Disobey and change the world

Jani Leinonen founds School of Disobedience and launches an Activist Idea Competition to change the world through protest.

The School of Disobedience opens its doors 4th of September in the Finnish National Gallery but is already looking for great ideas for protest on its website. School of Disobedience offers its students revolutionary ideas and concrete tools for making the world better. The School of Disobedience asks what kind of a world we want in stead of the present one, and teaches how to fight for the important causes.

Sign up for the classes or take part in the Innovation Competition at http://disobedience.co or http://tottelemattomuus.fi

Jiri Geller and graffiti artist Kaos Bang! combines danger, beauty and lightness in an explosive exhibition, where the contradiction between Geller’s perfectly manufactured and polished surfaces and Kaos rougher expression creates a flaming cocktail.
