Nevertheless, there are other factorsinfluencing the development o f murals, including socioculture, politics and economics, as well as globaldevelopment: lifestyle and the globalisation o f culture. The project o f Apotik Komik (Mural Kota, 2002)marked the beginning o f murals. As a result, murals spread sporadically throughout Jogja and even reachedremote corners o f the city. A new moniker is even attached to jogja as the City o f Murals.'The term "mural" (especially amongst the people o f Jogja) becomes a common word used to addressevery drawing and painting on most ivalls across the city.
