 funana says: This is crazy shit! Some german graffiti writers filmed their actions... Take a look, it's damn crazy. Looks like fun - also sounds fun - here's some info on Guano Apes, the band who provide the backing track. Can you provide any further insight funana from the words/comments associated with the article? Thx for interest, Ghiberti. Yes, I can. People find it very funny and think that it's a better hobby than robbing old lady's bags or fight on the streets. Graffiti artits laugh about it and find it very "special". It's a parody of the "Graffiti live action videos" that are very popular and contain "bombing sessions" with backjumps and tagging/throw-upping tours. They look nearly the same like this parody and I had to laugh more than one time, watching this video. I'm a graffiti writer but I stopped "bombing" a long time ago. You get older and wiser I think...  If you are interested in my graffiti artwork, here you can find a slide show with some examples (only a small part of my work): http://funana.slide.com/p/0/Konsum?view=True Great stuff; re: your slide show 1. Is it collaborative 2. Is it still there 3. Different styles seem to be evident - what sort of time period does the slide show represent? Thank you! It is collaborative, as far as you mean that I go out with other writers to paint a wall together. The styles themselves are my own. It's always a great happening and feeling to write together with others. To me graffiti is a great philosophy and way of life and I like the way you have to work - with your whole body. It's very different to sketching, drawing or painting a canvas, because the moves come out of your body, not just out of your hand or shoulder. It's a little bit like dancing. The moves of my pieces show a lot of my natural body moves. The slideshow contains pictures of the last two or three years, only the last one (the top to bottom train) is very oldschool. I al... Ah, forot your second answer: No, most of them have been went over or have been buffed. Graffiti is very ephemeral, but I have them all saved in my brain It's very different to sketching, drawing or painting a canvas, because the moves come out of your body,Any particular music aid the process? No, not necessarily. But of cause the moves are very inspirated by hiphop and soulful music. Thanks, f |
