GRL- Graffiti Research Lab

Revolutionary. As our surroundings change so does the youth in our nation, they grow and adapt, the world is becoming a fast paced technology-dependent and tech-savvy population. In return a new source of urban-communication has developed in response to the growth of our Cyber-age. In this site a group of outspoken individuals, Evan Roth, James Powderly and the agents of the G.R.L, have come together using their knowledge and skills to create a new modernized outbreak of "everyday" graffiti. Laser point graffiti has truly caught my eye and apparently everyone else in Europe has been aware of this kind of technology for years now, one person even stated that GRL is like "Hasselhof big", at first their fan base stretched out to most of the eastern side of the world; Spain, Italy, Austria, London, Hong Kong, Tokyo, etc. and recently their followers and practice has spread to the states and most western hemisphere! They have even be asked to produce their work on media films like on rapper videos and radical art galleries.http://www.graffitiresearchlab.com/blog/
