Graffiti/Street Art is related closely to photography. Being ephemeral, as you said, graffiti tens to wear down or being erased. You can simply snap a picture to "stop" time, and embed the hash of that picture on the blockchain to prove its existance, and that you owned it. Other than that, and the QR idea, i don't see much of a relation...
Proof of ownership is a cool idea, and takes the QR code one step further, since otherwise – obviously – anyone could go ahead and paint a QR code next to pieces.
Thanks for taking the time to respond.
I am not a big supporter of Graffiti blasted onto public places and let's be honest some people's idea about art is delusional at most.
Some of the guys and gals are VERY talented and they have a message that needs to be expressed... I would rather have them do that in the context of a gallery or posting it online.
Bitcoin could help to fund these ideas and creativity through QR codes being posted with these creations... The author/artist of these creations could still stay anonymous, but still get financial support from his/her admirers. The blockchain could serve as a ledger for one persons work... shortened Url's could be imbedded into the blockchain to link to that persons creation. They could also link this to other people's transaction history. {Eg... A little message on the transaction, send to a Whale bitcoin address}
I appreciate the response. Thanks for taking the time to play with some ideas.
My thoughts...
this is not a original idea and it does nothing for the BTC community.
Your idea is dumb... When your parents go to sleep tonight please wright "MY SON IS GAY" on your parents faces.
THAT WILL SHOW THEM WHO IS BOSS!!!
When did little boys take over are forum?

Uninformed/uninformative response. No idea what you're talking about; there was no "idea", I was asking for discussion.
