We Want To Live - UK Rebellion 2020
This is the first day of the 10 days protest rebellion across UK.
The Red Rebel Brigade is an international performance artivist troupe dedicated to illuminating the global environmental crisis and supporting groups and organisations fighting to save humanity and all species from mass extinction.
Red Rebel Brigade symbolises the common blood we share with all species,
That unifies us and makes us one.
As such we move as one, act as one and more importantly feel as one.
We are unity and we empathise with our surroundings, we are forgiving
We are sympathetic and humble, compassionate and understanding,
We divert, distract, delight and inspire the people who watch us,
We illuminate the magic realm beneath the surface of all things and we invite people to enter in, we make a bubble and calm the storm, we are peace in the midst of war.
We are who the people have forgotten to be!

The XR-10 is a utility helicopter in service across Ayascara's armed forces. The helicopter uses two intermeshing, counterrotating rotors, powered by twin nacelle-mounted engines and connected via external driveshafts. First introduced by Kettle Autogyro Corporation in 1947, the helicopter was not an immediate success. Kettle was already struggling when it built the first XR-10 prototype, and many naysayers predicted the complex control systems for the interlocking blades would fail. However, despite two nasty crashes and a painfully long development cycle, Kettle somehow kept scraping together enough funds to keep the program going. With traditional autogyros rapidly becoming obsolete, the board knew they needed a revolutionary success to stay in business. Kettle was days away from bankruptcy when AAAF finally declared them the winner of the contract, by default, since no other manufacturers had submitted entries.
In this photo, a helicopter pilot has gotten lost and landed on the salt flats to ask for directions from four local militiamen. Also, John Travolta is here, since we watched Grease last night and I got too into building this and forgot to sleep. The reference photos for this came from Noa, and the cockpit came from a tablescrap Errin threw together last week, but this was essentially a one-night build.
