I’m going to take a time-out from fashion to introduce a non-profit art group that is changing the way graffiti writers, artists and protesters communicate—and if you’re already familiar, then let’s hope you’ll just stay to enjoy all the pretty lights (and amazing Knife cover).  Graffiti Research Lab runs lab and field experiments and documents them along with DIY instructions which are made available for everyone.  Inventing the LED throwies put GRL on the map.

And remember in life science when the teacher confiscated your laser pointer for highlighting the ill-fitting points of his Dockers?  Well now we are all grown up, technology has increased exponentially, and no one is confiscating our laser pointers!

That’s just scratching the surface of what they’ve been doing over at GRL.  Highly impressive group.  I’m excited to see future developments from them as well.

And maybe this post will even inspire some of you to make throwies and bombard your families’ homes with them for the holiday season.
