Space, the hipster frontier

Jonah Engle has a fun piece about the spectacular growth of the most recent iteration of the reclaim-public-space movement, which involves events like pillowfights on Wall Street, drunk croquet in the park, and mobile clubbing.  The scene is going through a predictable evolution (e.g. T-Mobile now wants to sponsor some events) with the predictable concern that yet another subversive movement is being co-opted by corporations.
