KĂŒĂŸ mich! / Kiss Me!

Once upon a time, on a quiet summer's evening an old man was rowing an old boat across an ancient lake.
A little frog jumped up onto the end of the boat, and the frog said to the old man:
"Old man, if you kiss me, I will turn into a beautiful young princess and you can do whatever you want with me."
And the old man smiled at the frog and kept on rowing his old boat across the ancient lake.
And the frog said again:
"Old man, if you kiss me I will turn into a beautiful young princess and you can do whatever you want with me."
And the old man smiled and looked at the frog and carried on rowing his old boat across the ancient lake.

And there was a long silence while the guitar played.

Man in a Boat

The frog said to the old man: "Old man, why won't you kiss me?"
The old man looked at the frog and stopped rowing his old boat across the ancient lake, put his hands in the air and shrugged his shoulders and said: "At my age I'd rather have a talking frog."

For as long as I could remember, the image of everyone needed to be artistically questioned. Time was subjective to those of a constant, my reality isn’t that of what others perceive, outside of my own generics, the negativity or general empathy of a loved one. Whom we are today isn’t possible for the person of tomorrow, or our existing lives, we have retorted from. Ideology helps to retain my philosophy on ethics and other wisdom, creativity is best served with a subjective mind. Sincerity is the quest - to redefine my tomorrow. #coffee #art #manufacturing #mindful honesty is having the ability to be subjective or not. To be subjective.

Aujourd'hui j'ai lu dans une revue que les chiens, renards, rainettes et autres animaux avaient mutés génétiquement - car désormais ils se reproduisent, leur descendance ont une espérance de vie normale et pourtant ils vivent dans la zone d'exclusion de Tchernobyl - Tchernobyl c'était il y a 38 ans

Les chiens

Les chiens de Tchernobyl nous survivrons
Les chiens
On aura beau leur donner des coups de pieds
On pourra les frapper, les harceler
Les chiens nous survivrons
Les chiens

Les chiens de Tchernobyl ont mutés
Des scientifiques l'ont étudié
Les chiens
On pourra toujours les taper
les pousser, leur crier de choses, les tuer
Les chiens nous survivrons
Les chiens

J'ai eu un chien, le chien de mon pĂšre
Il Ă©tait gentil comme l'ours en peluche
Il avait des yeux doux
Il avait un joli poil
Je pense souvent Ă  notre chien
Les chiens nous survivrons
Les chiens.

Photographer Joseph Ford and knitter Nina Dodd have for the last several years worked on their collaborative project called Invisible Jumpers, in which Dodd would knit a garment that blends in with a chosen environment and then Ford would photograph the wearer.  The book was published in 2019 ... but the project continues adding animals, arists, musicians to the project.  As Ford explains:

"The locations have to be eye-catching but simple enough to be able to be knitted. They also have to be places that aren’t going to change too fast, as the knitting takes a few weeks...

Once I’ve found the location, I photograph someone standing where I would like the model to be in the final picture. I draw over this scouting photograph and annotate the picture with different colors and patterns so Nina can plan how to knit. Often there are 10 or 12 different shades of yarn in a single picture, and up to 24 balls of wool at any one time for the more complicated designs. The choice of yarn has varied according to the background."

Some companies use #video #surveillance and have it analyzed by #AI. This gives you automated reports on the #performance of your #employees. At least the performance that the AI can record. Of course, this creates the exact opposite of what AI should be. Instead of relieving the burden on people, they become the new #slaves of a surveillance #technology. A dystopian scenario straight out of an #Orwell novel.
