Firetagging

While still wet, the graffiti paint's lit, adding "burned accents" to the tag.

I understand some people are tagging with lighter fluid, with less permanent results, making graffiti more of a performance.

Don't try this at home, or at my home.

Banksy's New, Biggest Work Yet --

commenting on CCTV, right under not just their noses, but their cameras:

"Then, during darkness and hidden behind a sheet of polythene, he painted this comment on 'Big Brother' society.

"The work, above a Post Office yard in Newman Street near Oxford Circus, shows a small boy, watched by a security guard, painting the words: 'One nation under CCTV.'"
