I sortof disagree with heliologue. By posting that sign, the person is not yet communicating because it takes two to tango. As soon as someone noticed it – not just saw it, but really reached out their thoughts to contemplate it – then it became a communication because there was an exchange. Art is interactive. What would be REALLY cool is if the resulting discussion, like this one, was written on paper and stick on that board inviting more people or the original poster to continue responding.

Right! Both before and after the pithy poster was plastered on. But, oddly, I think I like this picture (and the poster) because it puts on airs akin to those of talking about “high art.”

Belief in high art is very un-me, yet I love the cockiness displayed here. And then, on top of that, the picture of the poster was put on Flickr. Then on this blog.

It’s deep, dude!

The picture is a lie. We *are* communicating via that picture already.

Think about it.

I’m not a lawyer—but I wish I were one!

For a while I had a tag on this blog that said just that. Maybe I’ll revive it.

I’m a lawyer. I’d damn well better follow the guidelines.
