"The medium is the message."

Did that guy read Supply and Demand to brush up before the interview? He let that little quip fly like a natural.

No, I'm pretty sure he's had some prior experience with the concept.

I wish they would have shown it from the start. I'm guessing that they project the image on the wall and trace in the major lines - or is there a better/different process for scaling to this size?

they probably used a grid. ive seen this done on the building-sized painted advertisements in downtown LA by the Staples center.

Who knows what technical means they employed? It was impressive to see someone "Get Stuff Going" (tm).
