Then, the duo fixed their crosshairs firmly on the bridge's underside, and started etching out dozens - maybe hundreds - of tags on one of its massive supports. They held still as a police boat floated under the bridge. Later, they allowed passersby to pick up the equipment and try it for themselves...
...artists started laser tagging in earnest only a year ago; they devised the basic concept while art fellows at Eyebeam, an art and technology center in New York where Powderly and Roth refined their open-source technology. The system is simple: The duo will locate an appropriate building or structure (avoiding buildings with windows to prevent any accidental laser-eye injuries) and aim the projector at the surface; with each flick of the laser pointer, the computer software registers a streak of light (see the equipment).

...alchemy that gave birth to Akron blues-rock duo the Black Keys’ fifth album, “Attack & Release,” may seem unlikely. Since their 2002 debut, “The Big Come Up,” the Keys have been the standard-bearers of self-produced, self-recorded, basement-tape rebellion. Their high-water marks, 2003’s “Thickfreakness” and 2004’s “Rubber Factory,” distilled their blues formalism and lo-fi aesthetic into a highly evolved and deeply primal sound...
