SO BE IT

Crayon representation

Movie wall

The movie "Pump Up the Volume" was very influential on me growing up. It still is, though it could use some updating (like using podcasts instead of a pirate radion station).

One of Christian Slater's character Mark's most famous catchphrases is, "so be it!" It means you can't control everything so you have to work with what you have. It means that if those in power are going to take an action, you are worthy of your reaction. It means screw the repercussions. It means anything that it means to you. It means whaterver you need it to mean- if it gets you there.

I've long wanted to make a large painting of this wall, but in the end I made a crayon drawing of it. Strangely enough, it might be enough for me.

So be it.
