Gardner Campbell writes, of edupunk, "The bottom line for me is that any ideology, any movement, any slogan or fashion that crowds other worthy things off the stage is just not worth it." And finds his balance. "If you'll sway to 'Eyes of the World' with me, I promise I'll pogo when you turn up 'God Save The Queen.' And we'll meet at 'London Calling.'" The Clash are on my iPod, all right, but when I suggested tracks for our edupunk rumble at SXSW, I sent in a track from Luba. The secret to edupunk, for me, is that there isn't a stage. It isn't one or the other. It isn't that someone gets to be a star and the other one goes home.
