Kinect Graffiti

I love the hacks that have become with the Xbox Kinect. The stills look a lot like light painting/graffiti trend that's picked up with the rise of digital photography.

Kinect Graffiti™ is a digital graffiti tool using "Microsoft Kinect" camera. Idea behind this project is to use the kinect to track the motion behind graffiti. Visualizing the body and drawing trough different angles in real-time, understanding surrounding space, pausing the time, etc.

Scratching the Surface

Street artist Alexandre Farto aka Vhils has a unique way of expressing his art. His ability to scratch the surface on walls to expose portraits is genuine. From chisels to a jackhammer to even small explosives. His sculptures leave a lasting impression on exposed brick.

Here's a couple videos of him using different techniques.

Walls are Dancing

Mural painter Matt W. Moore created a series of painting performances on walls in France. Capturing the evolution of each mural, gathering over 700,000 pictures, and edited as a stop-motion animation. This collaboration of 3 artistic disciplines to make walls dance is part of the global initiative: Let's Colour Project.

I love wall murals and graffiti. So much that it makes for the best urban art. Here's a look at both on a "greener" side of graffiti via German artist DTagno.
