Draw The Line Somewhere

I think I have decided that art is the only way were ever going to get out of this mess that we’ve created for ourselves. Politics is too slow, the normal channels by which change occurs are self sustaining only, too bogged down in bureaucracy to contribute any meaningful action.

I could of course delve into a highly educated ramble about the power of art in modern day society but to be frank I’m busy, and such a task sounds time consuming and really rather odious.

I shall soon descend downstairs to make my dinner (I’m treating myself to sausages for the third meal in a row) choosers can’t be students, beggars can’t be students and choosers can’t be beggars, you get the picture.

  1. oooh, I too have just spent the day on a soul-destroying economics essay. I redeemed it a little by contriving to end it along the lines of “… in conclusion, that’s why ECONOMICS IS WRONG ABOUT EVERYTHING;)

    Here’s some graffiti for you, a bit grim for this site perhaps but still not to be ignored: http://heathlander.wordpress.com/2008/04/09/no-biggie/

    I also saw loads of interesting graffiti – some very political, some very artistic, some both – on a trip to Spain last month. Most of it was in areas where I didn’t feel that comfortable taking my camera out, but it lives on in my heart if not on my hard disk.

    Anyway welcome back to the world of blog.
