The Walls Are Alive: A concise and masterfully conceived introduction to doing your own graffiti. It consists of practical and thorough advice on every step of getting your graffiti skills primed: preparation, how to make a stencil, mapping it out, strategy, escape, post-action regrouping, and also a whole section about wheat-pasting. Valuable also for its forty photographs of great real-world graffiti to ignite ideas and provide examples.

 
awesome! covers such a wide range of things, and its a nice pairing of the diy guide with the walls are alive. the first half teaches ways to construct positive alternatives, the second half has some excellent tips to stay safe during some night time resistance/fun.. benny
VERY good. I keep it in my pocket or my bag wherever I go. I'm thinking about ordering a box and handing them out and leaving them around. =] XXX Brian Nichols
What more could you ask for for 50 cents? This is a great little zine that goes well with "making stuff and doing things" (from microcosm) and gives good info on some things that might be considered a little more offensive. anonymous
Thanks loads for getting it again, my brother got me a copy for Christmas. :) Seb
Any chance of a restock? This sounds like a zine I'd like. Seb
Handy,well written, relevant, inspiring and motivational this is what zines are supposed to be. It is easy to relate to the writers and their techniques for subversion (mmm...subversion) and then turn around and apply their ideas to your own life. Although most of us probably could have figured some of this out on our own (forearm guards? you mean those things we've been making for years?)or we already do them our own way (wheatpating, street writing) but it still makes for a handy reference and great propaganda. I photocopied off like a zillion copies of the walls are alive and pass them out at shows, on street corners, our anarchist coalition, unsuspecting poor kids, etc. Not a bad little zine, check this one out.
