I have been brainstorming some initial ideas for my "the revolution will not be televised" cover. I've started focusing on this motif of 'plugging in', derived from the song quote 'you will not be able to plug in, turn on and cop out'. I also started using 'live' as a slogan in some of my thumbnails, again playing on a song quote : 'the revolution will be live'. I think this is relevant to today because we use technology, such as television as a method of escapism and Gill Scott Heron's song is about being an activist - getting up and doing something about what you see wrong with the world.
