Yeah, a graffiti picture book. The name escapes me as it's back home, but it's a pictoral history of New York graffiti, very coffee table. The missus always likes to get me something street art related as I used to study the subculture at uni, plus I'm also Fab 5 Freddy.

I did a graphics degree in Hull but was quite taken by the project walls and community playcourts dotted around so I studied it for my dissertation, history, culture, aesthetics, etc. Used to zoom around some of the less than exclusive areas of Hull on my Diamond Back with my at the time quite expensive Pentax taking snaps double quick. Wild Style in the VCR, the OST in the tray, good times.
As for favourite artists there's none in particular, just a general appreciation. Did enjoy the Robbo vs Banksy Graffiti Wars doc a while back.

I don't suppose you still have all of those flicks? Is like to see them. I've painted Hull a few times as my sis was at uni there.
Is your knowledge of street art mainly NY based? Or people like Obey, shep fairey, Roa etc?
I bought a new Martha cooper book the other day on stickers for £4.50. Decent enough.
