Graffiti Research Labs’ SVG2BVG uses custom computer vision software to detect graffiti tags, sending the ensuing shape to a diy laser cutter and outputting the tag as a stencil in realtime.
“The stencils are conveniently sized for the television screens in the Berlin U-Bahn system - allowing you to go all-city and create cheap, non-permanent, light-based graffiti in the comfort of your own transit system.”

The Tagtool is an open source performative visual instrument used on stage and on the street. It serves as a VJ tool, a creative video game, or an intuitive way of creating animation. The system is operated collaboratively by an artist drawing the pictures and an animator adding movement to the artwork with a gamepad. The design achieves virtually unlimited artistic complexity with a simple set of controls, which can be mastered even by children. The project website, www.tagtool.org, is the place to find out what people do with their Tagtools, and how to build your own.
