So, of course, regular, liberty-minded adults will always be interested in stirring up the pot. They key to successful activism is not setting it to boil over to the point where it ruins the stove. The "cooks" get a little jumpy. Also, keep the kitchen safe in case any children walk in. The 9-11 folks already leveled the field for you.

So projects like:

  • video projections onto buildings. (Where's the harm in that? Keep it so minors won't get adulterated.)
  • flash mobs
  • negative-graffiti. Washing OFF dirt to send a message (remember the "wash me" sign on the back window of cars?). Who could complain? It's the city's fault they allowed it to get dirty.
  • drapes: tying things to lamp posts, rooftops, or telephone poles without creating work for the city. Use those cute & soft ribbons that would make any prosecuter look like a fool for charging you with "vandalism" or "damage to city property".
  • creative snow constructions or diaramas.
  • billboard liberation (do you remember giving away your visual field of view?)
  • project airborne: farting on airplanes. Captive audience. Video records are best.
  • stickers on the back of street signs: nobody could possibly be steered wrong, so why not? Clear it off when there's too many things there and the judge would make you "outstanding citizen".

Of course, ....that's just the beginning... you have to pass through reality first because most of you are still in the Matrix. Post your story for proof.

Add to the list kids!
