I think this is such a genuine creation at its core and it teaches kids that you don't need a huge studio to create whatever is in their minds. Growing up watching movies and listening to music I always believed that you needed a huge studio with state of the art technology and a team of more than one to create good music but the pink van contradicts that idea. Although the people running it were given money on a grant to get it started, kids are able to participate in a free and one on one experience that will only heighten their creativity. It also allows them to believe that their ideas are worth exploring and producing. Overall I think that this little truck is an incredible invention and I hope lots of kids are able to experience the creativity that it's bringing to the world.
