It's all about where you place the emphasis, as my initial thoughts were that I was on another 'more-interesting' forum.

Swinging, also known as wife swapping or partner swapping, is a non-monogamous behavior, in which partners in a committed relationship engage in sexual activities with others as a recreational or social activity.[1]

The phenomenon of swinging, or at least its wider discussion and practice, is regarded by some as arising from the freer attitudes to sexual activity after the sexual revolution of the 1960s, the invention and availability of the contraceptive pill and the emergence of treatments for many of the sexually transmitted diseases that were known at that time.

The swinger community sometimes refers to itself as "the lifestyle", or as "the alternative lifestyle".[2] The term "wife swapping" or "partner swapping" is criticized for not accurately describing the full range of sexual activities in which both singles or couples may engage,[3] which is not limited to conventional sex with a person other than their regular sex partner. Other terms sometimes encountered are wife sharing, partner sharing, wife trading and wife lending, which describe similar concepts, usually in sociological or anthropological research.

ive been swinging like that for years, get with the 90s and jump on into the deep end.

that said. on the morrow i believe upon completion of my daily allotment of mandatory employment i will utilize the mass transit system to egress from midtown in the general direction of the art installation. Whereby i will utilize a method of bipedal locomotion to enter the designated ocular viewing area. aka i may swing by after work to check out the digs and whatnots.

solid event, the RAE room was a stound out, also realy liked the ASVP in the stairwell on the 3rd floor

Wish RAE had done more rooms; blatant standout. That and the Coby Kennedy gun machine.

[stvro22]

Overall good show. Lots to see. I agree the RAE room was phenomenal.

[thriftypix]

Of course, shows aren't competitions. And the fact is I saw a lot of fantastic work last night. But RAE's room was ridiculous! A totally immersive space from an artist expressing himself at the highest level in a powerful way. Wow.

Edit: Originally wrote "at the highest level." But I think RAE still has room to grow as an artist and I for one can't wait to see what he has in store!

This show has so much buzz in NYC. The line to get in was down the block last night. Anyone else check it out?

What's interesting with these two links is the very different impressions they give, based on their respective selections of photographs.

When I clicked on the Gothamist site, the show looked like one I'd make an effort to visit.

When I then clicked on the Street Art News site, the same show looked like a wet-dream backdrop for happy poseurs and posturers.

Yesterday was one of the best street art experiences in my life.  The show
at 22nd Street was absolutely amazing.  The scene was positively a unique NYC street art movement spectacular and the only way you could experience the vibe was to be there.  It was like an indescribable concert.  I had the pleasure of taking the kids along for the ride and they were blown away by all the art as well.  The interesting thing is that my little rug rats favorite room was the RAE room and they had no idea who RAE is.  The highlight of the show was the wax figure of a human being
laying on the flow and light up by the artist ELLE.  I took over a hundred photos but here are some of my favorite. Picasso Versus Dali
