Space invaders attack Los Angeles

One could argue that this is the first 8-bit global collective performance art project. It sort of reminds me of the 2007 Boston bomb scare fiasco. But without all that frothy bomb scare aftertaste.

Maybe that’s where those Adult Swim guys got this idea. Because Invader started doing this back in 1999.

Like MF Doom, Invader never shows his face in public. He’s another one of those great artists who, for whatever reason, shun personal publicity. It’s such a great idea. It’s the opposite of fascia celebrity. Can you imagine Branjelina going around in masks? No, of course not. Why? Because their face is the their greatest asset.

Sure they do wonderful things, always trying to adopt babies. And giving away all their money. (Well, surely not all their money).

Les artistes masqué comme MF Doom et Invader sont le melliuere example de hommes qui “walk the walk.”

Sorry, I think my French could use some polish. Living next to Le Lycee Francais de Los Angeles hasn’t helped as much as I’d hoped it would.
