During the day there were one or two boutiques and restaurants open, but most of it was boarded up tight. At night, the place came alive and the bars opened wide, spilling whores, misfits, nightcrawlers and drinkers onto the streets. We were taken there again at 2am one morning by some locals and did some sightseeing of a very different kind. </p> <p>Unlike the UK and many other western cities, sex is not used on billboards to manipulate the simple-minded into buying things they don’t need. (Billboards and advertising are actually a rarity, making the buildings fair game for actual artists.) Provided you knew when to visit Augusta, sex was casually flaunted, readily available for anyone who wanted it. Very in your face, but very honest. </p> <p>More photos coming soon.</p>http://vuvuvultures.tumblr.com/post/53027836328http://vuvuvultures.tumblr.com/post/53027836328Sat, 15 Jun 2013 11:18:18 -0400mattblogbrasil<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/9ad552907b59ba6a44d2cb2342d6946a/tumblr_mobzuy4MN81qid0sio1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/0625b64f9273e34fc00cc3c94ec762c9/tumblr_mobzuy4MN81qid0sio2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/20d5378948885835d7e2dd590e77cdfa/tumblr_mobzuy4MN81qid0sio3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/bd050b2045e554540d1c28b70160f4ef/tumblr_mobzuy4MN81qid0sio4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/93ac591c4731d133932303408157a515/tumblr_mobzuy4MN81qid0sio5_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/67d4ea5df6f129b3304c19a4f6ba201b/tumblr_mobzuy4MN81qid0sio6_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><strong>Graffiti of São Paulo, Part 1</strong></p> <p><strong><br/></strong>No one who goes to São Paulo could ignore how extensively and  profoundly the city’s residents use the buildings as their own personal canvas. These are a few pics from some of my favourites that I saw as I was walking around.</p> <p>We managed to see a good portion of the city on foot, though we didn’t actually know much about any of the areas we were in or how much ground we would end up covering until later. But I can’t imagine a better way to see it and get a feel for what São Paulo is all about.</p> <p>We met some amazing people and saw some incredible art. Stick around for more coming soon.</p>http://vuvuvultures.tumblr.com/post/52863574950http://vuvuvultures.tumblr.com/post/52863574950Thu, 13 Jun 2013 08:25:46 -0400mattblogbrasil<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/c921b937c814e10c34257dc242cd31d6/tumblr_mobt4mVQh21qid0sio1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>If you’re gonna drown your sorrows, do it right.</p>http://vuvuvultures.tumblr.com/post/52858947908http://vuvuvultures.tumblr.com/post/52858947908Thu, 13 Jun 2013 06:00:22 -0400mattblogdrinking<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/cde31ff1959e3bf74e5f665df7fecc40/tumblr_moaio0agLS1qid0sio1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Next gig!
