Our culture industry is envied around the world. The people currently making all those 'cool' adverts, innovative designs, original music – the kinds of creative arts and theatre that makes the chattering classes feel so smug and excited – are mostly of the generation that was inspired by pirate radio, warehouse parties, street skating, graffiti: all those urban activities that are necessarily messy and unstructured and that allow playfulness and creative exploration room to flower and blossom.
