That Danish THEK fella has a new DVD out. Other writers featured on it include Sabe, Soten and Splash 117. The video takes you on the journey from Copenhagen to Italy, via Switzerland.
If you like it buy it! But you can download your trial run here on GraffTorrents .
Also up there to download BOMB IT including the extras. Here’s the blurb…

BOMB IT is the explosive new documentary from award-winning director Jon Reiss investigating the most subversive and controversial art form currently shaping international youth culture: graffiti.
Through interviews and guerilla footage of graffiti writers in action on 5 continents, BOMB IT tells the story of graffiti from its origins in prehistoric cave paintings thru its notorious explosion in New York City during the 70’s and 80’s, then follows the flames as they paint the globe. Featuring old school legends and current favorites such as Taki 183, Cornbread, Stay High 149, T-Kid, Cope 2, Zephyr, Revs, Os Gemeos, KET, Chino, Shepard Fairey, Revok, and Mear One. This cutting edge documentary tracks down today’s most innovative and pervasive street artists as they battle for control over the urban visual landscape. You’ll never look at public space the same way again.
BOMB IT has shot in Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Tijuana, London, Paris, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Hamburg, Berlin, Cape Town, São Paulo, and Tokyo.
…although they did use the tried and tested “writing’s on the wall” again. Here’s another article about KONK in the paper.
I saw a KING KONK piece down off Thomas St there the other week (in that disused yard behind the Digital Hub). Presumably a play on words rather than a statement on his position in the hierarchy, as it were. Anyway, best of luck to the lad in his next court appearance.
