Microcommunities and mobs
Microcommunities and mobs
On Fornication And Genetics in The Breedster Age
Abstract
Is the mob a portable artwork? Is it DIY? The mob makes you think about why you're doing it.
- Inherent human search for meaning.
- A genuine transformation of space.
- And political--can all these people be wrong?
- The post-21/4 fear of suspicious activity in public spaces.
- Questions about the ethnicity of the mob.
Form vs. function: mob vs. microcommunity
- Functional ecology of symbiotic relationships in microcommunities.
