Check out this though: http://www.blondchili.com/movies/overpas.html Similar to graffiti research lab, but with quotes more pertinent to Cincinnati...pre-internet viral campaigns and blogs too, so no wide spread international media hype.

It is great to see people express themselves, but because everything has become so accessible and the lo-grade style of pop art has become so popular(hence the "pop" in pop art), many are not truly expressing their emotions, but are making pop art statements. These are statements that provoke superficial thought, but don't move people to change. It is kinda the banal that has come with design and graphic arts. It looks so pretty or cool, but that's about it. Ruairi, I see your point and the “Free Berd” does have more meaning to me now.

I recommend looking through the whole portfolio of GRLs work and it will become very quickly clear just how inventive they are with their technology. I take on board what your saying about the 'free berd' tag however theres a bit of a story behind http://wbztv.com/topstories/local_story_031135507.html I think it explains their choice of seemingly obscure text to promote the project. Heres some more info from GRLs perspective http://graffitiresearchlab.com/?p=67 Also, I spoke to one of the GRL guys about how it was going and they told me they had seen people get really creative with the opportunity to tag an entire building. One person tagged "Te Huur" which means "to let" in Dutch for example. I'd look at the work as more of a framework for self expression and not worry too much about individual images of the piece in action. Hey Glenn, I think your being a litte unfair here.

However it lacks the staying power and the magnitude they are going for because it was not done with a fire extinguisher. People need to become a little more humble and a lot more creative. There is footage of a tiger running on the walls of buildings in some city. That is much more creative...you'll know it if you've seen it.
