Wii Spray:

Basically it is not about replacing real graffiti as a form of art. WiiSpray is rather to be seen as an interface to give graffiti a new virtual level outside of the real existing world.

Upon first finding out about a video game that utilizes the interactivity of the Wii video game platform, I acquire another reason why I need to invest in the Wii.  Then I realize that it is still a college project in Germany by Martin Lihs and Frank Matuse.  But with the potential that this holds, it is inevitable for it to be seen at the nearby Game Stop.

Of course the game presents taggin’ in a sterilized form that die hard heads might apply the “toy” label to any kid who would cop it, but seeing the controller should make some graff purists embrace this technology the way many djs have embraced Serato:

Watch the teaser of the final presentation.
