Seal Cutting(篆刻) is a Chinese traditional art. You cut a stone block to make a stamp with, usually, Chinese letters like name, poet, etc.
Blogger Masayuki GT tried to combine this Song Dynasty originated stone art with the latest technology, QR Code, Japanese 2D barcode now widely used with cellphone camera to guide mobile website URL-s.
I am sure that cutting stone consumes much time.
Soak with ink.
Then stamp it.
Of course, it is readable from your cellphone.
You can read whole process of seal cutting with different size of QR Codes on Masayuki GT’s blog. [J]
