Segui il flusso e le pulsazioni diventeranno accelerazioni insostenibili, come se il cervello dovesse schizzare fuori dal cranio. E il mainstream diviene un'allegorica processione di finto pathos e vuoto compiacimento. La guerrilla è appena incominciata, imbraccia il tuo sesso e rendi succube il mondo con un sorriso a mezza bocca. Rumore metallico, clangore che urla e rimbomba e tuona come il temporale più scuro, alto nella testa. Niente schiavitù, solo coloro che, obbedienti, asseconderanno ridendo l'ascesa del tiranno, solo un'anonima fossa per chi non saprà chinare la testa. La rivoluzione è incominciata, un nuovo negriero tirato a lucido è ammantato di ideali fasulli, tutto il resto è forma di potere.

Reminds me of the kzin in Larry Niven's Known Space novels. I have no idea how a kzin came to be napping in my living room, but fortunately he was ok with cat food for supper.
"Upon a garden's perfum'd bed
With various gaudy colours spread,
Beneath the shelter of a ROSE
A BUTTERFLY had sought repose;
Faint, with the sultry beams of day,
Supine the beauteous insect lay.
A BEE, impatient to devour
The nectar sweets of ev'ry flow'r,
Returning to her golden store,
A weight of fragrant treasure bore;
With envious eye, she mark'd the shade,
Where the poor BUTTERFLY was laid,
And resting on the bending spray,
Thus murmur'd forth her drony lay:Â
"Thou empty thing, whose merit lies
In the vain boast of orient dies;
Whose glittering form the slightest breath
Robs of its gloss, and fades to death;
Who idly rov'st the summer day,
Flutt'ring a transient life away,
Unmindful of the chilling hour,
The nipping frost, the drenching show'r;
Who heedless of "to-morrow's fare,"
Mak'st present bliss thy only care;
Is it for THEE, the damask ROSE
With such transcendent lustre glows?
Is it for such a giddy thing
Nature unveils the blushing spring?
Hence, from thy lurking place, and know,
'Tis not for THEE her beauties glow."
The BUTTERFLY, with decent pride,
In gentle accents, thus reply'd:
"'Tis true, I flutter life away
In pastime, innocent and gay;
The SUN that decks the blushing spring
Gives lustre to my painted wing;
'Tis NATURE bids each colour vie,
With rainbow tints of varying die;
I boast no skill, no subtle pow'r
To steal the balm from ev'ry flow'r;
The ROSE, that only shelter'd ME,
Has pour'd a load of sweets on THEE;
Of merit we have both our share,
Heav'n gave thee ART, and made me FAIR;
And tho' thy cunning can despise
The humble worth of harmless flies;
Remember, envious, busy thing,
Thy honey'd form conceals a sting;
Enjoy thy garden, while I rove
The sunny hill, the woodbine grove,
And far remov'd from care and THEE,
Embrace my humble destiny;
While in some lone sequester'd bow'r,
I'll live content beyond thy pow'r;
For where ILL-NATURE holds her reign
TASTE, WORTH, and BEAUTY, plead in vain;
E'en GENIUS must to PRIDE submit
When ENVY wings the shaft of WIT."

Vigeland Sculpture Park, Oslo, Norway.
Bronze and granite sculptures by Norwegian artist Gustav Vigeland beautifully covered by early morning ice.
It's not throw-back-Thursday or anything. I just couldn't resist this old photo of The Bean devouring some good literature.

18/8 - Another inspired-by-Nolan's-creations based picture. It's about dreamers stuck in their own unraveled subconscious. However, safe to say this time I've failed to deliver the message I had buried in the picture because people has been saying this shows to much similarities to kpop stuff. And fyi, I'm a not a fan of that thing or whatever you call it. Okay back topic, this probably the most hardest editing I've done throughout my days as a photographer. If you conclude the shooting and the editing part, hm i think it almost took me 7 hours to complete everything but it was worth it, i guess. Maybe who knows one day I might doing movie promotional shots. Hopefully.
