Darn. Now I can only hope noone steals my awesome idea of putting spraycans on a quadrocopters and use it to paint impossible spots!!111

(no really that would be awesome. though it would need awesome precision)

Just what we need, more morons thinking they’re “brightening up” the place with their unwanted childish, illegal mess. Good publicity for them too

Vandalism. Thanks, hackaday.

From the touched-up look of that wall, it’s evident the owner has removed graffiti before, which says to me that such “improvements” are definitely unwanted.

You want to add your art to a building? Ask first.

Better to ask forgiveness than permission. This is too cool. Thanks HaD

Grow up dext3r, walt and see it for what it is.

Would it be any different if it were a cool machine for painting logos on the bonnet of your car? No – same damage, same costs, only to you so it would (probably, if you’re vaguely normal) be unacceptable and you’d report the crime.

Stupidity, and stupidity of HaD’s part for publishing it, but they have every right to do so, just as I’ve every right to point out the stupidity of it.

this is amazing. It seems like he left a bit of room for expansion, but this was a very well-thought out and well-executed idea.

I understand that many people consider graffiti vandalism, but I personally think it purely depends on the situation. Obviously, defacing any property so it is unusable or an immediate inconvenience to somebody is vandalism. But the idea of placing artwork on abandoned buildings and the such intrigues me, and depending on the trouble involved for the opposing party it can be completely appropriate.

just my two cents.

the spot looks much better with the rainbow. thumbs up for decorating this ugly grey property.

this is awesome. please continue to post cool projects like this, regardless of the “documentation rule”

He built this “for an art exhibit in San Diego.” If you go to the website, it says this video was made for the museum. Obviously he has permission to use this and therefore this is not vandalism.

Do a little research before you blame people for something they did not do.

It seems somewhat overcomplicated for something that could be achieved with a pole, duct tape, and some string.
