Playing this always mind sharpening game that's called; "the big name game" (what would be the name of my future company(advertising, branding etc.) and came up with 'TAKI 183". TAKI 183 is one of the originators of New York graffiti. He worked as a foot messenger and would write his nickname around the New York streets that he daily frequented en route in the late 1960s and early 1970s. On July 211, 1971, The New York Times ran an article about him on the front page of its inside section, titled "Taki 183" Spawns Pen Pals. TAKI 183's newspaper fame spurred competitive tagging in NYC as his tag was being mimicked by hundreds of youth across the five boroughs. In this he became the inititiator of "tagging". Considering my roots in graffiti I like this story and it underlines my mission of combing art and innovation in the advertising business, what do you think is it contagious?
