In Mali our  the musical and artistic traditions are largely street culture driven and at this time are pitted against Muslim extremism for their very survival. We often justify inaction by calling the culture of a place a tradition and saying it is evolution if it is stamped out. Creation and the creators creative spark is in us all and no Mullah, or other clergy can ever be so great as to judge the worth of it.

Madrid busking law efficiency vs expression

Bureaucrats have made themselves talent judges in the new Madrid busking law.

You know that no one can spot talent and originality like a politician. Perhaps I should say is more threatened by it. Especially if they don’t agree with what is being expressed.

Women-Are-Heroes

I like it when my initial impression of a thing is changed by increased knowledge of it. I just had this experience while reading The 10 Most Renowned Pieces of Street Art on the http://green-label.com website.The first impression that I had when looking at the 10 pieces was that they were not great as works of art. Some of them in my opinion are mediocre compared to other street art. Some of the artists featured also I think have done better work in some cases. But knowledge of the context is everything in the world of renowned street art.
