Posse Spotting: San Diego Comic-Con
Naturally, I had nothing to do with this sticker appearing next to the handy trolley route map during San Diego’s Comic-Con 2010. My role is merely the observer, and it was nice to observe that despite the clean-up efforts of the SDCC crew, the Posse represented night and day. You can find more of my non-posse-related SDCC photos here.
Posse Spotting: Miami Design District
The posse struck in Miami’s Wynwood area, where thanks to the interest of hip local galleries and walls and walls of outdoor murals sponsored by Deitch Projects (and sidenote: Jeffrey Deitch just named director of MOCA!), street art abounds. Very cool to see the posse stickers hobnobbing with the project’s biggest influencers, Shepard and Andre. Closeups after the jump.
Queens Medical Centre Murals
If you have to be admitted to the Nottingham Queens Medical Centre, Children’s Wing, at least the decor is cheerful. Jon did these two adhesive wall murals with printing and installation by Ian Robinson. The sheets of coloring book paper are a nice touch. Are those POSCAS?
Just Married
That’s right, posse: Secret Agent Doodle is no longer single. (I guess that makes me a double agent? Cool…) If you’re seeing this post, it means that 1) Greta and I got married, and 2) Wordpress’ scheduling robots published this. This most excellent doodle is by Mr. Jon Burgerman. I’ve done a little PhotoShop handiwork to incorporate it into signage for the wedding. These tags (below) will hang onto 6 DIY 8-inch Qees, which our guests will undoubtedly turn into “masterpieces.”
Not sure where I’d be without this incredible red-haired girl, but I can tell you where we’re going: to Japan! Doodlesplatter will be on hiatus for the next two weeks. I promise to bring you back tales from Tokyo and resume dishing out the doodles upon our return. Thanks to everyone who helped us with little things here and there these past couple months. You know who you are. Cheers!
Exclusive Japanese Stickers
I’m very happy to post this one because I’ll be visiting Japan for the first time at the end of this month. These new stickers are Japanese exclusives, sold in and around Tokyo. My girlfriend passed on an interesting article from the NY Times about killing time and beating jetlag in Tokyu Hands. Count me in. Here are some of the sticker-selling locations.

Infectious Adhesive Art
Infectious is a San Francisco-based company that makes adhesive art for your car, and more recently, your laptop and other small gadgets. Jon has a selection of blue, grey and black stickers called Lunar Park. My girlfriend gave me a big sheet of these that I will put on our car when the weather warms up a little.
It’s called Lunar Park. On one hand it’s a simple collection of characters enjoying each others’ company on a sunny day in the park. On the other, there’s a slight suggestion in the drawings that some of the characters have enjoyed themselves a little too much. I like the LP Dark Side of the Moon and the book Lunar Park by Brett Easton Ellis. I can’t say these have completely influenced this work but I think the idea of ‘lunatics in the park’ and the title of the book were in my brain somewhere while creating this.
- Infectious car art is designed for easy installation with just one or two people from a few minutes to a couple hours depending on the package.
- The art is durable enough to withstand extreme weather conditions (and car washes) for up to two years.
