rinse

RUBBISH... what up fool?! yo, i am off the net but still peep my email now and then. send me some word, rinse3003@yahoo.com. still writing and started up some music production on the side, dub style. anyways, i lost your e-mail but i stumbled across something you've been looking for. hit me back and we can set up an exchange. looking forward to your message, hollywood. seeya.

so bassicly what i am getting out of this is, your more into the defacement of property qualities of graffiti. the one timer type graff like you mentioned at the opening of your statement really annoys me. its like junk food (no substance) only it doesnt even have the sweet flava' that junk food has. its just no style, no substance waste of space. this stuff doesnt provoke thought, carries no aim or direction, and has no bearing in any way within the terms "petition of media distrust" or "public forum". its even a larger stretch to think that graffiti like that has any effect on advertising bohemiths in any reguard what-so-ever. dont get me wrong i am all about the empowerment of the indiviual but if you dont have anything to bring to the table then why even pull up a chair?! to be honest, the general population is more hurt by graff than it is by product placement and advertising. say mr. average joe just buys a house or starts a business in a seemingly nice area within the city... then writers come down the block and crush everything over and over again... to the average joe graff represents crime and civil unrest, even urban decay. so now the property value could drop over a period of time, people might not want to shop in that area for concern of safety, etc. if an ad campaign rolls down that same block, to the average joe the effects will largely go unnoticed. the only way you are going to save people from the evils of advertisers is to go over the advertisements themselves with your graff. know what i mean? ;)

this article is shitty... poorly put together and bearly skims the surface. but as far as math in graff, most definately (depending on the skill level of the practicioner and the style that is being aplied). writers may not use a formula or equation in numerical form but there are artistic equations that should be kept intact. the more complex your styles become the more mathmatical your sketches seem to appear as well as your finished product. there are some intensely geometric styles floating around out there. some wildstyles are mad geomtric in form. on top of that there is a far less literal analogy between math and graff. there is always a system involved in proper pieces. in the same right there is always a system or "order of operations" in mathmatical formulas. thats why when you see so an ill-ass burner heads are like "someone has got this shit down to a science". its a mataphor that is lost on some kids aparently. science and math share the same pulse and when graff is done properly, its fingers are on that pulse. some of yall are taking this way too literal. i would say that there is a math to some degree or another involed in the construction of a piece as well as style of many letter fonts. anyone who thinks mathmatics cant be found in strange places needs to peep that movie "pi". honestly though, i am tired of all these online graff tutorial web-games. they are tired and boring... if you want to play with graff... go outside and do something real.

the return address?! really?! yup... a thankyou card would be the good & christian thing to do. why not? W.W.J.D.

...nothing to be gained here...

omen... whatever happened with those mops you were talking about awhile back. the ones that you made out of old-school glass deoderant containers?

i believe you missed the point. chumba said, "if you need to squeeze your mop you arent doing it right." meaning if your mop's ink flow is bad enough that you gotta be squeezing that shit out everytime you use it, then you didnt construct the nib right. i like sqeezie mops just as much as the next guy, trust me, but a really good mop is one that wants to drip on its own. for me, squeezing a mop is for dramatic effect in certain areas of a tag, its not something i want to do all the way through with every tag i cop. i do agree with you too though, all my most used mops are squeezable.

merik for nine merik has the nine all locked up.

river vote this.

state your name voter ballot zealot... no question.

this thread could use some cpr. that koot-oner hand is looking hot though, not_like_you, you should post up some more work... bring this thing back to life.

ahhh... guess your right though, it reads qwenta5 instead of qwental5. even still i am diggin' the letter style.

another vote for yuck. it looks like mr. yuck is pimpin' some oldschool shit where you sub a character for a letter. that muffin looks like a capital Q to me. werd... here is another vote for mr. yuck.

visual aid, did you pull your piece out? i thought all three were sumbited. EDIT... vote was removed until all pieces are in.

so ah, destroya... your word carries heavy currency with me, you may be talking me out of getting some nero. what mix ratio did you use with that batch? do you suppose garvey and marsh might be less transparent?
