Awesome blink, thanks for posting that.
The interview at stillfree.com is really good too. Though I don't like one line, how he talks about "his generation" bringing graffiti to the people. I dunno how old he is but I think he was probably like 5 or 6 when graffiti really started making a buzz, like in the films Wild Style and Style Wars.
if you think graffiti is cool, pick up those films. Style Wars is a documentary and Wild Style is a fictional film, but which has Rock Steady Crew and Grandmaster Flash in it.

I get that when I'm really stressed, or even just a little tired (and I'm always tired) I also get it in both eyes, both on the lower and upper eyelid; just not as consistantly as he had it in the vid.

Actually, considering that Marc Ecko wants you to think critically about everything, darkfly, if anything, is living up to that. So nyeh.

Did this actually happen or not? That disclaimer just sounds like typical boilerplate, like something they'd have to put up for legal purposes even if it was real. And if it is real, I doubt the gov would advertise that their security was breached so easily by prosecuting him.

In order to do that, one would need to breach the security of an important air force base... and then manage to, unseen, approach and gain access to one of the most important aircraft in america.
I kind of doubt that someone can just hop a couple of fences and then run up to Air Force One. If it was that fucking easy, there would have been a few hundred bombs inside the damn thing by now.
Very beleivable hoax, maybe?

Yeah, all I know is that is you go to the main site it's hosted on, boingboing or something, it lists it as a fake video.
There's been some discussion of this on woostercollective.com, one of the tops sites for street art

Like a lot of other, I find it hard to believe someone can just walk up to airforce one like that. Even if he did, how is he not in jail?
More importantly, how does watching someone "tag" airforce one encourage me to "think critically" and fight against "the man". Maybe I'm not thinking deeply enough about it, but usually when I see lots of graffiti I just think to myself: "What an ass", rather than social revolution.

OK, it was a hoax, but a clever one.

Air Force One Subject of Internet Hoax
By TED BRIDIS
WASHINGTON Apr 21, 2006 (AP)? A startling Internet video that shows someone spraying graffiti on President Bush's jet looked so authentic that the Air Force wasn't immediately certain whether the plane had been targeted.
It was all a hoax. No one actually sprayed the slogan "Still Free" on the cowling of Air Force One.
The pranksters responsible for the grainy, two-minute Web video employed by a New York fashion company revealed Friday how they pulled it off: a rented 747 in California painted to look almost exactly like Air Force One.
"I wanted to do something culturally significant, wanted to create a real pop-culture moment," said Marc Ecko of Marc Ecko Enterprises. "It's this completely irreverent, over-the-top thing that could really never happen: this five-dollar can of paint putting a pimple on this Goliath."
The video shows hooded graffiti artists climbing barbed-wire fences and sneaking past guards with dogs to approach the jumbo jet. They spray-paint a slogan associated with free expression.
After the video began circulating on the Web on Tuesday, the Air Force checked to see whether the plane had been vandalized.
"We're looking at it, too," said Lt. Col. Bruce Alexander, a spokesman for the Air Mobility Command's 89th Airlift Wing, which operates Air Force One. "It looks very real."
Alexander later confirmed that no such spray-painting had occurred.
Ecko acknowledged Friday that his company had rented a 747 cargo jet at San Bernardino's airport and covertly painted one side to look like Air Force One. Employees signed secrecy agreements and worked inside a giant hangar until the night the video was made. Ecko declined to say how much the stunt cost.
"It's not cheap," he said. "You have to be rich."
