Think about it, you have writers learning the ins and outs of entire transport systems, risking serious injury even death, arrest and criminal records that would limit your opportunities for the rest of your life, for what? To simply paint a picture, does this seem logical to you? If the answer is no then it is most likely that you don’t fathom the idealism behind graffiti.

actually it's kinda a combo. phase2 is credited with creating wildstyle but kase2 redeveloped it. then futura came in, took what kase2 did and threw it out the window...resulting in the development of new school. i also wouldn't say he invented 3d...blade was using it, it looked like shit, but he was using it none the less.

but phase2 does deserve credit, he's the origination of the graffiti we all love to look at!!

how can u say anyone "invented" 3d? 3d is sumthing they learend way back in the renesance - kase2 jus used it effectivly. its the same drill as shadows - if sum1 didnt "invent" it - ppl would use it anyways. Its not inventing as much as using... jus my word on it.

You are both right, but inventing it is the same as using it first. Wrong word, peace out.

damn kid...I must say that I'm surprised that anyone would concider me influential by any means but thanks by the way, hit me up on aim, sr kombyn....I really don't think I deserve the honor but again thanks. I would have to say that the most influential writer for me was seen ua. He just wreked shop....with tags, hollows, throwies, pieces, blockbusters, characters, any element of graff, this cat rocked with no problem. now a days I'm feelin HOW and NOSM. really cutting edge shit. one love.

"GRAFFITI IS AN ART, AND IF ART IS A CRIME, HOW COME PICASSO NEVER DONE TIME"

Cavemen did it, so did Romans and Egyptians. The Incas did
it, so did Greeks and Native Americans. There was graffiti on the
New York subway a year after it was built. There`s graffiti on the
moon. If graffiti is vandalism, and vandalism is graffiti, then man
has left his mark with garbage at the farthest reaches of the
universe. So you with your pathetic desire to be remembered are in
good company. I could spend a ream of paper telling you about the
development of modern graffiti, but we`ve got other ground to cover.
It`s important that you know it, so ask your local expert (or DJ
Deadly Budda in Pittsburg if you don`t have one) and he`ll tell you
his version.
