Re: The Culture, Music, Craft and Art Economy of Mars?

This topic was sitting without a reply ...  I found it while looking for a place to put a post about matching the interests and capabilities of humans with opportunities for work/jobs/service.  This topic will surely gain posts when folks are actually ON Mars, and they have time between work shifts to experiment with various art forms.

Louis would have had a field day with a topic like this one, because he posted so often in related topics.
