invader art

You all know the invaders right? If not and if you live in a large city, you've definitely noticed them. See "around the world" on their website if you don't know what I'm talking about.
They started a while back (before 2000) and "invaded" many cities by gluing (with pretty much impossible to remove swimming pool grout!) atari inspired invader mosaics on carefully chosen monuments, places, stores, streets etc. And that's how they entered the art world...
Well, I just discovered (I know I'm kind of late), that they were now playing with rubik's cubes!
This is brilliant... more on their website.
