A shout-out to NoiseHacker. It looks like the end of days for Baldoyles graffiti "wall of fame", a quiet out of the way spot where young people could practice their art without worrying about the pigs or creating a public eyesore. The development of €120 million worth of new homes on Baldoyle's racecourse will see not only the destruction of the "wall of fame" but also Baldoyles largest green space and most historic location. This will Leave locals with only two large public spaces, a park prone to dreadful flooding and a seafront with a "fantastic" view of three seperate golf-courses. |

Does Dublin City Council remove graffiti?
Yes. DCC will remove graffiti, which is political or racist from public property only.
I feel safer already.

In cities around the world Sony has been putting up graffiti to advertise the PSP. However, people are reacting. The Wooster Collective recently stated: “Maybe it’s just us, but as we start to receive photos from all over the country showing defaced Sony PSP ads, were starting to think that the Sony PSP graffiti campaign may indeed be a watershed moment in the battle between graffiti culture and advertising”. It is reported that Sony is paying the owners of buildings so they can put up graffiti that will attempt to get the kids to buy their products. More info and images below.

The (anti) Sony PSP Graffiti Campaign
"Graffiti and spray paint are very direct and rather radical means of expression. Tech art often has a motivation in activism, so the two go well together." [Jürg Lehni]

Art is dead, but the student is necrophiliac. He peeks at the corpse in cine-clubs and theaters, buys its fish-fingers from the cultural supermarket. Consuming unreservedly, he is in his element: he is the living proof of all the platitudes of American market research: a conspicuous consumer, complete with induced irrational preference for Brand X (Camus, for example), and irrational prejudice against Brand Y (Sartre, perhaps).

depends on what your view of what art is exactly, what it has been, what it might be
being creative is part of what gives the human animal his sense of being
why did he squash red rock and spit it, and put his hands in goo on wall thousands of years ago?
maybe it excited him?
why dance and do unplanned things in heat of an "insurection", excitment amongs other things?
when doing something creative it is exciting- sometimes one cannot help but do it
rts - something artistic, something political, something fun
why are there not hundreds, thousands, millions on streets of ireland?
what would have to be done to make that happen?
remember berlin....
1989 - 150 people bop on streets
1999 - 1,500,000 people bop on streets
can art change the world?
