	+ + To attach his posters, Spaceman utilizes what is called wheat paste, an adhesive made by mixing flour into boiling water. It is a popular form of street art and new to the Rochester graffiti scene. ["Ginger Beard"] uses this method as well.

Art galleries you know? …No one wants to be inside… I’m just trying to take art outside and give people something to smile about. It’s like art for the working person.
