Bikestruments, the silver return
A local workshop hosted by a red-green political party with the agenda of promoting the bike as a preferred choice for transportation. The name of the workshop was “Pimp your bike”. Fonografiti activists ‘hacked’ the event (to which you might question the environmentally friendliness of using spray paint for ‘pimping’ bikes, btw), and ‘pimped’ some…

Quotation: Lefebvre about the living disorder of the street
“In the street, a form of spontaneous theater, I become spectacle and spectator, and sometimes an actor.
