What will the murals in Fukushima say in 30 years?
100 years and beyond!
The list of Nuclear Nightmares will continue. We know this.

Thank goodness for the artists (visual, fine, performing, etc.) of the world.
His mural is a perfect illumination of the saying: "A picture is worth a thousand words."

My thoughts exactly. I wish more artists would take this issue on around the world.
I think the music is so appropriate too.

Nothing more powerful at opening people's minds than art. The irony is almost painful. What a sad and sickening contrast. I was thinking about getting mannequins and dressing them up in the Tyvek suits and portable respirators, while posing them throughout NYC doing everyday things like leaning against a light pole reading a paper. It would help illustrate how people in Fukushima and practically the whole of Japan are suffering. Is this a future you want for your children?
P.S. Anyone think the song in the video would make a great dubstep remix? I made a sick remix in my head. lol Now, if only I could use Acid or something similar!

Sounds like a fantastic idea, Bones! Do it! Maybe Christo would help fund it or join forces? I can picture it now. Powerful visual statement. You'd definitely get people sitting up and taking notice! A vital first step towards their "awakening."

Sounds absolutely wonderful Bones! Your right! LSD would help. lol!

but back on topic:
is it not a kind of pervert to spray there where the local teens are all sick or ill or who say, that the local teens knows,
what street art is or how it will be make ?
should i tell you what will be happens to me if i would spray in south l.a.?ny-city?rotterdam?
"normaly" graffiti is war, when you do it on the streets…
but art is allright,
everywhere and everytime.
but sometimes would be a workshop with the local kids more allrighter then art ever could be to them.

Atomic Suicide (fits eh?)
Posted by Mark Sircus – Director on 10 April 2012
No matter what I say, it is not going to make a dent in the lockstep of denial that exists around the horror of the nuclear industry and Fukushima. What is happening in northern Japan and the radiation contamination in the United States and Europe, which has rained down since March 11th of 2011, is staggering and beyond most peoples’ capacity to comprehend.

StillJill, I wasn't sure your question: "Is it my birthday?" was actually saying it was your birthday today or if you were somehow making a reference to the above-mentioned video by a guy named Kevin? But when I saw everyone wishing you a happy birthday, I guess everyone thinks it is your birthday, so just in case, if it IS your birthday, I want to wish you the HAPPIEST! and HEALTHIEST! birthday! May you celebrate your wonderful birth and life each and every day too!
And if it turns out that it isn't actually your birthday today, then please consider this an EARLY birthday wish.
(And if it is a different day, please let us know when your actual birthday is, ok?)
Big birthday hugs and much love…xoxo

God I love these indescribably WONDERFUL souls God!!!!! (Thank you!)
I shall be more careful with my 'comments',…maybe,…I have been misunderstood twice today. But what the hell,….no one even sent me a card the past two years, when it was my birthday!
