HIPHOP Aesthetics: The 5 Senses, Part 1-SIGHT
Danielle Eliska Lyle
Detroit, Michigan, USA / 2009
 

To Generation X, the essential 5 elements of survival are air, water, fire, earth and HIPHOP…

 

HIPHOP is more than Dirty Dozens on playgrounds, cardboard on sidewalks, b-boxing contests and tagged freeway overpasses—it is liberation through expression and sound.

 

HIPHOP Aesthetics: The 5 Senses is a documentary series on the elements of HIPHOP in Detroit. We get up close and personal with two of Detroit’s finest—SINTEX, the Graffiti guru and Fel’le, the Airbrush don. They stimulate our visual, bringing us to a climax while we feast on eye candy in Part I— SIGHT.
