The building associated with this sign was boarded up, in disrepair and generally a wreck. (kinda like the sign) It has a recent (June) town notice posted on the door saying that the owners have a permit for "partial demolition" of the 2nd floor, and the building cannot be occupied until they obtain a re-occupancy permit, or something. No demolition (partial or otherwise) was in progress, but it sounds like the building will be converted to a new use.
this sign gets filled with stickers and then someone will eventually steal it. it happened a couple times now.
Photoshop, a quick doodle and an old friend of mine you guys will be seeing soon. :) Total time was about 20 minutes mostly spent on tweaking. hehe.
A sign beside the Step Pyramid at Saqqara, that should be taken as it says! Unfortunately, I did see some people at Giza area that I guess didn´t now how to read ... there are similar signs!
We camped at Green River, Utah while exploring Sego Canyon and the San Rafael Swell. The city is one of those places in the desert that is barely hanging on, and the signs around town tell the story.

From the 1960's. Alastair bid on this one and snagged it for only £7. The Colman's Mustard sign cost significantly more than that.
Original photos by otzberg and squareinteeth. I created this to show the complex signage required to facilitate a campus policy that had designated smoking areas, as opposed to 100% smoke-free.

The exhibition "Dialogue: James Bridle and Jonas Staal", Nome Gallery, Berlin.
James Bridle’s exhibition Signs of Life takes its name from Werner Herzog’s film Lebenszeichen (1968), in which three German soldiers patroling a Greek island are driven mad on encountering a vast field of spinning windmills. Bridle’s new work Windmill 03 (for Walter Segal) recreates a traditional Greek windmill from the original location of the film using surplus material from DIY architecture projects Aegina Battery comprises an electricity generator powered by seventy-two Greek lemons dramatizing the power, abilities, and knowledges embodied in the natural world. Five solar panels are engraved with images and named for five species of Radiolarian: microscopic sea creatures who construct elaborate mineral skeletons from silica. Recent optical research has shown that certain forms of engraving can increase the efficiency of solar photovoltaic panels, by trapping certain frequencies of light which would otherwise be reflected. In these works, Bridle invokes the potential of collaboration with the more-than-human world to seek regenerative solutions to the problems that we face, and the possibilities of collective education and agency.
Comrades in Deep Future centers on three works by Jonas Staal that address the notion of the non-human comrade. As Jodi Dean has written, comradeship is “characterized by equality and belonging, by a love and respect between equals so great that it can’t be contained in human relations but spans to include insects and galaxies (bees and stars) and objects themselves.” The Court for Intergenerational Climate Crimes (CICC, 2021-ongoing) is a collaboration between Staal and Radha D’Souza, which consists of a large-scale installation in the form of a tribunal that prosecutes intergenerational climate crimes. Interplanetary Species Society (ISS, 2019) is an alternative biosphere constructed in a former underground nuclear facility in Stockholm. While the spacefaring trillionaire class aims to colonize Mars, ISS instead turns underground: intra-planetary. Part of the alternative biosphere are the Neo-Constructivist Ammonites (2019), which build on the heritage of the Soviet constructivist and productivist artists who argued that in a revolutionary situation, objects become comrades too. Obscur Unions, for Laure Prouvost (2020) takes the form of four drawings printed as flags, which are part of an ongoing collaboration between Staal and artist Laure Prouvost. Their shared works take the form of sites of assembly conceptualized by Staal in which anthropomorphic entities such as plants, arms, branches, tongues, toxins, breasts, and signs created by Prouvost gather as political subjects. Across Staal’s three projects, extinct plants, neo-constructivist ammonites, and insurgent octopi appear as part of an insurgent popular front of earth workers. Human, non-human, more-than-human, and other-than-human alike. United in a struggle for deep futures and a biosphere for all.

A vacuum formed internaly light sign, Sylva, North Carolina. I wonder if the pole may have once sported neon.
The sign reads:
"The area immediately in front of you is wetland. The base of the Symphony Lift was redesigned uphill of this sensitive ecosystem. Wetlands purify water and offer the greatest diversity of habitat.
Sub alpine wetlands are part of the summer range for Black bears and Coastal Mountain black tailed deer. Both species are abundant in this area.
In winter the deer will migrate to lower elevations while a number of bears remain in the area. Unlike the deer that attempt to get out of the snow the bear prefer large snow packs which provide excellent insulation for their dens located nearby in large old growth trees."
Certain projects make me see things I would normally pass by. This week's Flickr Lounge theme is geometries and this sign at the start of my walk has squares, triangles, circles, and parallelograms to spare.

Caption: Unique roadside marker for the town of Shelton, Washington, along US 101 [now on Olympic Highway South]. This is made from a cross-section of a Douglas-fir that started growing about the time Marco Polo was traveling. This community is dependent upon forest industries, and much of the wood used by its mills comes from the nearby Olympic National Forest. Markers read "Shelton, Home of the Evergreen Forest," "Keep Mason County Green," and "Keep Washington Green." Mason County, Washington.
[Sign was originally dedicated in May 1953 at the ninth annual Mason County Forest Festival.]
