La Noche en Blanco: Graffiti Virtual by Max Gold

After being wowed by the Deambulants and other sights of La Noche en Blanco, I made my way to the Caixaforum building of Madrid to see more. Pushing through the crowd to get closer, I gaped in awe at the enormous exhibition called Graffiti Virtual created by the Catalan collective Omnivor Lab. Consisting of a series of animated digital graffiti projected onto the building's facade, the effect of these ominous projections, depicting graffiti of people doing graffiti, contributed to the dream-like quality of the nocturnal festival.

La Noche en Blanco: The Deambulants
This past weekend at Madrid's annual La Noche en Blanco, a city-wide, all-night arts and culture festival, I watched the Deambulants defy the laws of gravity at 00:30 in the Real Madrid stadium. The floor became the walls and the walls became the floor as the improvisational circus performers and acrobats scaled the stadium, mixing moves from circus acts and modern dance with bizarre,...
