Thank you Grayscale Gallery for your INSANELY-SUPER-SICK-URBAN-ART-FESTIVAL

Dear Grayscale Gallery

This is such INSANELY AWESOME FESTIVAL that, firstly, I have to write in caps and secondly, it's left me speechless and so I'm going to copy and paste your email (because, apparently, being speechless means you can't type either):

So finally its here, Grayscale brings you the CITY OF GOLD Urban Art Festival. Seven days dedicated to celebrating graffiti and the role it plays in Johannesburg through a series of events including film screenings, exhibitions, street murals and the Just Writing My Name graffiti jam.

Johannesburg is becoming one of the fastest growing cities in terms of graffiti and its time to put it on the world map as a graffiti destination. Through the festival Grayscale aims to hi-light and spread the positive aspects of the graffiti culture to the general South African as well as expose the local scene to a worldwide audience of graffiti writers. The first of its kind in S.A, City Of Gold also provides the opportunity to young aspiring writers to experience and learn from some of the best local and international graffiti artists right in front of their eyes.
Featuring:

Terrible T-Kid ? TNB ? New York
Ske ? TNB,FX ? New York

Thank you Broken Fingaz for your lazer-shooting vaginas

Dear Broken Fingaz

I like your picture with lazers coming out of vaginas. Although anatomically incorrect, it's still awesome – I would very much like lazers coming out of my vagina. I would roam the streets and, with a swift lift of a leg, take down the bad guys. Superman has his hand in the air as he flies, Cyclops has that weird I'm-holding-the-side-of-my-head-as-I-shoot-you-with-my-eyes move and I would have the Can Can dance. Bad guys, bring it. Pow pow... pow.

 

Thank you Broken Fingaz. You've made me see the light. You also have a really cool blog that makes me want to visit Israel and be all cool and stuff.
