The core of the project is a <i>timelapse collage</i>, made of photos of graffiti taken at the same location by many different photographers over a span of several years. The photos were taken in San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles and other cities, over a timespan from the late 1990's to the present."<br /><br />Piece of me piece of you. <a href="http://www.threeleggedlegs.com/repertoire/zune/">Fantastic zombie/puppet movie</a>. :) I don't say *that* every day.<br /><br />That's all for this week.
