This Friday, We Are Linky It

Art on the street:

Little People (via GrizzlyDog):

Via the knifeman, an incredible animated wall - I watched this with my mouth hanging open:

MUTO a wall-painted animation by BLU from blu on Vimeo.

Also:
A life in polaroids, with sad ending. (via xenogram)

And file under 'useful', the psychologist who turned ordinary folks into aggressive prison guards in the deeply unsettling Stanford Prison Experiment tells you how to resist all kinds of influence.

Isn't it?

From the blogs, mostly. Making Light, Warren Ellis, Journalista etc. bring forth much cool stuff.

I love the little people! Also, mural animation blew my mind like whoa.

umm - I'm not sure how much of that mural is 'real'. some definitely, but the animation to me is way too perfect to trust entirely. of course this may be because work has been done to assemble the footage into a coherrent piece. I'm just not sure that they haven't helped themselves digitally with the art as well...
Still very, very cool. I've long had a dream that I lived in and owned a LARGE warehouse apartment (a hangup I think from Dirk Pitt novel days I think) and have always dreamed it covered in evolving street art. The vid has given my dream a new dimension of street art to explore...

I've seen half of the wall animation before (from where it crawls inside through the tunnel). So it's been put together from pieces over a long time to make the whole.

Doesn't make it any less spectacular.
