Fatherland: Soccer Table [Italy-India-America]

A diorama about what would make world-sports ideas reflective of modern civilization deeds.

An homage to globalism (and soccer!), inspired loosely by Invictus.

The 'Fatherland' is a term to describe the table-hospitality of culture-exchange in this modern globalism-rhetoric world we live in, fueled by commerce/capitalism and cyber-networking offering 'fanzine' ideas about exposure to other customs/aesthetics, facilitated by social-media portals into social activities (e.g., Facebook, MySpace, Planet Hollywood). The 'Fatherland' is a term referring to the 'macro-world' governance paternal systems facilitating this 'table-hosting' of culture-exchange we take for granted in toys like, say, Facebook! It's a natural thing to overlook, but the splendor is not only commercial...but also flowering.

Amlan Satan (code-name: Storm-Shadow) is a guerrilla-intelligence operationalist with Interpol-relations intercepting blood-diamond highways (piracy) between British Columbia (North America) and Northern Ireland (United Kingdom). He's an 'officer' of this new commerce-driven capitalism-pensive global 'matrix' and is sometimes referred to in the underground (for his 'nerdist' approach to sociopolitical governance!) as 'Stick-Man' (for his uncanny ability to construct customs-branches in this time of great globalism frailty (e.g., 9/11).

STICK-MAN (Amlan Satan, Storm-Shadow): We use the metaphorical 'gun' to create the spray of capitalism targeting!

Stick-Man is the modern-day Citizen Kane, a real 'diplomat' of commerce-consciousness and capitalism-governance in this post-9/11 era in Western civilization! He's an Algerian-Indian (biracial) with ties to the underground groups FIRA/FOH and works with blood-diamond monitoring since graduating from Dartmouth with special sociology honors. Stick-Man (Amlan Satan) is an avid-fan of soccer, the symbolic world sport which reflects his social work(s) with coordinating capitalism...with the ergonomics/fitness of dollars.

STICK-MAN: After seeing the sports-terrorism film Munich, I'm compelled to make a 'soccer-table' for this Fatherland idea.

Stick-Man studied some fashion-design and studio-art in college and presented creative visions of Eastern-Indian saree women's clothing in the cyber-world for modern global ideas regarding the commercial viability of culture-exchange driven consumerism/media. This 'Fatherland' idea is built from the concept of networked design!

STICK-MAN: We're going to use cyber-soccer media from Italy to toast the 'macchiato' lens of Fatherland culture-stores!

We all know there's a rich tradition of ethnic/culture groups in the United States engaging with each other in dramatic ways and on multiple levels, such as during the Italian-Irish street-gang intersections during 1800s New York, an early portrait of what makes traffic-driven pluralism experience in Western civilization so darn dioramic.

STICK-MAN: I've been linked to blood-diamond raids of corrupt capitalism-baron bank safe-boxes in Chicago, a detector cap.

In fact, it's rumored by the Italian and Irish youth-soccer leagues in the Windy City that 'Stick-Man' used a water-gun theater prop (secretly filled with acid!) to swap Baron Goldfinger's blood-diamond from Sierra Leone with toy gems from Wal-Mart for a media-prompt compelling the 'evil baron' to make a press-statement on the weight of customs-clarifications in modern commerce-driven bank traffic/asset-securities. He's a real cop!

STICK-MAN: The Bank in the Windy City was toast; the real challenge is 'banking' Italian cyber-soccer media to investors.

With all the folklore surrounding the 'American experience' (capitalism, immigration, media, romance, etc.), how would Stick-Man coordinate/choreograph culture-commodities in this hypothetically modeled 'Fatherland' romance with media-imagery regarding socialized distancing, crime and order, and basic commercial vanities? It's all a 'dollar' theater, after all!

STICK-MAN: Fans of Italian national/club soccer in media-broadcasts reveal a certain modern global sentiment for fanfare!

Stick-Man's collected a ton of soccer media, games, and comics and even a special movie starring Pele (Brazil) featuring the canonical elegance and team-energy associated with the field-sport of soccer, a kick-ball game of two teams of athletes/players trying to score more goals against the opponent-defense than the opponent. These soccer comics/games help Stick-Man compose his globalism-minded 'cyber-blog' of what makes Italian soccer-media in Western civilization appealing to multiple cultures and buyers.

STICK-MAN: Italy's Serie A pro-club league is filled with media-rich outstanding modern teams (Juventus, Roma, Inter-Milan).

This new era of cyber-games and media-broadcasts makes it much more friendly/marketable to share the 'diadems' of culture-driven commodities and designs like Italian-style soccer-gameplay in video-games and reflect the idea of why world-sports/activities (e.g., soccer!) can re-present our modern interest in dance.

STICK-MAN: Many cyber-soccer video-game fans in the West will claim Italy's style of team-play is ideal for sports-dance.

So visit a quaint Italian bistro in New York this holiday-season and order a macchiato and read a cyber-story on your phone about Italian club-soccer news/play, and you just might discover 'Stick-Man' walking in to share in such modern dollars. This is really the 'Fatherland' experience --- the art of living.

STICK-MAN: The reason we find so many entertaining movies about sports is because it reminds us of basic dimension.

Will this 'Fatherland' rise or crumble under the weight of its own socialized pressures/distancing? Will Stick-Man succeed in using Italian cyber-soccer media to forward the modern idea of culture-exchange dances symbolizing commercial sanity? Will his Italy soccer project yield real dowries?
