It's a cover of a The Knife song. It was recently used in a Sony Bravia advertisment featuring thousands of brightly colored balls. Hence it's use in this movie.
We made those things at mindfest today. I have a red one and i stick it to my lights in my house. Quite fun to put it on my glasses and wear it like it is in my hair.
The battery is full of heavy metals that leak into the environment long after these things go out. I have yet to find alternatives to this type of power, so despite the quite cool effect of LED throwies ('graffitti or otherwise' I'm not getting into that) these throwies are not yet there...
Wow Optick, such anger! What's the matter boy? Daddy come home drunk and make you swallow his load when you were a little ghetto punk? Then beat you with an ugly stick when you wiped your mouth? Don't hate the world cuz youdon't understand it. Oh, and I'll be expecting you to show your ignorance with silly threats. Go ahead, if it makes you feel all grown up.
I dont see how thats graffiti, but it looks good, and the idea was cool. The resistor one would be good to show off and put in a real public place above a highway or something. And who the fuck said graffiti was 'gang signs', graffiti has been around alot longer than gang signs. Fuckin gangs are for gay cunts and no one in a gang can write.
A dollar a light isn't exactly the cheapest way to do graffiti...I mean you probably get more coverage with a 7 dollar bottle of spraypaint than you would with 7 LED throwies. Still, it's pretty and you wouldn't get arrested since you just pluck 'em off the wall and it doesn't matter anymore.
thats a realy neat idea. I wish the materials would get cheaper, i`d love to see stuff like that more often, looks realy great. It shure isnt the same as spraying but its a great alternative and i gues it`d make a nice difference... it`d definetly make you stand out (as a gang)
That's wonderful! A great way to do something without truely "defacing" or "destroying" another piece of property. What a broom doesn't easily clean up a gust of wind will.
Maybe, but only if you could hit each and every one of the cameras at exactly the same time. Lots of banks have over a dozen of the things, and you can't be sure that you've hit enough of them.
It's not that you couldn't do it, but considering how long it would take to learn how to throw 12-plus of the things exactly on target in less than a minute, not to mention the evidence you'd leave with them... you'd be better off figuring out something else.
Technically, Optick is not illiterate, as s/he can read. However, if we move past the "illiterate yes/no" stage, it is also clear that s/he cannot read... or write, or spell... very well, demonstrating a distinct distaste for anything outside of the parochial 'ghetto' behaviors mistaken for "keepin' it real".
Do you like what you like because you like it?
Or do you like it because your friends tell you to like it?
Man, Fuck yall corn ball so-called open minded fux!!
I'll take my ghetto mentality, and cut your fuckin faces up and stick LEDs in it. And personally, what I stated was my own opinion, not because I am being influenced by others, unlike your selves. You devil white supremist euro shitfaces!!
Go stick them LEDs up your asses along with your glow sticks and neon bands. While yall are at that, Go OD on some synthetic drugs too, and swallow some pills. Yall fuckin EMO so-called graffiti movement bitches.
Well, consider: the throwies are supposed to be placed where they are difficult to get to, and they have a finite battery life. So, when they die, they need to be removed... to make room for fresh ones...
hey u need to make them blink and call them firefli throwies<LO then u can even make em RC,that would be kool! im into Light also after all i am a Light energy bein<LO,wait til u see my home<LO,another idea for u is to see how they effect crystal bottles and or using CDZ,hell i can teach u lazers to<LO i can teach u powerful toys from toys ur us<LO,hey lets build transport pods?<LO
I don't know weather to be appalled at people defacing public property. Or to be really impressed at their ingenuity. With a magnetic canvas this type of thing could be turned into works of art not just urban graffiti.
