This indicates that commuter journeys dominate during the week, but casual journeys account for the majority of movements at weekends. Journey purposes on Saturdays and Sundays are quite similar. Table 3-1 and Figure 3-9 outline the average weekday number of boarders and alighters at the busiest stations in the period 1999/00 to 2006/07. The ranking of stations changed somewhat in the period. Overall, there was steady growth in passenger volumes from 1999/00 to 2006/07 at all stations with the exception of Crossharbour, which saw a decline. The busiest DLR stations in 1999/00 were Bank and Canary Wharf. While Canary Wharf /Heron Quays experienced strong year-on-year growth from 1999/00 to 2006/07, Bank lost demand in 2000/01 and grew much more slowly thereafter due to the opening of Jubilee line which provided an alternative route for DLR passengers from Central London to the Isle of Dogs. A further drop in DLR passengers is expected at Bank when the Jubilee line upgrade (to allow a service level of 30 trains per hour) becomes operational. 3.5 Passenger volumes at stations Figure 3‑7 Saturday DLR journey purposes Source: DLR Period Statistics Report 06/07 Figure 3‑6 Weekday DLR journey purposes Source: DLR Period Statistics Report 06/07 Figure 3‑8 Sunday DLR journey purposes Source: DLR Period Statistics Report 06/07 Table 3‑ Busiest stations (stations with more than 0,000 passengers per day in 2006/07) Station 1999/00 1999/00 Rank 2000/01 2001/02 2002/03 2003/04 2004/05 2005/06 2006/07 2006/07 Rank 1999-06 growth Canary Wharf/ Heron Quays1 43,590 2 47,798 50,424 63,845 59,715 59,136 64,317 66,803 1 53% Bank 45,458 1 41,910 43,989 45,336 47,455 50,208 55,813 64,207 2 41% Lewisham 10,305 5 14,044 16,447 19,671 20,865 22,097 24,430 26,555 3 158% Canning Town 4,500 11 9,811 11,296 12,850 14,119 14,067 15,511 21,299 4 373% Stratford 11,598 4 12,759 14,126 15,230 15,328 15,692 16,890 17,483 5 51% Limehouse 9,117 9 9,519 10,662 12,837 13,970 14,861 15,970 17,142 6 88% Cutty Sark 4,349 12 7,081 8,077 9,675 11,070 12,063 12,533 13,011 7 199% Shadwell 8,725 10 7,861 8,294 9,330 9,917 10,491 11,533 12,257 8 40% Westferry 9,223 8 7,596 8,187 8,904 9,185 9,681 10,228 11,438 9 24% Crossharbour 14,830 3 12,856 13,425 12,971 12,126 11,318 11,024 11,422 10 -23% South Quay 9,963 6 12,798 13,151 12,887 11,427 10,085 10,565 10,746 11 8% Tower Gateway 9,806 7 8,778 9,373 10,334 10,103 10,436 10,777 10,652 12 9% Greenwich2 4,206 13 5,139 5,310 5,289 4,963 4,694 4,838 10,452 13 148% (1) Heron Quays partially closed in 2001/02 (2) There was some underreporting of passengers at Greenwich prior to 2006 Docklands Light Railway 2006/07 Review 7 2 Key statistics Key findings • The DLR network has expanded from 13 km in 1987 to 31 km in 2007. • Passenger journeys have increased almost tenfold since 1988, from 6.6m to 61m journeys a year. • On average, DLR carries almost twice as many passengers per train km today as it did in 1988. 4 Docklands Light Railway 2006/07 Review Docklands Light Railway 2006/07 Review 5 The Docklands Light Railway (DLR) 2006/07 Review outlines the railway’s achievements since its opening in 1987 and highlights its challenges over the medium term.

3.4 Market segments

Figure 3-6 to Figure 3-8 show the journey purposes of DLR travellers on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays in 2006/07. This indicates that commuter journeys dominate during the week, but casual journeys account for the majority of movements at weekends. Journey purposes on Saturdays and Sundays are quite similar.

Table 3-1 and Figure 3-9 outline the average weekday number of boarders and alighters at the busiest stations in the period 1999/00 to 2006/07. The ranking of stations changed somewhat in the period. Overall, there was steady growth in passenger volumes from 1999/00 to 2006/07 at all stations with the exception of Crossharbour, which saw a decline.

The busiest DLR stations in 1999/00 were Bank and Canary Wharf. While Canary Wharf /Heron Quays experienced strong year-on-year growth from 1999/00 to 2006/07, Bank lost demand in 2000/01 and grew much more slowly thereafter due to the opening of Jubilee line which provided an alternative route for DLR passengers from Central London to the Isle of Dogs. A further drop in DLR passengers is expected at Bank when the Jubilee line upgrade (to allow a service level of 30 trains per hour) becomes operational.

Passenger numbers at Canary Wharf grew by 53% over the period, despite the presence of the Jubilee line as any loss in demand from Central London will have been balanced by increased interchange activity between the Jubilee line and DLR at Canary Wharf.

Canning Town station saw the largest changes in usage from 1999/00 to 2006/07. Canning Town became the fourth busiest station from eleventh within 6 years and saw an overall growth in patronage of 373%. In the future, after the opening of extensions to Woolwich Arsenal, Stratford International and Dagenham Dock, Canning Town is forecast to become the busiest station on the DLR network due to the amount of interchange between services.

Particularly strong growth was also observed at key stations on the Lewisham extension, especially at Lewisham, Greenwich and Cutty Sark. The extension to Lewisham opened new opportunities for rail access to East London and Kent.

Limehouse station experienced growth of 88% in the period from 1999/2000 to 2006/07. The progressive shift in trip distribution, with increasing number of Isle of Dogs employees commuting from the east, has led to growing interchange movements between c2c services and the DLR at Limehouse.

Stratford is the fifth busiest station due to the large number of interchange options it offers. It continued steady growth despite the opening of the Jubilee line in 1999. This trend is expected to continue and DLR’s capacity will be increased by the Stratford station upgrade. By 2009, the Jubilee line upgrade will become fully operational, catering for additional growth in the corridor.

premièring A Still Roar by Kerry Andrewcommissioned by City Chorus to celebrate our 90 years

in the City of London

Welcome to our 90th birthday concert

We hope you will enjoy the evening’s music, and most especially the new

piece written for us, and for this occasion, by Kerry Andrew.

It feels a little strange to be celebrating the anniversary of an event that

took place before any of us were born, when the choir existed under

a different name. We are, however, proud of our history, and of being

heirs to one of the best traditions in this country, that of amateur music-

making. We read more and more these days of volunteer musicians, but

I prefer the perhaps old-fashioned word which expresses the unifying

element of love: love of the music itself, and love of recreating that

music in the best way we can, whatever level our abilities.

City Chorus performs a wide variety of music, from Baroque discoveries

to discordant Ives, music for the Church to secular light songs, in

English, Latin, Arabic, Polish, Japanese… We are lucky to have the

patient, professional and inspirational direction of Paul Ayres, and the

brilliant, long-suffering support of our accompanist, Philip Shannon.

It was Paul who proposed holding a competition to enable us to

commission a piece for tonight’s celebration, and he and Philip, with two

other adjudicators, had the difficult and stimulating task of selecting the

finalist. The outcome places us firmly in the 21st century, encouraging

new music by example while remaining true to the riches of past

decades and centuries. We are delighted to have in our audience

tonight a number of entrants of our competition.

I hope that tonight’s performance will encourage you to come to more

of our concerts in the future, or, even better, to join us as we indulge our

love of singing!

A Still RoarI – The Roaring Loom

of Time

II – Barbary!

III – The Fattened Land

IV – With Silver Paved

V – Look Well To Your Locke

III – The Fattened Land

A consideration of the City of London in our modern economic climate, using some remarkably prescient texts:

That City’s atmosphere is dark and dense,

…With many a potent evil influence,

…adding poison to the poisoned air;

Infections of unutterable sadness,

Infections of incalculable madness,

Infections of incurable despair

…The mighty river flowing dark and deep

…Vague- sounding through the City’s sleepless sleep,

James Thompson, From The City of Dreadful Night

***

London, thou great emporium of our isle,

O thou too bounteous, thou too fruitful Nile!

…Thy tides of wealth o’erflow the fattened land;

Yet monsters from thy large increase we find

Engendered on the slime thou leavest behind.

John Dryden, From The Medal

IV – With Silver Paved

Using lines from a poem praising the city after the Great Fire, this movement is more generally inspired by Peter Ackroyd’s chief theme of his biography, that of London’s self-rebuilding, as well as construction sounds collected by me in the City for the choral material.

…already from this chemic flame,

I see a city of more precious mould:

Rich…

With silver paved, and all divine with gold

.

…She shakes the rubbish from her mounting brow,

And [has] renew’d her charter’s date,

Which Heaven will to the death of time allow.

More great than human now…

Now deified she from her fires does rise:

Her widening streets on new foundations trust,

And opening into larger parts she flies.

John Dryden, From London After The Great Fire

V – Look Well To Your LockeA sense of coming full-circle, this final movement merges modern and historic cries of London - the City’s awareness and assimilation of its past.

Modern London calls were collected at the London Metal Exchange, Petticoat Lane market and Brick Lane, with additional material inspired by the website www.soundsurvey.org.uk.

Here`s fine rosemary…

Come buy my ground ivy.

Here`s fetherfew, gilliflowers and rue…

Come buy my mint, my fine greenmint.

Here`s fine lavender for your cloths.

Here`s parsley and winter- savory…

Here`s balm and hyssop…

Roxburgh Ballads

Look well to your locke,

Yur fier and your light

And so goodnight(Traditional rhyme)

Gemme of all joy

O towne of townes!...

…thou art the flour of cities all

William Dunbar, As before

This piece, written in honour of City Chorus’

90th anniversary, celebrates the City of

London through its sounds, both past and

present. It is hugely influenced by Peter

Ackroyd’s ‘London: The Biography’, which

I used as a starting point for any texts and

which were then expanded upon; I was

also inspired to be a flâneur in the City in

order to collect sounds!

I am very grateful to Paul Ayres and City

Chorus for this commission.

A still roar Kerry Andrew

I – The Roaring Loom of Time

An introduction to the City, imagined as if approaching it from afar and suddenly bursting into its overwhelming brightness and power:

…the low unceasing roar one always hears in the air…

I confess that when I hear it I almost feel as if I am

listening to the roaring loom of time.

James Russell Lowell

***

Like that of Bees, a strange humming…A still roar

Bruce Smith

***

You are now

In (London) that great sea

Percy Bysshe Shelley

***

Gemme of all joy! O, towne of townes!

Fourmeth none fairer sith the flode of Noy:

O, towne of townes! Seemliest in sight!

Most mighty (carbuncle) of virtue and valour

Sweet paradise precelling in pleasure

Seemliest in sight!..Gemme of all joy

thou art the flour of Cities all

II – Barbary!

A frantic celebration of London’s past noise!

Carts and Coaches…thundering...men, women, and

children...hammers are beating…Tubs hooping...Pots

clinking…water-tankards running…

Thomas Dekker

***

Into the peopled streets to goe..

…that hotch-potch of so many noyses,

Black- saunts of so many seuerall voyces,

…Chaons of rude sounds,that harmo[n]y,

And Dyapason of harsh Barbary.

…There squeaks a cart wheele, here a tumbrel rumbles

Heere scolds an old Bawd,there a Porter grumbles.

Heere two tough Car men combat for the way,

There two for looks begin a coward fray,

Two swaggering knaues here brable for a whore,

There brauls an Ale knight for his fat grown score.

Everard Guilpin from his verse Skialetheia

***

Thou endless stream of men and moving things!

…the quick dance

Of colours, lights and forms; the deafening din;

A raree show is here,

With children gathered round;

…A company of dancing dogs,

Or dromedary, with an antic pair

Of monkeys on his back; a minstrel band of

Savoyards;…

An English ballad singer.

…For eyes and ears! What anarchy and din,

Barbarian and infernal…

Chattering monkeys dangling from their poles,

And children whirling in their roundabouts,

…the crowd

Inviting; with buffoons against buffoons

Grimacing, writhing, screaming…

The fiddle weaves,

The salt box…rattles…the kettle drum thumps,

…the trumpet puffs out his cheeks…

William Wordsworth, Lines taken and re-ordered from Seventh Book Prelude

Commissioned by City Chorus to celebrate their 90th anniversary year, and premièred at St Sepulchre without Newgate on July 8th, 2011.

The texts

It was a pleasure rummaging

for texts for this piece, and as

is customary for me, I enjoyed

reducing, re-arranging and

combining poems and prose in

each movement. All texts used

(along with a brief programme

note for each movement) are as

shown here.

Charles Ives 1874 – 1954

The son of a prominent bandsman, and a singer, Ives was composing and playing drums in his father’s band at 12, and at 14 was a salaried church organist. His father had highly original ideas about ear training; and to quote Ives: “…he would have us sing a tune in Eb but play the accompaniment in C”, and he himself experimented with polytonality from an early age.

Ives was an excellent athlete, but his father forbad his participation in sport at Yale in the interests of his studies. On graduating he went into insurance whilst continually composing.

Ives embarked upon setting some of the Psalms when about 20, in each one exploring different ideas: dissonance, polytonality, wholetone triads, and the like. The early version of Psalm 90, dating from this time, was lost but in about 1924 he began to reconstruct, and then recompose it, exploring contrasting harmonic idioms. “Mrs Ives recalled his saying that it was the only one of his works that he was satisfied with” [Grove 1980]

Fritz Werner 1899 – 1977

Known particularly for his choral direction of Bach and Schütz, Fritz Werner composed this attractive duo in 1973 for the trumpeter Edward Tarr. While the outer movements are brilliantly contrapuntal, the lyrical slow movement quotes Luther’s hymn “Erhalt uns, Herr, bei deinem Wort” (Lord, keep us in thy word), the basis of Bach’s own Cantata 126.

Kerry Andrew

Kerry Andrew is a freelance composer/performer and music educator based in London. She specialises in contemporary vocal music and music-theatre with a twist of pop, jazz, folk, world music and everything in between. She has a PhD in composition from the University of York, and is a published choral composer with two large-scale releases on Boreas Music. Her choral and experimental work has been heard on BBC Radio3, BBC Radio 4, 6Music and Classical FM. Her vocal trio The Song of Doves ended the national memorial service to commemorate the victims of London’s July 7th 2005 bombings, and was broadcast live on national news channels. She won a British Composer Award in 2010 and is this year’s Handel House Composer in Residence.

She performs with the experimental vocal trio juice, chamber-jazz/classical/rock collective DOLLYman, prog-jazz crew Metamorphic and a leftfield alt-folk soloist You Are Wolf.

Michael Head 1900 – 1976

Head initially studied mechanical engineering, but abandoned that path and went to the Royal Academy of Music in 1919 to study composition, having already published some songs the previous year.

He was later appointed professor of piano at the RAM, and became very involved in examining and adjudicating.

He was known above all as a composer and performer of (in particular his own) vocal music.

The simple charm of his songs has ensured that most have remained in print.

Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck 1562 – 1621

Sweelinck came from a family of organists: a grandfather and uncle, and his own father whom he succeeded at the Oude Kerk in Amsterdam, and where one of his sons followed him in turn.

He spent almost his whole life in Amsterdam, occasionally visiting other towns but never venturing abroad. And yet he was was well known as an outstanding teacher throughout Northern Europe.

The Calvinists forbad the use of the organ during church services, and so his duties were principally playing for an hour twice a day, before or after services, leaving him plenty of time for his teaching.

Sweelinck is considered the last and most important composer of the golden Netherlandish era. He wrote much keyboard music, but he was predominately a composer of vocal music. He wrote numerous chansons and motets, and 153 psalms, published in seven volumes, two of them in Berlin.

He never set his native tongue, and most of the vocal pieces are in French, suggesting that they were not intended for use in public Calvinist services but for private amateur use.

Ralph Vaughan Williams 1872 – 1958

Vaughan Williams’ vast and varied output includes a setting of Psalm 90 as the motet Lord, Thou hast been our Refuge (1921). In it he takes a version of the psalm’s text, but at the start underpins it with the first verse of the hymn “O God our help in ages past” (Hymns Ancient and Modern no. 165) to the tune St Anne. The opening phrase of the hymn is briefly echoed later in the alto and bass parts, and in the organ accompaniment.

At the time that he wrote this, Vaughan Williams was working on the Pastoral Symphony, Sancta Civitas and The Shepherd of the Delectable Mountains, later incorporated into The Pilgrim’s Progress, and the unaccompanied Mass in G minor. In these inter-war works Vaughan Williams was seeking a spiritual, if not overtly Christian, view of the world.

George Frideric Händel 1685 – 1759

Händel first visited London in 1710, and was received at the court of Queen Anne.

He returned in 1712, and the following year the Queen gave him a commission which resulted in the Utrecht Te Deum, a Jubilate and the Ode for Queen Anne’s Birthday, in which Händel modelled himself on Purcell.

This music also celebrated the accomplishment of the Treaty of Utrecht to end the war of the Spanish succession, negotiated by Anne’s Tory ministry.

The librettist was Ambrose Philips (1674 – 1749), a poet and a Whig politician.

London increasingly needs. This work programme is intended to start the debate.

174 An important principle in this work programme is that ways of providing increased aviation capacity should be examined in a fair and open manner. For this reason a proposed set of criteria against which the options should be assessed are set out Figure 21. Two core objectives and several other groups of objectives are identified. They are based

on the vision, objectives and goals set out in the Mayor’s London Plan and Transport Strategy, together with a number of basic requirements for realistic options to be likely to succeed. Background to the development of these criteria is set in Appendix D. These criteria will be finalised at the outset of Part 2 of the work programme.

Objectives and Requirements Challenge

CORE OBJECTIVE 1 Meeting the shortfall in capacity permissible within environmental limits

CORE OBJECTIVE 2 New capacity facilitates hub operations

Economic Objectives Maximising range of destinations and frequency of service

Improving airport reliability and quality of passenger service

Supporting economic regeneration and tackling deprivation

Spatial Objectives Accommodating economic and population growth sustainably, tackling inequality and improving quality of life

Maximising London and the UK’s international competiveness and success

Supporting easy, safe and convenient access to jobs, opportunities and facilities for everyone

Aviation Industry Requirements Sustain London’s key business markets

Sustain London’s key leisure markets

External airport Requirements Wider benefits from associated surface access infrastructure

Access to labour markets

Impacts upon other areas - Quality of Life

Impacts upon other areas - Business

Environmental Requirements Seek compatibility with climate change and emissions targets

Adhere to UK and EU air quality requirements

Adhere to UK and EU noise requirements

Minimise adverse impacts on key habitats and environmentally sensitive areas

Cost Requirement Investment constitutes an attractive proposition to the private sector

Airport infrastructure costs

Surface access infrastructure costs

After three years of operation, the success of the London City Airport extension in achieving its objectives is summarised below.

6.1 Progress against scheme objectives

Scheme objective Year three results Years one to three results (2005-2008)Progress against

objective

Provide a direct rail connection to London City Airport that will enable future growth potential of the airport to be realised without adverse effect on the environment.

•5.1millionpassengershaveusedtheextension (1% increase over Year Two).

•Averageof391,000passenger per month.

•InYearThree(2008)theDLRextensionis estimated to have emitted 2,440 tonnes of carbon dioxide compared to 3,780 tonnes of carbon dioxide for alternative modes. Therefore the DLR extension resulted in a net saving of 1,340 tonnes of carbon dioxide which is equivalent to the carbon dioxide produced by 139 UK citizens in one year.

•14millionpassengershaveused the extension.

•Averageof349,000passengers per month.

•Passengernumbershavebeenmorethandouble the original forecasts (2004/5) in each of Years 1-3.

•Between2006and2008DLRextensionis estimated to have emitted 6,740 tonnes of carbon dioxide compared to 10,450 tonnes of carbon dioxide for alternative modes. Therefore the DLR extension resulted in a net saving of 3,710 tonnes of carbon dioxide which is equivalent to the carbon dioxide produced by 384 UK citizens in one year.

Looking ahead, the DLR extension continues to expand its capacity and network to accommodate future levels of travel demand. The initial evidence suggests that the DLR extension to Woolwich Arsenal has already been successful with around 16,000 passengers each weekday.

The opening of the Stratford International DLR Extension in 2010 will provide a key link to the Olympic Park, Stratford City and high speed domestic and international heavy rail services from south of the Thames. The extension will be a key connection during the Olympic and Paralympic Games in 2012, providing a link between venues.

The increase in capacity to three car DLR services also being completed in 2010 will continue to support the growth plans of London City Airport and the development of the Royal Docks using an environmentally friendly, successful and popular mode of transport.

Looking ahead

3.1 Development of key sites

3 Impacts: regenerationThis section considers the impact of the London City Airport extension on regeneration.

The development sites Carlsberg Tetley,

foreground far left, and Peruvian Wharf (7.9 ha),

right, south of DLR London City Airport extension.

Silvertown Quays and Minoco Wharf can also be

seen towards the top, right (29 January 2007).

Impacts on regeneration will be monitored by tracking the progress of 12 major developments adjacent to the DLR extension.

• Activity to move development forward has occurred on five of the 12 development sites during 2008. This has included construction activity (2-4 Pier Road), construction planning (Silvertown Quays), approval of planning applications (Minoco Wharf), planning agreement negotiation (Barrier Park East) and pre-application discussions (UNEX).

• At January 2009 four sites are expected to be developed within the next five years (by 2014) and together these would provide 8,500 residential units on the basis of current plans.

• Reflecting the serious downturn in the property market in 2008, much less development activity occurred on the tracked sites in Year Three and the timescales for the development of sites have generally increased. However land purchasing by developers has continued, the potential for a super-wharf is being investigated and options for a new river crossing to the Royal Docks, possibly at Silvertown, are being considered.

• Over Years 1-3, development has proceeded much more slowly than anticipated due to the long term temporary use of various sites for Olympic and other construction works, slow planning processes, limited market demand and, from the end of Year Two onwards, an unprecedented credit-driven property slump and global economic recession. As a result more than half the sites are unlikely to be developed for at least 5 to 6 years.

7.2.5 Holborn Station Conclusions

The operation of Holborn station is significantly constrained by

infrastructure that does not match current passenger demand

requirements or customer expectations. Whilst the station is

extremely busy, day to day management for the most part ensures

that access is achieved most of the time, however, there is no

available capacity to cater for a further increase in demand, and

crowding and regular disruptions are considered by many users to

be unacceptable.

A number of related capacity improvement projects will ease the

situation at Holborn over the short to medium term. In the longer

term (10-15 years) it is anticipated that, to safely manage

congestion, the station will become subject to increasingly frequent

and disruptive operational management. To avoid this, providing

the necessary capacity and access improvements at the station will

be technically challenging and will involve complex works on a

constrained urban site around a busy operational railway.

Because of the results described in this study and concerns about

how to achieve a fundable practical upgrade at Holborn, LU is

interested in pursuing any opportunities that arise through

partnership working. Such co-operation could also unlock

opportunities to integrate station improvements with larger

development strategies and could present new opportunities to

achieve major benefits at a reasonable cost.

The details of these forecasts are given in Appendix A, but an

illustration of the results is shown in Figure 6 and 7 below.

Fig 6 Growth Patterns at Holborn Station

Source: Graph based on material provided by TfL/LUL

Excludes interchange flows

With the growing success of the area, passenger numbers entering

and exiting Holborn Station have been growing steadily for a

number of years. There are severe practical and technical

constraints that make short term or affordable solutions very difficult

for LU to achieve. In addition to this, it has been assumed up to now

that the rail improvements to be delivered in the area over the next

few years (see below) would provide relief by releasing more

capacity at Holborn:

However, Fig. 6 shows growth since 2003 and illlustrates that

numbers will continue to grow up to the opening of Crossrail in

2018. At that date it is expected that Crossrail will provide some

temporary relief for the station, but the new forecasts show that this

relief is likely to be shortlived, and that growth will continue, and

before long will exceed pre- Crossrail figures. This means that short

term plans need to be made to manage this situation up to the

Crossrail opening date, as the station is already operating for much

of the time at or over its capacity. Failure to find a medium/long

term solution will mean that over time an increasing number of

trains will not stop at Holborn, as LUL operations will have to

manage the station to maintain passenger safety.

Figure 7 shows that overall growth between 2009 and 2026, even

with the relief provided by Crossrail, will be of the order of 19%.

Interchange growth is a relatively small part of this, with most of the

increase being in passengers arriving at the station in the AM peak.

The other major growth area is of passengers arriving in the

evening peak period – indicating a growth in the number of peak

and off peak leisure trips to the area

bjarne nørumbjarne nørum is originally from Denmark and holds a ma from Goldsmiths college in london. His obsession with words is used on a daily basis as a journalist and writer. in bjarne on banksy he reflects in an ironic statement on art and consumerism. like andy Warhol took a can of rather inferior campbell’s soup and catapulted it into high art, banksy is shaking his can to something more than just a graffiti tag. From a can you get anything from expensive foie gras to baked beans prompting the question of quality and cheapness in food and art.
