      txt: "Wooster's How To..,." #12 - Blek Le Rat's How to Survive in the Graffiti World Without Selling Your Soul
      First of all: Before starting a career as a graffiti artist you have to make sure to have another income than your art to live for over a long period of time and maybe even for the rest of your life.... This is the best way to keep your work free from any parasites or bad influences from people who dont care about you as an artist but only about their own benefits of YOUR work. [...] Fifthly: The ligths of the city quickly go out!!! and how to switch them on? It is in the cold of the darkness when you are alone and looking for someone and the way out back to the lights of success that your conscience is being cleaned because free of the blinding pollution of success. Your pain will turn into a new creativity. And you should never forget the old law of nature that after a down always comes an up...

He began his quest on the streets of Paris In 1981 and many artists (most famously by Banksy) have been influenced by his unique style ever since. Street art has evolved and the year is now 2006. Blek and filmmaker King Adz depart on a road trip through France to witness Blek's influence on street art and the modern media. The two men are friends off-screen, and Adz just lets the camera roll... [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B2D1kFS9TY4]

      txt: Is Venice Sinking?
      The net effect was like letting the air out of your tires, or perhaps more aptly, draining your waterbed. It wasn’t until the late 60’s that hydrologists put one and one together, slapped their foreheads, and sounded the alarm. The Italian government acted swiftly and banned groundwater pumping in the area forever. That did the trick and plugged the leak. Not only did the dramatic subsidence stop, but the area actually saw an upward “bounce” of a couple centimeters. Now the level of sinking is back to its normal “background”, non-crisis levels. But the damage has been done. As we’ll discuss in upcoming posts, losing those 10 precious centimeters was a huge strategic blow to Venice’s battle against the sea.

      MoMA Doug Aitken: Sleepwalkers January 16–February 12, 2007 - Evenings, 5:00–10:00 P.M. Free Featuring Tilda Swinton, Donald Sutherland, Chan Marshall (Cat Power), Seu Jorge, and Ryan Donowho txt: MoMA Does a Drive-In - New York magazine
      Aitken first had a vision of "skyscrapers communicating with each other" about their "inner lives" during a visit to midtown four years ago. (He lived in New York in the nineties, but calls L.A. home now.) After he brought Creative Time his initial idea in 2003, he and Peter Eleey returned with maps and binoculars, looking for an austere building façade to project on. As they walked down 54th Street, Aitken noticed a huge construction site. “I said, ‘Look at those white walls—that would be perfect for something,’ ” he recalls. “Peter looked at me like, ‘You idiot—that’s MoMA.
