Here are some great movie files from the Graffiti Analysis Project, which
"makes visible the unseen movements of graffiti writers in the creation of a tag". Also includes stills, individual galleries for the featured artists, and an overall explanation of the project. (Watch the "View Capture Device" short first, to get a handle on how this works.) All the movies were shot in and around NYC and are accompanied by some piece of ambient music that I know I've heard on FMU, in an art movie, or in a Snickers commercial. I will buy a cookie at the Jersey City Au bon Pain for the first person who ID's it for me.
The tune on the main page is "Green Grass of Tunnel" by Mum. It's the second song on "Finally We Are No One" on Fat Cat Records. It's a hell of a great album, by the way.
