Farmlab

So i actually went to Farmlab last friday however i just lag on postings as we know. not one of my strong suits at all unfortunatly. besides the point, farmlab was pretty sick if i do say so myself. well there werent speakers anymore the people said, so i got to just walk around and check everything out. it was neat; from interior designing (strange things to say the least) and outdoor reversal! for example, the cars were filled with plants growing out of them. i believe it was to symbolize that mother nature can take back over what we humans have created at any point in time. which is so universally true! i loved this place. it was different. it even had a red trolley car underneath a brigde lol random much?



 also i loved the sign inside the building that said "artists need to create on the same scale that society has the capacity to destroy". it really touched me since im an ecological restoration major when i transfer to humboldt this fall and the world continues to detory nature at a rate where we rebuild it so much slower. technology seems to be the root of what people are concentrated on instead of the world itself that we live on. we need to stop and remember that the world is ours to nuture and not destroy.




as you can see i really enjoyed myself. what i also like was how close it was to the downtown part of LA. its showed that even a place like this can be in the middle of nowhere, yet so close to the city. i suppose anything in life is possible and this place just opened my eyes a little more to the artistic yet radical ideas that people have in the world. that people still take the time to express themselves on a deep natural level then just scratching the surface. i also liked how you got to look around at everything yourself, with no one showing you or explaining things to you, like in a museum, gallery, or center. it was your time to look at everything yourself and make your own assesment on things. i dug it. i hope this place stays open and can give someone else the openess on life it had given me.
