“There is a movement happening, a quiet one. A low-profile, low-resolution revolution. Comprised of writers and dreamers, of guerrilla artists and thought-ninjas. Those with something to say. They communicate through text inscribed on true public spaces, rather than blogs and forums. Choosing fewer words, even without being bound by 140 character limits. Using ink instead of pixels. Sending messages in living, breathing space. Pens scream louder into the void. Even if permanent ink is not aptly named.” IfsCharacterArtistSpaceMovementRevolutionQuietLimitsMessagesLowsHappeningsBoundsCommunicateBreathingPermanentResolutionPensDreamerScreamVoidFewerInkBlogsProfileForumsNinjaGuerrillas140 CharacterBreathing SpacePixelsSending A Message Author:Erin Morgenstern
