"Conformity is inevitable when folks huddle together in rebellion"
-Herbert Gold
This is from a book he wrote on the history of Bohemia(not the country but the lifestyle that has always been around in someway and he believes you can find a community or at least cafe associated with it in just about every country and every large town or city in the U.S.
Think about what you consider to be Bohemian in the past and the present.In his book his considers the old beat writers and poets to have been Bohemian and before them the Dadaist.Do you find yourself influenced by some of the old writers and artists that were a part of creating Bohemia in the US in places like New York and San Francisco and all the little colleg towns.
If not then who does influence you.....
