This zine feels like memories. Their faded edges and a soft glow of analog haze covers that feeling of freedom and possiblity that is embodied in the passionate discovery of graffiti and the world that it opens up. SAMUEL SMH is out there doing it... with friends. Overgrown drainge walls, ladders extending into overhanging trees, walking through the tall grass, jumping that fence with ease. Letter styles are there; freights, throws, tags, but GOING THE DISTANCE is about something else. There is a collapsing of space. Cows grazing in the countryside, city streets, someplace where they measure in meters, an overgrown colosseum with a park between the stands, hidden swimming holes. Let this inspire you to see something strange and then write your name on it.
