“Home.

Home was BAMA, the Sprawl, the Boston-Atlanta Metropolitan Axis.

Program a map to display frequency of data exchange, every thousand megabytes a single pixel on a very large screen. Manhattan and Atlanta burn solid white. Then they start to pulse, the rate of traffic threatening to overload your simulation. Your map is about to go nova. Cool it down. Up your scale. Each pixel a million megabytes. At a hundred million megabytes per second, you begin to make out certain blocks in midtown Manhattan, outlines of hundred-year-old industrial parks ringing the old core of Atlanta...”

The reason these exist is because these buildings are in ruins and in the meantime the local government allowed a bunch of talented graffiti artists to use them as a canvases. It's called the Crono Project (doesn't apply to the two pics of stencils).

There's a lot of cool urban art from other places in the world here: http://t-squat.com/unurthed/
