It’s a shortish link-o-rama this week, but with some really good stories and great walls…

• ICHABOD is one of America’s great freight train writers. He also has Asperger’s Syndrome. This article by Caleb Neelon gives rare insight into the mind of a great graffiti writer and an artist with Asperger’s. It is a must read.
• OX has a new book out with photos of his many ad takeovers.
• Conor Harrington just painted a new piece in East London.
• A1one’s mixture of Persian calligraphy and graffiti is really beautiful.
• Sometimes the world just needs more color.
• AEC of Interesni Kazki recently painted this stunning piece in Croatia. Great site-specific optical illusion.
• If you liked Fra.Biancoshock’s film The Cleaner that I posted earlier this week, you may also enjoy this video.

No point in me trying to write much about this film from Fra.Biancoshock and Milkshake Studio. Just watch.

We had it right when we were younger: bubble wrap releases endorphins. Fra.biancoshock reminds us of how it’s done with this simple little install. I don’t know if it eliminates stress so much as transfers it from the person popping the bubble wrap to the people surrounding them. But hey, it’s free, it’s fun and why restrain yourself from finding joy in the simple things?

Not quite sure what to say about this piece by fra.biancoshock featuring a slightly modified version of Hello Kitty. It’s from fra.biancoshock’s Hell of Kitty series.
