Style War Notes

Graffiti is thought to ruin the "quality of life"
- what then is the definition of quality?
- who's life does it ruin?

Is graffiti art? Or is it just a crime?

Grafitti is is the written work of the "hip-hop" culture. Break dancing is the movement, and rap is the music.

What is the rewason for graffiti?
- the artist want to immortalize himself. This way his name can live forever. It will be seen everywhere, all over the city.

The grafitti "bombing" is a very organized process. Sketches, meetings, and teamwork all play a big part. Graffiti is an idea of style and all the artists are competing for the best style. They want to be the most recognized, the most respected.
