graffiti cultures this project combines digital and urban rebellious elements to create a new form of street art. Images of the New York City Council members are reproduced in ASCII art onto US postal labels. The use of ASCII art is both a clue to the digital nature of the images production as well as a reference to the original form of digital graffiti in cracker readme.nfo files. The use of the postal sticker is also significant as these stickers have a long history in graffiti culture. These labels are taken from post offices and used as a blank canvas for creating graffiti tags in ink and marker. They can be produced in the privacy of the home and applied in public quickly and inconspicuously. All City Council takes advantage of the modular nature of these labels and uses them in conjunction with a home printer for creating small and large scale ASCII imagery. Council members likenesses are printed on single labels as well as large scale tileings of as many as 60 labels. From a distance the text of the ASCII imagery reads as head shots of the City Council members. At close range, however, one can read the text that forms the image to be the legal verbiage of the anti-sticker law itself. The council members are formed from the law which they helped to pass, a law which finds one guilty based on "identifying information appearing on any sticker or decal." Nice.
