SFMOMA: Wonderland: A world turned upside down
Via Eric. Comment: "And what if in that picture you were standing with someone or near some one that your partner doesn’t like….and then your partner beats you up for it. That’s the tenderloin. That stuff happens. You cant just take someones picture there and post it up. In the “language of the tenderloin” it means something to stand on golden gate and leavenworth or on turk and polk, those blocks mean certain things, where you can find certain people and where you can buy certain things. You take a picture of someone standing on a certain block, you are saying something about that person."

Late to the party on this, but what a lovely piece of work. A perfect concrete example of the kind of situated, bespoke life-improvement system public-object APIs should almost trivially enable. (Paul did it the hard way.)
