Isn’t melbourne just the best place to take that great facebook photo?
As I nonchalantly graze the walls of some heavily graffitied alleyway and pretend I’m not posing for a photo, I wonder how these walls could be the perfect backdrop for my internet self.

It’s swell to look connected to the culture, but I wonder if it’s out of appreciation or association?There’s been so much leaching off street culture, like the urban arts in the last few years. It makes me wonder if its just as forced to consciously pushing Adelaide for the same kind of bombed alleys and doorway as in Melbourne. Or should the process just be left to happen organically. Too bad that means seeing more Adelaide names in Melbourne than in Adelaide at the moment.To get it out there. If you’re in Melbourne, street art tourists should keep their eyes pealed for names like NOKIER, LUSH, REKAs tags, and BNE.
