Video of the Day: Light Graff at MoMA

As if the Graffiti Research Lab hadn't blurred the line between establishment art, graffiti culture, and technology enough, they recently bombed the Museum of Modern Art. During a cocktail reception at the museum, GRL used its laser-guided, software enabled, light spray paint system to project virtually-dripping messages on an interior wall of the museum. They ranged from the tags of well known New York graffiti stars to messages directed at the wine-sipping attendees ("F*** You Snobs.") We doubt that Councilman Peter Vallone was in attendance.

    This was at the opening of the Design & the Elastic Mind opening. It was super fun, especially watching the artists, staff, and other attendees writing on the walls.

    why is graffiti most often visually unpleasing, even when its lasers.
