The Name...

My tag, "Wise" comes from my gaming alias WiseCracker.
I came up with that name a long, long time ago when I was in a Counter - Stike server and some kid said, "You must be some kinda smart white guy."
So keeping the root, I changed the name from WiseJanitor, ( Not Another Teen Movie ), to WiseCracker.
I love the name so when I finally started tagging I shortened the name down to Wise because many people called me that in the servers.

When it started...

I first realized that I wanted to be an Street Artist when I met my brother's room mate.
He was from Queens and he and my brother had a party one night and this kid ended up drawing graffiti all over their dorm room.
It looked absolutely amazing.
I fell in love.
I had always wanted to do that sort of thing but that's what got me to take action.
Since then I have been talking to friends who do it and reading books ( with pictures... ) about various artists and what and why they draw.
After reading The Art of Rebellion 2 I came up with my first idea for something which led to the name of my campaign.
This Way To Freedom.
I came up with the idea after watching Saving Private Ryan when i saw a stencil of some foriegn language with a finger going up some stairs.
I thought that it would be a great idea to symbolize parts of my life with the slogan.
It represents all of the times and places that I felt trapped or that there was no way out and I was led there unwillingly.
It will also represent all of the people who have ever been controlled and will symbolize the hope for freedom.
