infecting the city



its one of the things in life im just amazed i got to see it like last years one which i came across on my way to long street were i saw this art provoking perfomance about how slavery has become a some sort of thing that the government has hide and pretends that everybody is still mentaly inslaved by the system and how it changes a person perspective about life. You are mentaly brain washed to think the minute you are born, all you have to do is do what everybody is doing but what happens when one moves on the different direction that suits them. Now that really moved me if i could say Spiritualy because breaking free from yourself that has been "Trained" to obey has been awaken by the inner you. Form then on wards i told myself to follow this movement and hopefully be part of sometime in the future.

And this year we had the opportunity to go see it which was on the side entrance of metro rail station in adderly street. I went there on a thursday but with a differnt class but stood far from the rest of them when i saw it wasnt my class. nway there was this band playin some cool cuban music perfoming on a stage made totaly out of everything that can be recycled, i refuse to call it rubbish when it has been put in such use. Like i mean they had trash bags covered with nets. Made me wonder what is a perfect stage, are we listening to music that we didnt understand so that means its trash? or we play and live in dirt?..as usual i was lost in a far world and their music wasnt doing any justice by bringing me back. i loved the perfomance. It is trully a Spear piercing form of art that questions one's conciousness about what you think art is. This form of art really does infect the city.
