Burn The Rich

Burn the rich, bring out your dead, eat only organic and of course, grain fed.  Love from the Bourgeois Flasher.

Bird Turd

I must admit that actually, it is not getting harder to find decent Graffiti. I thought we were bleaching the streets but it turns out I just forgot how to find it. Here Tis!

Sitting Ducks

We are sitting ducks.

We cast momentary shadows.

We drink beer at the Trivia night.

We make our mark.

We accumulate shit.

.

We make our mark again. And again. And again.

We clear stuff out and leave shit behind.

We chuck so much shit out.

We take the piss.

We catch light that falls on walls.

And we ponder, sitting ducks.

Fear of Metaphor

These twin cities - North Fitzroy and Fitzroy - my home. The inner North, the roof over my head. Melbourne - my empathetic lanes peddling marks and faded history. My medicine. October 2014: Fitzroy, North Fitzroy, North Carlton, Carlton, Parkville and Preston.

The number of blogging apps proliferating is ridiculous. This Blogsy one could be a winner.

I dragged this pic straight from Facebook albums. The image was my birthday wish for Precious Few this year. I took it in a laneway behind Piedemontes. Sorry not sure how to place it properly yet.

Naw and here is an oldie of Nufevah and my Dawg, from my Picasa account, taken near the Fitzroy Pools way back when, one winter morning.

By promising Yahoo that I will burn toast and sleep on the crumbs between flannelette sheets for a month, Flickr granted access my old sets. Fucking RAD. Above, I have dragged a snap from years ago, my favourite wall.

And here, just straight from my gallery, which was uploaded directly from my phone a couple of weeks ago.

And finally a recent self portrait from Instagram.

This Blogsy App has taken access to a new level. Every photo I have ever posted on any forum (not tumblr or twitter tho) is there, ready for me to grab. But it required a hundred passwords and a hundred more authorisations.

A cool thing about this is that you can immediately go to your posts and edit. From inside the App.

The coolest thing about this is that I can indulge instantly in links and comparisons. No more trawling through external drives for that throwie that was on that wall three years ago. I have them all here, to my right. Apologies in advance y'all about to be post bombed for a while. The modern version of sifting through that old photo box. I will try to make it slightly more interesting than that.

Core

So apparently Earth's tectonic plates are moving more quickly than they used to because the earth's core is cooler.

Could that be true for street art? Is it evolving more rapidly because it is cooler?

That would possibly be true if you agreed with the assumption that mainstream popularity equates to cool. I happen to think that the opposite is true.

Probably the saving grace is that alongside the socially popular work continues the stuff they don't like.  So it is that boundaries continue to be pushed.

And it seems this art is moved by the hotness, not the cool.
