Knautia has a Web blog called Bristol streetart in which she presents fantastic pictures of graffiti in Bristol, England. Recently on her flickr photo stream she featured photos of the transformation of a specific wall over time. Wow.







Fantastic.

Jason Polan is attempting to draw every person in New York. :)

Manbabies: A somewhat disturbing (in a good way) site where the fathers' heads are photoshopped over their kids' faces and vice versa.

178 ways of improving your internet writing by the very thorough Bob Younce. It is a good list, but I violate a lot of these rules. In particular:

Swear off using the word “great.” (woops)
Do the same with: nice, beautiful, wonderful, just, really, quite & that.

(I’m starting to feel really insecure. But this list is really quite wonderful. I think that the advice will just really make my writing more beautiful. And nice. ;))

Bob, I will try harder. I promise.

The aesthetics of failure is a flickr group that describes itself in the following way: "Brakdoewn, slippgae, entrpy, accidetn, gl!tczhes, failures in sound, image, concept, utopian and dystopian experiments" I love the chaos of it. (image by designwallah)

A fantastic blog entry by Los Angelista about what lies behind walls and the things we don't see. (I almost wrote, "wonderful blog entry..." So see, I learned something from that list.)

Graffiti Archaeology: Graffiti Archaeology is a project devoted to the study of graffiti-covered walls as they change over time. The core of the project is a timelapse collage, made of photos of graffiti taken at the same location by many different photographers over a span of several years. The photos were taken in San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles and other cities, over a timespan from the late 1990's to the present."

Piece of me piece of you. Fantastic zombie/puppet movie. :) I don't say *that* every day.

That's all for this week. Have a fantastic weekend.
