Listening for the Lexicon of Cultural Shift

Hi everybody,

Here is an article that I found to be really forward thinking in that it’s a compilation of theory and thought from outside of traditional academia. It deals mainly with art, the artist, and the role of both in social change in the community and the larger cultural landscape. Please feel free to skip around to different subjects once you get through the introduction.
