CRISIS

      

Sacred Sunny Sunday Identity Crisis of Moment.

 

 

Am I spam or am I for real, René Descartes says, “I exist therefore I am”. So much for deep moral and ethical challenges. Deciding whether a text is computer generated is no easy task. There are reputable philosophy departments, with international prizes, based on ideas of Nobel’s laureates, going back a few decades. Church and Turin ideas.

 

 

But the machine did not come about the day I unpacked my laptop at home. Much of the discourse on modernism and thus the inevitable escape into post modernity is about the sane, insane, same machine going back at least to Tempest.

 

 

The cavemen of Cueva de las Monedas, the worshipers at Stonehenge, Inca craftsmen of Tahuantinsuyo. All kept their communication art as a black art of much secrecy. It is only beyond the cave man , peasant man , hunter gathering man , that modernism and it universalizing becomes essential.

 

 

The urge to be universalized, is the same pulse that has machinated, via choices, fashion, media, politics, all with their own channels, sub cultures , one moments - despised, resisted, eccentric, and forced for the underground and next preached - by neon idols. Thus universalized.
