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.

Big Trollface in Finnish newspaper

Trollface in the newspaper

It's an article about Internet trolling in Kalena newspaper. Some of the text's translation (more - here):
"Gary started trolling about three years ago.
'I do it mostly for my own pleasure. Maybe it began from getting frustrated from people complaining all the time. I get pleasure when I create disturbance and people get angry.'

Gary spams and trolls. He may appear using his own name or under a nickname.

'I don't bother to spam anywhere else than in Facebook. That too has become tiresome. Nowadays I troll more.'

Have you ever thought how mean it is to disturb other internet users?

'Yes. Every day. I don't mind.'"

Egypt has left the Internet


Since last night, Internet in Egypt has been shut down.
Confirming what a few have reported this evening: in an action unprecedented in Internet history, the Egyptian government appears to have ordered service providers to shut down all international connections to the Internet. Critical European-Asian fiber-optic routes through Egypt appear to be unaffected for now. But every Egyptian provider, every business, bank, Internet cafe, website, school, embassy, and government office that relied on the big four Egyptian ISPs for their Internet connectivity is now cut off from the rest of the world. Link Egypt, Vodafone/Raya, Telecom Egypt, Etisalat Misr, and all their customers and partners are, for the moment, off the air.

Mystery of the sandbar piano solved

Teenager takes responsibility for hauling the grand piano on the Biscayne Bay sandbar:
Nicholas Harrington, 16, told CNN affiliate WPLG that he was behind the mystery, with a little help from his friends.

"I liked the idea of an anonymous piano out there, no explanation to it," he said, adding that he viewed it as art for a portfolio in a future college application.

Harrington shared with the station home video from before the holidays, when he and his father moved the baby grand piano from his grandmother's house to his, on a boat.

Weeks later, after purposely setting the piano on fire at a party, he, his father, and two of his friends decided to place it out on the sandbar, WPLG reported. "It was a solid surface. It wouldn't float away," Harrington told the station.

Not The Onion: A woman named Valerie Joyce Wilson Turks decided it's time to take legal action against P. Diddy, his ex-girlfriend, Kim Porter, and police brutality victim Rodney King, because they "knocked down the WTC and then they all came and knocked my children down".

She also claims Sean "P. Diddy" Combs date-raped her 24 years ago and that he is the father of her child. She is asking for 900 billion dollars in child support and 100 billion for 'loss of income.'

Oh, and also, P. Diddy should return that casino chip "worth over 100 zillions of dollars" he stole from her.

Tips For Drawing Graffiti Sketch to Coloring

The following tips on drawing / writing graffiti from sketch to coloring graffiti on the wall

Graffiti Drawing TipsIn particular the use of the bold style lettering is really distinctive to graffiti art. The images themselves will usually be hard hitting, and be painted in stark colours utilising strong shadows and outlines to add depth and definition. Images usually depict social or political issues close to the artist's heart.

Before you start a piece of graffiti art, you should draw a small scale version of the large piece you want to create first, then when you begin your actual piece, its a simple task of just scaling up your graffiti sketch.

If you need ideas for a graffiti font to use, there are plenty of sites online that have examples for you to copy. For the outlines, use a fine marker pen. In order to produce a 3D effect, shade around the letters you've outlined with a different colour. Then use permanent markers to colour in your letters.

Once you are ready to paint your sketch on to your larger canvas or wall, you need to draw a reference grid over your small drawing. Sketch a full size replica of the grid on to your wall or canvas that you are using for your scaled up graffiti piece. Use either chalk, charcoal or diluted paint to draw the large grid. To make marking the grid out easier, the simplest thing to do is to use a piece of string.

Use chalk or charcoal to transfer your small drawing on to you larger canvas. Use an aerosol can to paint the background in using diluted paint, keep the layer thin and allow it to dry before you start your colouring. When you've finished the outline and the background, it's time to add the colours and detail. Again use aerosols to add the colours. Start with the lightest colours first and the largest sections, and then move on to the detail and the smaller areas last.

When you've coloured your work in, you can add the fine definition with a brush to enhance the fine lines and borders around your figures and letters. You can preserve it for years to come with a thin layer of varnish.
