I say its interesting b/c it brings up many ethical questions about robots and human interaction. Much in the same way as that Star Trek: The Next Generation episode with Data on trial.
So ends another 365. I kind of messed up the numbering AGAIN but I know this is the last one, as I always begin on Aug 1st. Its been an intense year and quite a weird one in many regards. I think this upcoming year will have the shutdown/lockdown again b/c people are being fucking dumn anout vaxxing and masks again. Im sick of it.
I think next 365 will just be random photos as I think Ive run the course on movies so far. I might return to it eventually but I need a change of creativity and want to try my hand at something different.
The chimps have sounded the alarm: they've spotted the keepers coming with the food throwover, and they are all taking up their positions. There are two separate food throwover spots, so the chimps are split up into 2 groups.
Some of the chimps, like shiba, are very consistent in sitting in the same spot each time. Others, like Kuma, vary their position, presumably depending on where they think they'll get a better throwover. Interestingly, when fumo was younger, kuma was much more consistent in coming over to this section near shiba. Now, kuma can be anywhere. And as for fumo ... i rarely see him. I think he's running round independently of kuma, maybe even at opposite food throwover spot to kuma, presumably scoring some food for himself. I really should go check it out ... but i tend to be as consistent as shiba in coming up this end when the food throwover chimp alarm is sounded :)
The chimps get pretty excited when food is coming, and that can lead to some interesting interactions ... as in this little snippet of video ...
The first interaction i see is Shiba (with sudi on her back) turned around to greet Lisa (who's got Liwali on her belly). Lisa is high status: it's always good to keep on good terms with her! And next comes Kamili to give Lisa a very elaborate greeting.
Over to the right, koko appears to give shiba a bit of a greeting as shiba passes by. Up the back, Lubutu (Lisa's son, the alpha male) and behind him Sembe (shiba's daughter) are approaching. (Or maybe that's sule, not sembe, behind lubutu ... and sembe approaches from the next level down) And Sasha has taken up a position in the back right hand corner. (Sasha will go and greet Lubutu as he gets closer to her).
Shiba sits down in "her" spot and looks up to see if the keeper has arrived up on the wall above yet. And Koko approaches Shiba, and shiba greets her. And Koko turns around and politely presents her bottom for examination. (I've heard a rumour that in an unofficial vote, Koko has won the award for having the worst looking bottom of all the girl chimps). And while shiba is checking out koko's swelling, koko reaches her hand back to pet sudi. Well! That had me intrigued. It's been truly surprising to see how Koko and Fumo have developed a special relationship. And now to see Koko start to display an interest in sudi as well ... absolutely fascinating!
Next, Lisa/Liwali arrive, and Lisa plonks herself down practically in shiba's lap. I wouldnt want someone crowding the spot i've chosen for the food throwover, but maybe in chimp terms Lisa is being nice to shiba. Shiba's daughter sembe is hovering over to the left, not coming any closer. On previous occasions, since sembe has lost her white tuft of bottom hair, i've seen Lisa make a point of chasing sembe off (i can imagine her saying to sembe "you, girlie, you get to the back of the line ... leave the prime spots to your betters!").
And finally Kamili turns up to give Liwali, Lisa's baby, a stroke or two. Kamili hasnt shown all that much interest in the baby chimps, and i suspect this interaction with Liwali is more of an attempt to curry favour with high status Lisa (oooh Lisa, what a cute baby you have!) than an actual interest in Liwali. But then i'm just guessing. It's all guesses! But more educated guesses these days :)
A barber (from the Latin barba, "beard") is a person whose occupation is mainly to cut, dress, groom, style and shave men's and boys' hair. A barber's place of work is known as a "barber shop" or a "barber's". Barber shops are also places of social interaction and public discourse. In some instances, barbershops are also public forums. They are the locations of open debates, voicing public concerns, and engaging citizens in discussions about contemporary issues. They were also influential in helping shape male identity.
In previous times, barbers (known as barber surgeons) also performed surgery and dentistry. With the development of safety razors and the decreasing prevalence of beards, in English-speaking cultures, most barbers now specialize in cutting men's scalp hair as opposed to facial hair.
TERMINOLOGY
In modern times, the term "barber" is used both as a professional title and to refer to hairdressers who specialize in men's hair. Historically, all hairdressers were considered barbers. In the 20th century, the profession of cosmetology branched off from barbering, and today hairdressers may be licensed as either barbers or cosmetologists. Barbers differ with respect to where they work, which services they are licensed to provide, and what name they use to refer to themselves. Part of this terminology difference depends on the regulations in a given location.
Different states in the US vary on their labor and licensing laws. For example, in Maryland, a cosmetologist cannot use a straight razor, strictly reserved for barbers. In contrast, in New Jersey both are regulated by the State Board of Cosmetology and there is no longer a legal difference in barbers and cosmetologists, as they are issued the same license and can practice both the art of straight razor shaving, colouring, other chemical work and haircutting if they choose.
In Australia, the official term for a barber is hairdresser; barber is only a popular title for men's hairdressers, although not as popular now as it was in the middle of the 20th century. Most would work in a hairdressing salon.
HISTORY
The barber's trade has a long history: razors have been found among relics of the Bronze Age (around 3500 BC) in Egypt. In ancient Egyptian culture, barbers were highly respected individuals. Priests and men of medicine are the earliest recorded examples of barbers. In some early tribes, a barber was one of the most important members, as it was believed that certain evil spirits could enter a person's body through their hair, and that cutting it was a way to drive them out. Due to their spiritual and religious beliefs, barbers even performed religious ceremonies, such as marriages and baptizing children. During these ceremonies, they would leave people's hair hanging down until after dancing; they would then cut the hair and tie it back tightly so that no evil spirits could enter and no good spirits could escape.
Men in Ancient Greece would have their beards, hair, and fingernails trimmed and styled by the κουρεύς (cureus), in an agora (market place) which also served as a social gathering for debates and gossip.
Barbering was introduced to Rome by the Greek colonies in Sicily in 296 BC, and barber shops quickly became very popular centres for daily news and gossip. A morning visit to the tonsor became a part of the daily routine, as important as the visit to the public baths, and a young man's first shave (tonsura) was considered an essential part of his coming of age ceremony.
A few Roman tonsores became wealthy and influential, running shops that were favourite public locations of high society; however, most were simple tradesmen, who owned small storefronts or worked in the streets for low prices.Starting from the Middle Ages, barbers often served as surgeons and dentists. In addition to haircutting, hairdressing, and shaving, barbers performed surgery, bloodletting and leeching, fire cupping, enemas, and the extraction of teeth; earning them the name "barber surgeons". The barber pole, featuring red and white spiraling stripes, symbolized different aspects of the craft. Barbers received higher pay than surgeons until surgeons were entered into British warships during naval wars. Some of the duties of the barber included neck manipulation, cleansing of ears and scalp, draining of boils, fistula and lancing of cysts with wicks.
19th CENTURY AND LATER
Barbershops were influential at the turn of the 19th century in helping to develop African American culture and economy. According to Trudier Harris, "In addition to its status as a gathering place, the black barbershop also functioned as a complicated and often contradictory microcosm of the larger world. It is an environment that can bolster egos and be supportive as well as a place where phony men can be destroyed, or at least highly shamed, from participation in verbal contests and other contests of skill. It is a retreat, a haven, an escape from nagging wives and the cares of the world. It is a place where men can be men. It is a place, in contrast to Gordone's bar, to be somebody."Late in the 19th century there were several noteworthy events in the barber profession that gave it an upward trend, and the effects are still carrying onward and upward. In 1893, A. B. Moler of Chicago, established a school for barbers. This was the first institution of its kind in the world, and its success was apparent from its very start. It stood for higher education in the ranks, and the parent school was rapidly followed by branches in nearly every principal city of the United States. In the beginning of barber schools, only the practical work of shaving, hair-cutting, facial treatments, etc., was taught as neither the public nor the profession were ready to accept scientific treatments of hair, skin and scalp. Not until about 1920 was much effort made to professionalize the work.
In the early 1900s an alternative word for barber, "chirotonsor", came into use in the USA.
The barber Sam Mature, whose interview with Studs Terkel was published in Terkel's 1974 book Working, says "A man used to get a haircut every couple weeks. Now he waits a month or two, some of 'em even longer than that. A lot of people would get manicured and fixed up every week. Most of these people retired, moved away, or passed away. It's all on account of long hair. You take old-timers, they wanted to look neat, to be presentable. Now people don't seem to care too much."
Despite the economic recession in 2008, the barber shop industry has seen continued positive growth.
Training to be a barber is achieved through various means around the world. In the USA, barber training is carried out at "Barber Schools".
Cost—Many states require a barber license in order to practice barbering professionally. The cost of barber school varies from state to state, and also from metro area to metro area. Schools in larger metropolitan areas tend to cost more than those located in more rural towns. Brand names can also affect the cost of barber school. Most barber schools cost between $6,500 and $10,000 to complete. Because each state has different minimums for training hours, the length and cost of the program can vary accordingly. Some schools tuition includes supplies and textbooks, whereas others do not. Barber license exam fees typically range from $50 to $150.
Length—Most states require the same amount of training hours for barbers as they do for cosmetologists. The number of hours required ranges from 800 to 2,000 training hours, depending on the state's licensing requirements. Most programs can be completed in 15 months or fewer.
Curriculum—The barber school curriculum consists of hair cutting, coloring and styling for men's hair and women's short hair. Chemical processes such as bleaching, dyeing, lightening and relaxing hair may also be taught. All cosmetology disciplines learn safety and sanitation best practices. Barber students can expect to learn some elements of anatomy, physiology, bacteriology and some small elements of pharmacology. It also teaches facial hair techniques, including traditional and modern shaves. Generally barber programs touch on scalp massage and treatments. Advanced barber training may include custom shave designs. It is more common in barbering schools than other cosmetology disciplines to get some business and ethics education, since entrepreneurship is especially common in the barbering trade with many professionals choosing to open their own barbershops. All the skills learned in barber school will be tested at the board exams, which typically feature a written and practical exam.

Oil Painting “Interaction” – A Group Portraits
Painting portraits can be very challenging and rewarding – how to capture the spirits of the sitters, how to render the physiognomies and the postures faithfully yet with artists’s personal touches, how to connect the sitters to the viewers, and most importantly, to ensure the relevancy of painted portraits in the era of digital cameras and smartphones.
One of my best portraits was a group of young men, me in the middle and two college friends at the two sides of the canvas. We sat on stone benches, looking serious and somewhat despondent, and aimed our eyes away from another, into different directions. It was a moment of uncertainty, a private consultation in a group setting, a dialogue with oneself, and a congregation without exchanges. I titled it “Interaction”. My relatively broad brushstrokes rendered the bushes in the background a hallucinatory backdrop, and the deliberately bland facial features were economically outlined – a kind of abstraction.
I am quite proud of this work, as it captured the spirit of then Chinese collage students, who were facing very uncertain futures, in the age of political corruption and crackdown around the time of 1989 Tian’anmen (Tiananmen) Massacre and a very harsh economic future. I just posted a blog on my trip to Beijing during the time the martial law was about to be declared in Beijing and the ordeals my fellow students and I endured during the sit-in on Tian’anmen Square, which will explain more of the background story to this painting, a souvenir of my youth: 25 Years Later, Smell of Exhausted Tian’anmen “Warriors” Lingered.

Okay so this is completely unoriginal but honestly - you can tell they are so in love just how they interact. I did absolutely no 'hints' at what to do and they just went at it. Look at what we have going here, we have some very excellent Zoolander remakes, a Loreal hair commercial etc. etc.
We did this as we waited for the Stampede lights to come on - I think they got a bit of an audience going by the end of it
In the text of a moving body speaking, there is an incarnate language. A poetic image unites us with the world before the fall.
