Casey Neisat, the guy who made the infamous “running into shit in the bike lane” video, just put up a new feature where he learns how to make a prison tattoo gun from Scott Campbell — the guy who burned his dollar bill art exhibit in Mexico. Read more »
The corner of Attorney and Delancey is where the pink wall with the increasingly bombed out Z100 logo has defiantly remained for years. But under that eye-catching ad is a recently uncovered advertisement for LoHo realty that was done by MERES ONE — an artist who was in charge of 5Pointz (R.I.P. — Soon) for ten years.

The model was arrested, clad only in neon body paint.
