maybe i dont really wanna know how your garden grows

i would find a way to live forever because i am terrified of dying. what if everything just goes black, but youre still conscious? just stuck in an eternity of black nothingness. that would be shit.

i would also create my own self sustaining island so i could live forever in peace without having to deal with people.

Ramstein do childrens album


If I had unlimited money, I would pay german metal band Ramstein to make a childrens album. They wouldn't change there sound or style, but they would sing about rainbows and unicorns. I think that it would be fascinating and entertaining. I would design the albums and go on tour with Ramstein. It would be entertainng to watch the band do balloon animals instead of pyrotechnics, and have a mosh pit for the little ones. All proceeds from the album of course would go to systic fibroses.

Short, Simple, To the point.

What would I do if I had an unlimited budget to do anything I wanted with a project?

I'd likely start to produce my own stop still animation film idea, and bring my revolving and buzzing ideas in my head to life. I'd hire a small crew and rent out studio space, possibly even get my on animation studio space, with all the necessary cameras and other equipment needed.

I'd hire people in every department to help me bring my idea to life, from script writers to puppeteers, anything that I'd need to create a visual masterpiece. The whole crew and I would have pizza parties, laser tag or paintball every week to have fun in-between work.

Question

is commiting fraud and slander an effective way to prove a point?

Inquiry...

I wonder how so many professional brains overlooked the Yes Men's antics, without even the blink of an eye.
Do you think that, after a certain point, anyone in any profession becomes less immersed in their own interests?
Perhaps yes, however those fresh or maybe just always attentive are the ones who should be listening. Personally, I think it's great that the younger generation of audiences picked up on what was wrong with the presentations. After all, the younger generation is going to be in charge of the globe's issues in the next few decades.
Do you think we just wait to see how bad problems can get before we try and fix them?

Preaching to the choir, maybe?

Is the Yes Men's approach to spread their message about environmental and economic issues effective? They did manage to get a very strong reaction from students, but do you think that they have been successful in swaying the minds of the corporate/upper class?

Quesrion

isn't there some truth to the golden suit? what if it really was implemented in the workplace, would it impact the workplace positively with greater efficiency? What is so bad about that Golden suit anyways, despite the fact that it looked outragious? I thought it was a brand idea.

question(s) inspired by yesmen

the yes men exposed the corrupting nature of large corporations in a humorous way, but how humorous can we be about a situation where the world seems to represent france before the french revolution? has anyone seen who killed the electric car?
how can we eliminate the abusive power of corporations without totally re-designing western society?

it's a really tough call to make considering globalization has both positive and negative effects.

My Question:

Would You, as an individual, be willing to give up some of the luxuries in your life (make less money, etc) so the wealth of the world would be more equally distributed?

The Question

We constantly get reminded how developed countries (UNITED STATES for the "Yes Men" movie purpose) play a big role in exploiting poor countries. As in the YES MEN, it was pointed out how developing countries are still in same conditions as they were many years ago and developed countries like USA are only progressing. Hence, I would like to know how you guys feel about United States exploiting the Developing countries?
Although its disgusting and kind of offensive(mostly the way they animated) isnt recycling all our resources including fecal matter good?

Immorel Ambiguity

Do you think that the employers and c.e.o.'s of the big corporations that the Yes Men visit realize that they are being mocked, or do they think that the Yes Men believe in what they are preaching?

What wing of the politics spectrum would you consider them to be? (I.E yes men)

Question- Jus'throwing it out there.

Do you think that ultimately poking fun and using a satirical approach to politics actually affects the inner workings of the establishment/ government? Considering it's all about power and money, how do you feel that the yesmen actually penetrate this seemingly impermeable structure of politics?

The Question:

I'm wondering if anyone thinks through seeing a few people change something so drastically through action, having fun with it, if it inspired anyone to do something different realizing that big change is possible through even the smallest of actions?

BLOG ASSIGNMENT 2!!

a photoshop creation of mine



these are a few panoramic type photos put together in adobe photoshop CS2 :(
taken at west edmonton mall where i was this summer

Explanations:

Once upon a time, in a creative land known as Twizzeeopia, there lived a small black fly named Static Frankinscence.

Static decided on a bright and sunny Monday morning that he would meet up with his Bar Fly buddies for a nice cup of coffee at the Lucky Lucs Cafe to heal their hangovers. Poor little Static drank too much, so he felt like he had Pneumonia with the nauseating feeling on top of that. Feeling stressed out he flew endless meters towards the little Cafe, and stopped to buy a pack of cigarettes.

Exiting the gas station with his purchase, he scanned around to notice the Killer Bees, a gang that was the toughest of the tough in town. The reactions of the Killer Bees when they noticed Static was like an electric storm, for Static still owed a couple of them money.

Static flew as fast as his wings could carry him to the cafe, as the group followed him like a blaze of firing meteors plummeting to their target through an unforeseen force of speed.

When Static barged into the cafe, his Bar Fly Buddies brains were slow to react, confused at the sudden commotion happening around them as Static was thrown across tables into the wall.

The Killer Bees were focused on revenge, surrounding poor Static as he said with one last breath, "I wish you would all go away and stop bothering me!"

That was when Chicken Little ran screaming the sky was falling, and with his feet, squashed the trash that contained the little cafe, killing them all.

Static has learned a lesson that if you do not pay the prices you promised to, and blame others for giving you a hard time, you end up creating a theoretical hypocrisy and karma gets you.

The End!

Hello~


Here is a picture of some pretty cake.

This May be a stretch but hear me out here...




Okay so. I googled Barfly and the first thing that came up was a clip of Micky Rourke in the movie Barfly. Now, I have not even watched this trailer or seen the movie or whatever, but you know... Anyways, I'm connecting Barfly and Brainscan. Now this is a stretch, but...is it even possible to scan Micky Rourke's brain, can a scan actually get through that face of his?

i watch a lot of movies, animated and live-action, or a combination such as cloverfield!

Lucky Luke - Coffee, Cigarettes, Black Flies, Reations, and maybe a little theoretic hypocrisies
