Seeing as how this week's YouthCast is about graffiti...


From "Light Criticism"--a project of The Anti-Advertising Agency. Kind of beautiful, no? A classmate of mine showed this video as part of a presentation on The Graffiti Research Lab. They're a group that wants to spread "graffiti technologies" like Throwies--an adhesive light that's thrown onto buildings or objects. "Impress your friends and city officials": watch the video and learn how to make Throwies.

5 down, 634 years to go






Generally I'm not a big fan of organ music, but "As Slow As Possible" by John Cage is my new favorite song. It takes 639 years to play. This is what it currently sounds like (feel free to listen at your convenience--the next note won't be added to the song until July 5, 2008). "As Slow As Possible" is scheduled to conclude September 5, 2640.

Here's the score for the first few years. It really started off with a bang.

September 5, 2001-February 5, 2003: rest.


But this is what I really want to know: if I invited you to a party and put "As Slow as Possible" on the stereo, would you dance?
