Invader is a street artist who does mosaics of characters from the game Space Invaders and other retro inspired pixel art all around the world. What do you guys think of him?

Saw one of these not aday ago as I was crossing the street somewhere in Manhattan. Looks like it had seen better days. I definitely like what he's doing/did when it's well executed though.

REGARDLESS it's fun to just cross path across one of these.
The thing is, they are not all made by the same guy. The guy started the "movement" and made a bunch.
The actual implementation is by a ton of people worldwide.
I actually found a very surprising one under a bridge in Geneva. That was real fun to find.

Yeah, pretty old... in fact so old there was a documentary released related to him by Banksy and whatnot:
Check it out if you haven't seen it. I failed to go to the opening night in LA as well, a bit ago. ;[
There was this one massive girl swinging on a letter on a nearby bsns building nearby the theatre, probably still up. Noice stuff.

yah is old, and ""good"" in some way... but is a shame he dont do that with his own art! 
(( is always easy use a brand to be famous with that. The good thing is... he do that in to many, many, many places, thats the cool part. But it dont really have a creative merit, which is a shame
