api to graffiti data

rememberlenny — Thu, 09 Oct 2014 22:01:00 +0000

I made an effective low fidelity API to the graffiti data. You can now query with a location and get back results in chunks of 25. You can page through the results via the page attribute. I’m conscious that there is currently no key/secret pass system. I have what I need for the application feed, […]

Deciding where to focus attention

rememberlenny — Wed, 08 Oct 2014 21:25:38 +0000

I set up http://www.graffpass.com/find today. Its a way for people to find the graffiti that is closest to them, based on a pool of instagram photos I scraped over two weeks. This is an concept experiment for a iPhone app I want to finish next week. The application currently has a feature for users to […]

Thinking about the future, I have created the potential for having ads. I took ads off another website and plopped them on. I think they look […]

Next phase of Public Artfound is in action.

Up until now, I struggled with the “empty party” syndrome. I was building a community for content sharing and storing, but didn’t have any content. As a result, I was trying to attract an audience without any reason for them to take Public Artfound. The value created from the twitter bot I created made me […]

Talk from Orbital’s Lesson’s Learned

rememberlenny — Wed, 10 Sep 2014 12:50:00 +0000

My name is Lenny Bogdonoff and I’ve been working on a platform for graffiti and street artists to showcase their work online. Think Wikipedia for graffiti artists. During the day, I am a software engineer for the New Yorker magazine. I joined Orbital after I read Gary’s blog posts titled “On Self-Sufficiency.” The post discusses […]
