Today while surfing, just by chance, I happened to come across the name Josh On, a guy I went to university with back when he had a different name. He is now an American based activist and digital artist.
It’s well worth visiting his website, particularly the award winning they rule which, among other things, has an interactive mapping system that shows the interconnections between the board members of the most powerful companies in the US.
While looking around I happened across this quote by an American socialist called Howard Zinn. He once said something like: Historians talk about history, plumbers fix the plumbing, and artist make art but who's role is it to talk politics? Surely we can't leave it up to the politicians. It's up to all of us to talk politics; everyone should be political.
It's hard to disagree with him.
