Sign of mesquite girdler, Oncideres rhodosticta. Arroyo Chico, Tucson, Pima County, Arizona, USA. 18 October 2008.
told my DD that i am bereft-- not only because it was great to take all that stuff to the dumpsters but it was amazing to see what people threw away and considered "recyclable" which might have been why they discontinued the use. but the photo ops there (over the last 4 years since i got back to photography) are legion!!... lest you think our town is unprogressive, we have had curbside pick-up of recyclables for a while now!!
The full story: This sign was one of two here donated by members of the Cobham bus museum. However, it is for a right hand bend so technically in use rather than an exhibit, as is the car park sign. Unfortunately they are moving to Brooklands in June so this won't be working much longer.
There's another version with a guy on life support but my friend was only 'lucky' enough to get this grotty pic on her ciggie packet. Apparently these teeth belong to a construction worker.
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.

Warning Sign "Children" in Banya, Bulgaria, south of Varna. A fine example of the Bulgarian "running" style.
Mareeba, QLD, Australia
The shire of Mareeba has built its strength through the sustainable level of agriculture including coffee, exotic fruit and a once thriving tobacco industry which has now largely been replaced with sugar cane and mangoes.
Signs with political, social, public health, and support have become common in my area this year. In the past there were occasional political signs during elections, but nothing like we are seeing now. There is a collection of those I have spotted in my album: Signs of the Times
Sign: Nationalism unites us... Sectariansim divides us
Found this in the great city of Hidd. Hope the stupid oppsition reads it.
This is a sign outside an izakaya in Anan-shi, Tokushima. It was taken the night of the towns Hikari Matsuri (Japanese only, but with a good Flash intro to the festival). We have a 'Hikari Matsuri' here because a local company invented a kind of LED light that's all over the place. It's a cool little festival, with an Awa Odori too - see my photo of the lights here.
This is from some canyon in Arizona, CA. Picture from the March 2003 spring tour with my choir from Monmouth College.
Sign affixed to a starting signal on single line ('absolute' signal). It specifies how the signal may be passed at "stop", if required due to signal failure etc.
