We don't just submit to urban culture.....we create it!
After viewing works of Pollution, Urban Culture and The Urban Animal, its clear to see that every form of the urban is created and shaped by us, the people. The Urban Appearance is determined by each and everyone of us. Who pollutes? We do. Who's culture is it? Our culture. Who's behaviours are displayed? Ours. We are the urban! The urban is a reflection of us! We are the only ones who can make changes. Life is a blank page at first.....its up to us to write the script.

Today is where your book begins....the rest is still unwritten.
So true, I like the way you link the urban to life itself.
