Since Alana is from Australia, I might mention that several decades ago a friend, Dick Smith, hired me to plan a hostile takeover of Rupert Murdoch's media empire. Posing as a wealthy Arab who had just bought Cleveland, Ohio, I arrived in Sydney with an entourage of body guards and business advisors. The media bought the story while Murdoch hired extra guards to keep two photographers in our caravan a block away from his newspaper and TV station. He suffered for several weeks until we all appeared on the Dick Singleton TV show. Rupert was amused and told me he thought I really was a billionaire from Saudi Arabia when he heard I paid a waitress $50 for a cup of coffee and told her to keep the change. Which I did.  ]]>

The ROM has been running its House Paint street art exhibit for a while now though, it's not a dedicated live/work space but it's a lovely acknowledgement from Established Culture in the face of Established Politics' / Established Business' upfront attack on graffiti as meritless hooliganism.]]>
