Some people figure out how to get inside a road sign to change the text and publish the details.
It describes what we see as private vs. public information, and how access to that information has changed with technology. I think that the technology used to build the world around us is still catching up with what’s being done, or what’s possible. New connections are constantly being made, and there is an interesting mix happening with the digital world and the tactile one.
There is also a subversive context to this article that i think is especially relevant. This information is not really “meant” for the public to know, yet here it is. I think as these connections continue to be made, and be made available to the public, more people will take advantage of them.
Also in case it doesn’t go without saying, altering road signs is most definitely illegal.
