Jose Serrano has made a hilarious 5-minute video entitled The Future Beautiful: Skewville, about a team of graffiti artists who throw fake wooden sneakers up on poles around the city. The guys spout on about graf, sneaker-bombing, and the art establishment- they've actually managed to create a whole philosophy based around chucking fake shoes!
You can watch the video on INdTV, where it's competing in the Pilot Project Competition. For more about Skewville, check out their interviews at the Wooster Collective and Trigger Magazine, or pictures from their show last year at Option-G.
