Typology of Pedestrian Walking Symbols

[schnitzer@sueden.social]

@Natasha_Jay Esslingen / Germany has "Äffle und Pferdle" as red/green lights

@Natasha_Jay

What? No Ostmännchen? And none of these?

[luc0x61@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@Natasha_Jay Curious how in Italy we have the most neutral, icon styled walking person. So neutral that I never thought very much about it

[sailboat@mastodon.scot]

@Natasha_Jay today i learned that andorra has at least one traffic light!

[schnitzer@sueden.social]

@Natasha_Jay And in Bayreuth / Germany composer Richard Wagner can be found.

[maumau@chaos.social]

@Natasha_Jay Vienna has had so many different and wonderful traffic light figures since the Eurovision Song Contest… showing just one really isn’t enough.

Morning brain:

My first thought, scrolling through... Aah, someone has made an international field guide to identifying the various species of yeti. Mostly swamp things, based on coloration.

It's only possible to tell by context on a road crossing signal what the Puno one is supposed to be doing .

If I just saw that sign on a door all I'd think is do not go though that door.

[jonricha@hoosier.social]

@Natasha_Jay Puno looks like something from Monty Python’s Ministry of Silly Walks is happening! And Andorra is definitely feeling the groove but I’m not sure if they’re making progress across the street.

[bazzargh@hachyderm.io]

@Natasha_Jay I see other missing ones mentioned, but not Miffy in Utrecht?

[jay23jay@troet.cafe]

@Natasha_Jay don’t forget about those two️

[neverbeaten@mas.to]

@Natasha_Jay
Can't touch Andorra's.

Did they get MC Hammer to model for that?

[sollat@beige.party]

@connynasch @Natasha_Jay
Probably dodging traffic

[cassandra@ottawa.place]

@SimonRoyHughes Does it really? All intersections? I think I can see a silhouette in the light above, which seems confusing.

[tsyum@thepit.social]

@Natasha_Jay amazing. And I have a bunch of questions

[elilla@transmom.love]

@Natasha_Jay boosting this specifically to do Berlin erasure

[hastur@masto.hackers.town]

@Natasha_Jay Istanbul looks like he's going to a disco, Rome is more like "You want some of this!?" and Warsaw is designed by someone who's had too much to drink.

[nichol@mstdn.social]

@th @Natasha_Jay crossing for muscular women with ponytails..

[nine@chitter.xyz]

@Natasha_Jay Kinda diggin' Mexico City and Andorra there.
