They are also looking for partners in crime at Sundance so be sure to check out their site: graffitiresearchlab.com

Check out the kick-ass video below of a game of laser writing they did in Barcelona where the cops don’t mind you having fun until you target Starbucks!

You’ll also wanna check out the video of GRL in Hong Kong where they made it into the Guinness Book of World Records for the world’s farthest tag- 1200 meters from The Star Ferry Pier on Hong Kong Island to the the Hong Kong Cultural Museum in Kowloon.

And here’s a pic they took in Hong Kong I couldn’t resist posting…

Parole from Brussels

When we were filming in Paris, we were fortunate to meet up with two artists who came all the way from Belgium to hang out with us. Infinity and Parole painted a van for us at a traveling circus. What a cool location!

Take a look at some of Parole‘s work, who’s skilled in all types of style:

Parole from Brussels also has incredible hand style. Some of it is so fresh it looks like Arabic calligraphy.

If you want to read more about Parole you can read this interview in English or French, or visit his web page: fotolog.com/vaobruxelles

Be sure to check out his “Knight Light” painting video:
