Kinda surprised that no one's posted the Bob Ross X Banksy video yet.

Also kinda surprised at how difficult it is to embed a video here nowadays.

'Create Escape' is near me in the town of Reading, UK, so I enjoyed being able to go see it in person.
A bit of background - as you can see from the final drone shot, it's on the wall of a prison. The prison was closed in 2014 and there has been a bit of a wrangle between the Ministry of Justice (who own the prison and sold it to a developer so they can build apartments) and the local council/residents (who have a campaign to turn it into a hub for the arts). The sale to the developer recently fell through, so the council are trying to buy it again. Most locals believe this is Banksy showing support for the prison to be turned into an arts related community space. The situation is complicated because the prison is a listed (protected) building and has historical interest due to the Victorian design and the fact Oscar Wilde was imprisoned there and wrote 'The Ballad of Reading Gaol' about it. Anyway, it's on a busy road and although it's closed, the prison is still protected by security, so quite daring from Banksy.
The piece was hit by Team Robbo a couple of days ago, who tagged and sprayed over the type writer. A fence has gone up around it now.

But what would an nft of it sell for?
Depends on whether or not they set fire to it.
just a foil for me today, thanks
