Sheep Dressed Like Wolves

Summary: We live in an age where standing out from the crowd is rewarded, where weird is the new normal and where individual self-expression is no longer rebellion but compliance. We have never been so free to act independently of big business and to take initiative in creatively constructing a new reality based around the dreams of real people. But sometimes we forget to remember that we are on this journey together. We can’t create something beautiful out of this opportunity if we believe that we are in competition with one another, that money is the answer to the problems we ALL face and that if we look after our own everything will be OK. We can’t believe the lies that we are fed; we are NOT wolves and we are not independent. No one is. We are sheep, following the crowd, and we are interdependent, living collectively now, in this time and in this space, together. ````On Sheep Dressed Like Wolves Andy Mort, the man behind Atlum Schema publicly reminds himself of this truth, through the exploration of a widespread, somewhat bizarre and poignant range of subjects. The show includes four tracks each week from interdependent artists that use the self-publishing platform Bandcamp, demonstrating Andy’s belief that the world of music is as vibrant, exciting and eclectic as its ever been. His conversation spans topics such as the self-portrait tea towels we all made at school, the issue of whether you really are what you eat and pleas for people to dress like cartoon characters. It’s weird, it’s often ridiculous, but it also seems to make a lot of sense.
