POSTER BOY IN NYC

An anonymous 25-year-old artist by the name of “Poster Boy” is switching up ads in NYC subways like crazy. He inconspicuously alters posters and makes them obscene,  satirical or simply thought-provoking. According to NYmag.com, he has manipulated over 200 this year. Naturally, the MTA snatches them down quickly, but here is a gallery of some of his finest. Gotta love the Mos Def “New World Water.” Yes!

NYC TESTS NEW LIGHTS

New York City is testing a small batch of LED streetlights (6) that redesign not only the light, but the entire lamppost as well. With current bulbs rated for about 24,000 hours, the new LED models, which rate for between 50,000 and 70,000 hours, would be a huge upgrade. In addition to lasting longer AND looking fresher, the LEDs would also use 25% to 30% less energy and emit no harmful chemicals or toxins when discarded. If the initial test goes well look for the cities to start slowly replacing the old joints with these fancy shmancy upgrades. I swear we’re getting closer and closer to some Minority Report ish!
