"because we don't give a fuck about all those bullshit commercials" txuma
123 graffiti clan. French and hiphopera. Friends of exterior wall decorators in Brazil, The Bronx and Tokyo. A web page full of Hip Hop music and proclamations to the four winds. Scien, Klor, Skam, Dean, Sper, reso and Meric. Style is the message, seemingly. The Style: the stance to taken when faced with existentialism. A suit made to measure for Life.
I'm not gonna put words to the music on the website. 123 have this to say about themselves:
"123 is basically a graffiti crew. Unity is our strength, style is our weapon. Because we believe in one wide web for all. Because we don't give a fuck about all those bullshit commercials. Because we've taken the power to decide for ourselves. Because we believe in visual propaganda. We have nothing to prove, just something to show".
They've stuck their street graffiti on the web. Some of it undergoes a metamorphosis when it's digitalized. Just open up larva and they'll fly off around the world.
You'll come across their WARpapers and deskFORCE or run smack bang into the speed of Bruce Lee and the violence of Rocky Balbo. The world wide web's "dark site of the force". Vader would really get some kicks outta this one. It's got it's necessary dose of "demode". This lot drink from many a cup.
They've mixed graffiti with graphic design. They've managed to get the balance between radicalism and styling right, sacrilegiously. All the same, It won't be too difficult to make shit of that balance. Enjoy while you can. I'll say goodbye as they would wish:
We're watching you!
Smoke that shit, asshole!

Flash is what this is all about. It gives you the opportunity to see another side of the driver. Pure maths my friends! See how they were supposed to be good for something. Here is the proof at last.

We recently explained how to install the driver needed for the Flash player. Most dumb pc's have it factory installed anyway. This time round we'll show the advantages of using of plugging. As well as the chance of having drawings and logotypes hopping all over your monitor screen, this player will open up a whole new range of possibilities for all you surfers.
Zoom: just click on the right button (normal pieces of junk) or ctrl+click (for those of us with flashy pieces of Mac junk), and a menu will magically appear before your very eyes. Zoom in on the flash film and you'll be able to move around in the maximised version. You'll come across all kinds of stuff you haven’t seen before: video game gateways or back doors; designers and programmers(I hope nobody gets miffed at this)personal trademarks in other words.
