I found this video and thought it was cool to watch the painting of a huge mural...this is called mixed media graffiti.

Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.

Fernando Pessoa, 1918

it's cool, but it's more like mixed styles than mixed media. in general, mixed media art means using multiple materials (paint, chalk, torn paper, etc.). This is all paint

Technically this is true. However, on many occasion artists have used the term "mixed media" when they A) either do not want people to know what they use when they make soemthing or B) want more attention than the guy who is just claiming 'paint'. Considering he is using a wall to hold the paint it could be considered mixed media like nearly any other form of art.
