Velvet Underground & Nico


Velvet Underground music is immersed in a dark and oppressive atmosphere and u cant help but listen to it. just like a drug. a drug people used to listen to to get out of the alienation of contemporary cities.

Shoes on a Wire in NYC


I took this picture in NYC this summer and I was wandering what it means...From a urban semiotic website I read that "Shoes on a Wire" is a well-known street semiotic that drugs are nearby and available for purchase. In New York City there is also a special sort of whistling Dealers use to communicate with each other and with their buyers.
