Okay the 23rd Street Platform Artist is out of control:

I saw this first, really nice comment and such.

Then I saw this, funny, disturbing, great...

ANd then WOW, this just is getting better and better
Although it attracted its share of critics...

And then I saw this lovely aperitif of a paste up.

I mean, jeez louise... You big, smart show off! These are great. Once I got on the train, I got to thinking of how subversion these days so often means a direct person-to-person transmission via mass media. Maybe that isn't clear... It's as if the main way to rebel is to use ads and public spaces to leave a mark that you were actually there, as opposed to just obeying the ads, consuming, and then going the hell home.
