Dear Tom, It appears I am about a year late in discovering this article, as you I am three days late and a buck short. However being involved with the subculture of Spacecraft I feel that you have given us not the fairest of shakes and also didn't do much homework into the company. You should check out the latest works as we are much more than a company trying to sell stuff, I'd say it's more of a non-profit organization that uses the manufacturing of mobile art to enable communities elsewhere. Please feel free to contact me back at pduffyleg@yahoo.com

I think you may have to reconsider your devotion to an "artform" that is so easily replaced by marketing without you noticing.

My favorite was back in Boston--somebody made a bunch of tiny full-color Where's Waldo? Waldo stickers and you would occasionally see him in the damnedest places. It was obviously just somebody having fun--not someone doing "marketing" for the publisher of the books.

Christofour, thanks for the pointer. Those are really clever.

I am so much for the appreciation of street art and I too feel "disenchanted" by this discovery of Spacecraft's pissy, marketing ploy. I'd now like to bring your attention to Googly Eye Cru. GECru utilizes vinyl stickers, however, it seems they are solely in it for the silly. I like that.
