Introduction
"5th element of Hiphop" is a companion site to a PhD project on hiphop and spirituality at the Faculty of Theology, University of Oslo, Norway. One purpose for this site is to offer basic knowledge of Hiphop culture to fellow seminarians as well as make the work of this project availabe to the general public. Here you can read about theculture and about some of the artists and movements that are part of hiphop or . I will publish texts related to the projects on this site and also offer a guide to some of the many hiphopresources, like books, magazines and dvd's. As I am deeply interested in the art of graffiti and murals, there are also a lot of pictures from New York,Norway and other places to be viewed. Finally, the links section will lead you to many useful internet-resources.
