effyoo Posted December 21, 2003 Share Posted December 21, 2003 when I was in LA, I was staying on Venice beach and checked the walls every morning after i got my orange juice. There was 2 or 3 new pieces every day. One morning I come out and it looked like someone smashed one of the walls with a sledge hammer or something. there was a crater 6 inches deep that was blasted away and you could see all the layers of paint that had been placed there over the years. It made me wonder just how everything had changed to create a layer of paint at least 6 inches deep. thats alot of fucking paint. and alot of pieces that people put heart into.

Wish I had a picture of that. Hey, glad you guys like my site. (and sorry ARCEL if it didn't work for you-- there are still some bugs in the Flash, we're working on it) I would like to keep going with this, expand it to other walls, go back further into history, even take it to other cities besides SF. But it's gotta start with someone who has the flix and knows the spots. If any of you have photos you'd like to contribute, send me an email. Want to start a local chapter? GRAFARC/LA? If you've got the flix, I will take care of the technical stuff and get you on our site. Peace, The Graffiti Archaeologist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some sites will do that automatically, it's called a "trackback". --grafarc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suburbian bum Posted December 21, 2003 Share Posted December 21, 2003 That site is awsome. Nice job. What you should do is get a couple of dedicated spots and try to devise some kind of permanent ground marker where to stand so you get the same pic every day. Thanks a lot for making that.

Brandon Posted December 22, 2003 Share Posted December 22, 2003 the only thing I'm wondering about is why every spot you find has less and less graff on it by the time your at the most current level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grafarc Posted December 22, 2003 Share Posted December 22, 2003 Originally posted by Brandon the only thing I'm wondering about is why every spot you find has less and less graff on it by the time your at the most current level. that has to do with the sad state of things in San Francisco these days, as much as anything. the city has cracked down on graff in a big, ugly way. for most of last year, they came in with paint rollers on what looked like a weekly basis. it wasn't always that way. maybe someday they'll get tired of covering art with gray paint, and we'll look back at 2003 as we now look at the dark ages. if and when that happens, i hope to be there with my camera. -grafarc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
