When Seattle is completely gentrified, I'm going to check myself into a nursing home because all that will be left will be the equivalent of visual Muzak. Until then, people just can't leave anything alone. Every dumpster, meter, pole or sign is a canvas waiting for a personal = political statement. The developers have not been able to win the hearts and minds of the civilians. Block-to-block patrols search for illicit street art and wipe it out. Improvised Expressive Devices (spray paint, stencils and sticker) continue to be used to proliferate human markings in place of those destroyed.
