Graff artist Skullphone has been adminsitering his piece of culture-jamming by hacking into 10 digital billboards in LA. SuperTouchBlog reports:
Hacking into the billboard’s computer network today, our boy positioned his trademark skullphone imagery in between the array of flashing movie, TV, and auto company ads that make up the normal paid advertising barrage on the giant illuminated monitors.

This is a hoax. Skullphone actually paid to get on ClearChannel’s digital boards.

this is a great technique right here. weve got people paying attention, the regular rhythm has been disrupted, and it attracts eyes. more views for the meat and potatoes of this billboard (movie ads, cellulite ads…) is this some strategy or what? just a thought…
