Go Find It

I know I have already spoken about street art in London, but I like it so much that I couldn’t resist the temptation to tell you about Space Invaders after I saw one pinned on the Go Find It map! I really like the little pixelated Space Invaders: it reminds me of the first video games I played during my childhood. Even now I find them more entertaining than most of the sophisticated 3D games of today. Maybe that’s because I’m nostalgic, what do you think?

The other thing I like about Space Invaders is that they are hidden everywhere: in cities such as London and Paris or even Rennes (next time I go to Brittany, remind me to take some pictures).

Also, there is nothing I like more than to randomly look up and come across one of these colorful aliens. Although sometimes, even if it is obvious, I’m so preoccupied with my own thoughts that I don’t even notice what’s around me. My best example of this is the giant black and yellow Space Invader not far from Liverpool Street tube station. I discovered it last year when I did a street art tour of Shoreditch, as Melina already advised: you should do it too. I can’t believe I walked alongside this brilliant piece of street art everyday for three months on my way to work without noticing it! How about you, have you seen it yet?
