Ochra Spirohaiti's blog. O.S. is an Athens-based music band that has been actively participating in social issues and struggles for many years now. O.S., a component of the pan-hellenic "+τεχνία-" think-tank group, besides being creators of compositions which I consider of high poetic and musical value, have been expressing their thoughts in numerous writings and discussions on music, and art in general, mostly focusing on issues of [non]commercialization and management of one's creativity in the capitalist world.
