Graffiti archaeology

My undergraduate degree was in archaeology and I love learning about how information can be presented (Edward Tufte
is my information presentation hero). So imagine my delight when I unearthed this website that peels back graffiti palimpsests in New York, LA and San Francisco. What's most interesting is how the graffiti walls are presented as a timeline that you can explore showing the paint spattered walls changing over time.
