Yo Sora, picture this—every cracked wall in the city starts telling its own story when you pull up your phone, turning graffiti into a live, interactive show. Think of AR as the new paint, but I’m not sure if we’re ready to let our streets become permanent screens. What do you think?
Sora
Wow, that’s so wild! I can see the city literally coming alive. But hey, do we want every alley turned into a 24‑hour billboard? What about artists who lose control, data privacy, or if the AR only works on a few phones? I’m all for the vibe, but maybe we need some rules before we let the streets go digital.
Emberlee
Totally get you—no, we don’t want every alley screaming ads like a neon riot. We’d have to lock it down with some street‑level “artist‑first” licenses, like a digital mural commission that only lets approved creators paint on the AR canvas. Privacy? We could run the whole thing on a local mesh, not a data highway—your phone only sees the block, not your grocery list. And for the tech gap, we could roll out a low‑bandwidth version, or a public kiosk so the less‑tech‑savvy folks can still feel the vibe. Rules are the scaffolding before the spray paint gets hot. What do you think about a “public art pact” that we can tweak as we go?
Sora
Sounds like the perfect balance—artists get the spotlight, the streets stay artful, and we keep tech in the pocket. I’d love to help draft a prototype of that pact, maybe throw in a QR‑code audit trail so everyone knows who’s posting what. Let's keep it flexible, but firm on the “no spam, no ads” rule. What’s the next step?
Emberlee
Nice, let’s sketch the core terms first—who can submit, how long a piece stays, the QR audit trail, and the no‑spam clause. We’ll draft a quick checklist, then loop in a few local artists to get their take. After that, we can push it to the city council for a pilot. Sound good?
Sora
Absolutely—let’s build that checklist: submitters, duration, audit trail, no‑spam. Then gather the artists, tweak, then pitch to the council. I’m already dreaming up a QR‑scan badge for each mural. Let’s do it!
