Whatever your opinion on the Occupy movement in general is (as well as the fucking human microphone i think this is a decent idea. Not sure how it will pan out though.

Salutations

I am a twentysomething discoverer who is actively against oppressive power, coffee, and meals without hot sauce. I am quite fond of freedom for all, honeybees, and cities (Oakland, New York, Detroit). I believe music is a term that denotes pleasurable energy with more potential than we can imagine.
