    It’s not really graffiti unless it’s physically on public property.

    Anything can be called graffiti if it’s out in the open for others to see. Technically it’s supposed to be on a wall, but we don’t need to get all technical about a post on a blog.

    I think that is from a an experimental art group called the Graffiti Research Lab (GRL). They use home grown engineering to make new graffiti technologies that people can rig up at home, and I think the picture is actually from their new experiment that involves lasers, rather than just flashlights. They are pretty cool, I suggest checking them out.

    It is called “Light-Space-Writing”. This technic has been created by Gjon Mili (1904-1984), an Albanian photograph.

    In the 30′s, he worked with professor Edgerton from MIT.

    Pablo Picasso himself tried to do this : http://www.zeblog2latribu.com/index.php?2007/02/20/281-peindre-avec-la -lumiere
