fi5e’s recent project, All City
Council, focuses on the recent anti-sticker graffiti legislation that was
passed here in New York City. Images of the New York City Council members who
supported the legislation are reproduced in ASCII art onto US postal labels.
From a distance the text of the ASCII imagery reads as head shots of the City
Council members but when you look closer you can see that the text is actually
the legal verbiage of the anti-sticker law itself. The faces of tghe council
members are formed from the law which they helped to pass, a law which finds one
guilty based on “identifying information appearing on any sticker or decal.”

Here’s what it says:

“There shall be a rebuttable
presumption that the person whose name, telephone number, or other identifying
information appears on any or decal affixed, attached or placed by whatever
means in violation of subdivision a of this section violated this section by
either (I) affixing, attaching or placing by whatever means such sticker or
decal or (ii) directing, suffering or permitting a servant, agent, employee or
other individual under such persons control to engage in such
activity.”
