Poster Design and Slogan + song lyrics

Sat, 31/07/2010 - 17:09 — kasperi

First, we should discuss the text of the poster. A catchy slogan, space for announcement of local activism, ISM contact, names of cities where actions take place are suggestions so far. Any ideas are welcome.
Then, a design for the poster needs to be worked out.

suggestions from the chat meeting on Aug.22nd

During the "global chat meeting" on August 22nd the following suggestions were expressed:

We agreed, that the "united symbol" should be an essential part of this poster suggestion. There should be enough space for each group to announce their local actions on the poster. Furthermore the ISM website should be added and maybe "Global Wave of Action for Education" is different languages as well. The world map + names of cities where protests are expected could be added as a background picture.

A catchy slogan was not really discussed.
At one point suggestions such as "Whose Education? Our Education!" and "No Border, No Nation - Free Education!" were mentioned. These, or something else, could also be used in different languages on the poster.

possible slogan/song for "global wave of action"

Here is a song text (melody is existing)

The "global wave of action" has the aim, I see
education shouldn't be private, but for all humans free
we are against the norm of form
the freedom of education helps enormous
to build a better future and a better world
not only govern that what is and looking for your own world
another world is possible for all humans today
I enjoyed the chance to a better world and I have to say:
the new thinking, so I see
it made all humans sure and free!
the new thinking, so I see
it made all humans sure and free!

I try to record this text/song in the next time. If you have any changes please feel free to make your comments, so I can change the text in the right way.

best wishes

Peter

great idea!

hey Peter!

it is difficult to comment on the text, since I don't know how the artist interpretates it and what he tries to say with each word.

But the idea is great. Music connects people :)

Nontheless, here are some comments from my side.

Maybe we can collect some interpretations from different people regarding the phrase "norm of form"? Because I am not sure, if it is clear what is meant by it.

to build a better future and a better world
not only govern that what is and looking for your own world

Maybe "not only govern that what is but looking for your own world" makes it clearer?
Although I am also not sure what you mean with "govern that what is". Maybe "take control of that what is..." can be an alternative?

another world is possible for all humans today
I enjoyed the chance to a better world and I have to say:
the new thinking, so I see
it made all humans sure and free!
the new thinking, so I see
it made all humans sure and free!

So here you are looking back at the world after the social revolution? :-)
I am not sure what you mean with "...made all humans sure...". Maybe something like "it made all humans free and live in dignity" could make it clearer.

Great initiative, Peter :)

thank you reply

Hi,

Ok, I will take the line:
"new thinking made humans free and let them live in digety"

In my opinion all humans are born free (even in prision), but the most humans do not know this! But each human is free from birth on. It is a freeing information and gives power to each human being. This is my intention of this line.

Cheers

Peter
