Post-pandemic, busking rebounds but faces new rules—30% of cities now require permits and noise limits. Digital tipping (Venmo, QR codes) replaces coins, increasing earnings 25%. Social media fame (viral clips) leads to corporate gigs and festival bookings. However, overcrowded tourist zones reduce spontaneity, and AI-generated street art (holograms) disrupts traditional acts. The most successful performers hybridize live and online content, turning streets into global stages.

Faced with increasing restrictions on street art, performers can organize “Guerrilla Art Festivals” using augmented reality (AR). They can tag virtual performance spots around cities, allowing audiences to view AR shows via mobile apps. This approach bypasses physical location restrictions while maintaining public engagement. Performers can also coordinate with local businesses to create pop-up performance spaces, blending digital and live experiences. By leveraging AR, street artists preserve their creative freedom, reaching wider audiences without being confined by physical regulations, while also promoting the city’s cultural vibrancy.
