As for my usual routine these days, while I’m still sick a little bit, I went for a walk today.
While I discovered some art randomly last week, this time around I intended to go check out some graffiti art, but as I also tested out the video function of my iPhone 4 you can see what I discovered in the following video or VLOG or whatever…
And as I said, more stuff: comin’ soon…!!!

Today, I was going for a walk to help me get over my cold and I went all the way at the riverside of the Main in Höchst (like I alreadyyy did here) just to discover these great pieces of art. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find any tag or something, but still R.E.S.P.E.C.T. to the artist.
[UPDATE 19/10/2010: Thanks to StadtkindFFM, who posted a comment under this post after he got a comment posted on his flickr pic, we now know, who the artists are: It's Herakut (formed by Hera & Akut out of Frankfurt), who did this and lots of other cool paintings, always with their unique style. Thx, Stadtkind...!]
By the way, by staying home I get to do some important stuff, but I really miss ballin’ with my new teammates. Can’t have everything, I know.

We went out for a RUNFFM meeting and to get some Burgers today since yesterday was the so called “Hamburger Day”, not so sure about how that came to be, but I am always good for a Burger.
The place where we got the Hamburgers is called “Die Kuh die lacht” (http://www.diekuhdielacht.com) and I can recommend the place for “Der Chef” Burger, it’s tasty! Located at Schillerstraße 28 in Frankfurt am Main close to the station exit “Hauptwache-Passage”.
Afterwards only a few meters from the Burger place we checked out a shop called “Julies Barbershop” (http://www.juliesbarbershop.com/), it is a mix of a Barbershop and a Fashion Boutique.
Big thanks to Julie for letting us promote our stickers at your shop and for the nice talk too!.
You can find it at Schillerpassage, Rahmhofstr. 2 60313 Frankfurt am Main.
Also make sure to check out their artwork, this one right here is done by Il-Jin aka. AtemMeta check out his website http://atemmeta.de/.
Oh and heres a little bonus feature for today!
Stay tuned we got some really cool things in the making for this summer!

When I was in the Philippines for about a year I didnt really notice that there was any local hip hop scene at all but there is one.
Check out this little documentary about the local street artists, unfortunately without subtitles so in order to understand something you have to speak tagalog but still quite watchable.

While shooting some footage around the Tokyo streets last August I kept recognizing these “sumo face” decals almost everywhere around Tokyo, alot of them in Harajuku and Asakusa somehow, streetart still seems to be big in Tokyo. I even saw a little documentary about these “sumo faces” if I can find it again I will post the youtube link below aswell.
I hope you enjoy this video its just a little compilation of streetart in Tokyo.

Here is a video of some of KAWS early works around New York City and Tokyo, saw this a few month ago for the first time somewhere and just came across it today again. Some amazing footage :)

Today we have this Random Shot also taken in Tokyo at the design festa building, which is a building that itself looks totally crazy.
Check out the Random Shot section for more.

KAWS has been interviewed for CBS. Its more of a small biography pic, it gives you a little glimpse of his early works as a street artist to his new artshows, album covers to vinyl toys. It also tells you why he is called KAWS if you ever wondered…
