"WASNT ME" SHAGY
















OVER MANY YEARS OF TAGGING AND OTHER MARK
MAKING HISTORY IN NEW YORK CITY, ANOTHER MAN
DECIDES TO BOAST OUT HIS EXISTENCE IN THIS WORLD.
THIS TIME IT SEEMS TO BE UNDER GROUND. HE DOES
WHAT HE NEEDS TO DO AND LEAVES WHEN ITS DONE.
THERES NO ANGEL IN HIS MIND THAT SAYS "LETS GET
OUT OF HERE, WE SHOULDN'T BE DOING THIS". BUT
THERES A VOICE SAYING "IM A TAGGER, I GOTTA DO
WAT I GOTTA DO". BEING CLOSE TO THESE TAGGERS
WAS INTENSE. NOTHING WILL STOP THEM.

INK'N IT


















THESE ARE REFILLABLE TAGGING MARKERS. FOUR OF
THESE MARKERS EACH HAS A CERTAIN PURPOSE. THE
ONE ON THE LEFT IS USED BY SQUEEZING THE INK OUT
OF THE BOTTLE. THIS CREATES A DRIPPY MARK ON MOST
SURFACES. NEXT TO THAT IS A BROAD FLAT TIPPED
MARKER. CALLIGRAPHIC TAGS ARE DRAWN WITH THESE.
ITS BETTER TO HAVE A RATHER SMOOTH SURFACE FOR
THIS. IN THE MIDDLE IS THE MOP MARKER WHICH IS JUST
LIKE THE FIRST MARKER, YOU SQUEEZE OUT THE JUICE
INSIDE AND LET THE DRIP EFFECT OCCUR. THIS LAST ONE
IS SIMILAR TO THE BROAD CALLIGRAPHIC MARKER BUT THE
TIP IS MORE NARROW AND THEREFORE CAN BE USED IN
ROUGHER SURFACES. MARK MAKING PROVES THE EXISTENCE
OF YOUR SELF IN THIS WORLD, BUT JUST TO YOU AND
SOME OTHERS THAT MIGHT SEE YOUR TAGS.

MONTANA SILVER CANS



















THIS MONTANA SILVER SPRAY IS THE ONLY SPRAY
WHICH DOESN'T HAVE THE SHAKER BALLS IN THEM.
THIS IS VERY SIGNIFICANT TO TAGGERS AND OTHER
GRAFFITI ARTISTS WHO WALK AROUND WITH CANS
AND DOESN'T WANT TO GET CAUGHT. ITS SIMPLE, SINCE
THERE AREN'T ANY BALLS IN THERE, THE CAN IS
ABSOLUTELY SILENT! YOU CAN RUN WITH IT, JUMP
UP AND DOWN IN FRONT OF THE COPS AND STILL BE
SMILING. SO FAR THE SILVER COLOR IS THE ONLY ONE
WITHOUT THE SHAKER BALLS. THIS IS AWESOME.

DARE'S BREAKTIME COOKIES
















THIS IS DARE'S BREAKTIME COCONUT FLAVORED COOKIE.
PERSONALLY I THOUGHT THIS PACKAGE DESIGN WASN'T
REALLY GIVING ME THE COCONUT FEELING AT ALL. WITH
JUST THIS DESIGN ITS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO TELL THAT
THESE COOKIES ARE GOING TO TASTE LIKE COCONUTS.
COMPARED TO OTHER COOKIE BOX DESIGNS, THIS ONE IS
RATHER PLAIN AND HAS CALMNESS TO IT. THAT MIGHT
WORK FOR THE TARGET AUDIENCE "DARE" WERE GOING
FOR, BUT I STILL CAN'T UNDERSTAND HOW THEY JUST
SIMPLY HAVE THE WORD "COCONUT" AT THE TOP. MAYBE
AN IMAGERY OF A COCONUT MIGHT SATISFY ME.
