4-9-12

Everyday you learn something new. Our group has finally had our meeting with our contact, Terry Laaker. He gave us a lot of information that was very intriguing and helpful. He told us a lot about the people who tag, how they are mostly just artist trying to get their work out and many of them are young. He told us about the art of graffiti, and the history. From all the information we gathered from him we have a lot more to work with now, but it also appears we have taken the wrong approach. We should have worked more towards the idea of art and legal graffiti, instead of pushing anti graffiti. Its good that we have more information and a better understanding now, but we have to undo a lot of what we've done, starting with our website. At least we have been given more time on the project to do so. It also gives us more time to start creating a great presentation. The end of April will come up before we know it, so we need to get this done soon.
