My downtown is boring

Are there any good blogs or other online resources that deal with street art that's specifically NOT graffiti ?
Dont get me wrong, I love creative urban graffiti, but I'm thinking more along the lines of : spontaneously hanging framed graffiti in an alley turning it into a temporary gallery. guerilla gardening or impromptu sculpture installations. (like the team who turned the giant black cube into a Rubiks cube, or flash-mob LED Throwie parties) WebUrbanist.com is close but I seem to spend more time navigating their page layout than actually finding what I'm looking for. Ideally something formatted like Ffffound.com or NotCot.org would be super awesome!

Wooster is the main source for that kind of stuff.

Was gonna say Wooster Collective, but since that's been mentioned twice, I'll suggest the Eyebeam reblog. It's not only street art, sometimes not at all (depends on who's reblogging, really) but covers lots of interesting topics.
