The streets are our modern day commons. It is the place where we connect, play, and engage with each other to create a more sustainable world.

“Reclaiming The Street” is a music video that encourages us to grow community by engaging with each other in the common areas known as the streets. As society grows more isolated and individuals more lonely, we must take it upon ourselves to see that our happiness comes from meaningful engagement with other people. Reclaiming the street offers us a solution to the Age Of Loneliness that we find ourselves in today.
