The above movie was constructed using Flash, piecing together a series of still photographs taken with an relatively simple-to-use digital video camera. The sequence of images was composted into a gritty slide show with music added to suggest the imagined mood of youthful adventurers documenting their life with a can of spray paint. In a moment all will disappear, when the next set of painters over-write the canvas. It is a public place, after-all.
