Stephen Powers' Love Letter Project

Espo (aka Stephen Powers) is one of my favorite artists, and this project is absolutely beautiful. From the website: "Love Letter is a project by Stephen Powers with the City of Philadelphia Mural Arts Program and is sponsored by the Pew Center for Arts & Heritage through the Philadelphia Exhibitions Initiative. Generous support provided by the Brownsetin Group and Septa."

Colossus of Roads

Here's a great little documentary on the legendary Colossus of Roads. We dare you to find a train that he hasn't had his hands on.

Royal Gorge Train Bombed

Found this on the interweb the other day. Looks like one of the parked Royal Gorge passenger cars got taken over - not sure what year this is. This is the very train that lives a few feet from our beloved Black Bridge. Full photo here.

EyeWriter

Check out this amazing new gadget, the EyeWriter, and watch graffiti artist Tempt One rock his styles on a huge scale from his hospital bed.

In their words: "Behold the latest ocular assault weapon from the Graffiti Research Lab, openFrameworks, The Fat Lab and The Ebeling Group: The EyeWriter. It is a low-cost eye-tracking apparatus + custom software that allows graffiti writers and artists with paralysis resulting from Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis to draw using only their eyes."

We learned of this through the MeanRed Productions newsletter.
