Freestyle Friday

 

I realized that I sometimes can't stick to the schedule. I will try to post four articles per week and keep the chronology of gear first, then society issues, some law articles every now and then, Thursday photos of the last week, Friday is my gossip or freestyle day. This week I will also post a Biennale 2013 Special when I'm back in Berlin and have the time to post process, probably on Sunday when I'm sitting on the Nowkölln flea market selling clothes, there's always enough time to do a big blog post.

 

This picture is from the pavilion of the Italian-Latin American Institute, it's real spices, hope someone is going to use them afterwards ...

 

 

Another artwork out of many that caught my attention today is Michael Schmidt's work "Food", a large series of photographs documenting all aspects of food production in Europe from 2006-2010 and with it showing the eating habits of advanced industrial nations ... very "advanced" ...

 

 

And of course I was following the latest news via facebook and n-tv. What I read about the US goverment forcing secure email companies to close down their business is really exceeding my expectations regarding might and political influence. These methods are very comparable to those used in totalitarian countries the western world is so adjudging.

 

If all this wasn't about human rights I would say it reminds me of Kindergarten, where everything was allowed as long as teachers didn't see it, even the craziest things. Fortunately we people are in the role of teachers now, so please, let's not let all this go unchallenged. We need to stand up and explain to those kids that this part of the game is to be over now. There have been centuries before to establish a sound society and a lot of wars have been fought to bring democracy. It should be impossible to simply wipe away all this now as they see may fit ...

 

Let's unite and protest and vote for the right parties next month ...
