Editorial note
- "Buffings" in the context of graffiti refers to the activity of covering or removing existing graffiti, often to create a clean slate for new work. This can be seen as a respectful act when done by another graffitist preparing to create their own work, or as a playful act when graffitists creatively respond to the actions of those tasked with graffiti removal. However, it can also be seen negatively when it is done by authorities or companies as a form of censorship or control. The concept of buffings is complex and multifaceted, reflecting the dynamic and often contentious nature of graffiti culture.
