Artist description
excerpt from the book of skilled machinists and microwave conductors:most citizens fear only the locusts nowadays. the average worker will go about his day unfazed until the black alarm lite begins to flash, which is a rare occurrence (thank god). the aluminum mills are closing down more and more each day. soon the bosses will be penny-less and much happier. the silent treatment works well when trying to make important decisions with one's spouse or loved one. these are the days of euphoric gradual entombement. gorillas in cages rejoice (the day of reckoning is coming soon). cyclones are a sign of human fragility, they multiply exponentially. plastic is the most economical replacement (except asbestos) for the ever decreasing plant-life. the expansion of scientific knowledge has come to a screeching hault. the parties all joined forces and destroyed the captial, shoe-horning their way into power. congress is replaced by robotic assassins, draped in green sashes. the bosses smile as they smack each other on the backs and slide paper between fingers. the rails are dying more each day. the lovers find solace only in each others cold cheek-bones. only the naked dare suckle at the teat of society. only the un-annointed dare preach to the congregated. the boiling point of water has scientifically been raised to 435 degrees fahrenheit while the freezing point has been lowered to negative 115 degrees fahrenheit. some philosophers believe that god is still alive but it can only survive at -1 degree kelvin. fingers in the dirt, eyes to the sky, the proletariot try (but fail) to comprehend the true nature of sobriety. the sweet taste of falsified sunlight is the most popular soft-drink (beating out the poorly re-searched aquanated oil synthate) and is available at wholesale prices. the ancient buildings rumble with talk of divorce and treason (who is to stop them? you or i?). children have a pleasant outlook on life. there is a furnace deep below the major cities that no one has ever read/heard about, yet its fire is always stoked. eyelashes are the hottest commodity on the black market today; yesterday it was undershirts, tomorrow it will be a side of venison, glass handcuffs or children's novellas. diets are easy to stick with if one has a proper instructor. the red telephone on his desk rings ostensibly every day at 3:17 (P.M.). trading cards of smoke stacks are highly collectable but fail to fetch high prices at most conventions. white grape juice is found to be the best natural fuel the nation has ever discovered. as doctors stretch new, green, rubber gloves over their hands, their mechanical patients breathe a bit easier; moments later a sigh and a squeal ring out in the night. three men in whitish-black suits meet quietly in a dead memorial (in a silenced city) to discuss a coup that only the lowest and highest will feel. handshakes have secret meanings, practice discretion when using them. orange is the true color of the sky, the lie is in the name. the factories grow quieter everyday. these past years have been important for the hammer-smiths, years of unperceived gain. inanimate objects can develop the ability think if allowed to rest for long enough periods of time. glass in eyes. fists in balls. the youth are happy in discontent.we are not the ones you wanted, but we will pose for you anyway. |
