By now, everyone’s heard of the London street artist called The Decapitator. You haven’t? No sweat. Read this, watch the video, then check out his exciting gore-filled protests against advertising on Flikr and you’ll be transformed into the life of the party. Ok, maybe I’m overselling just a touch.
Anyway, this video shows The Decapitator’s process as he ‘hijacks’ a London newspaper, alters one of the ads, then puts it back out for the public to consume.

Myku thanks for voting in the first round of my male actor tournament! I really appreciate it. The first round is over and there were a couple of surprises. Anyway thank you for voting on the first round. The second round will get harder, I hope you will vote again in Round 2. =)

That is absolutely hilarious.
I would love it if he actually hijacked the printed files and the entire distribution was wrong!
I guess Banksy has a lot to answer for. He has opened a can of worms.

I think I was profiled in a daily video blog in Germany the same day as this guy. Cool idea, I wish this kinda thing happened in the US.
My contest is over already, but I think I’ll do another one in April maybe. So you didn’t miss out completely.
Peace.

Thanks for stopping by, Daniel. A lot of “real world” responsibilities have piled up and kept me offline recently. I’ll be looking for your next contest!

I know what those are like. I’m fortunate to be able to think straight with what’s happened in our family this past month. I let you know what my plans are.
Peace.
