  Style Wars 1983

  almost deceivingly simple considering this short documentary grapples with one of the most fundamental antagonisms of our age, namely, the eternal conflict between the 'cool guys' and the 'nerds'. here, its analysis is confined to one historically specific example, that between the graffiti writers and the general public/transport authority/political class.
  it speaks to, however, a wider phenomenon.
  a struggle that exists in all aspects of society.

  i took the side of the cool guys (as always).
