15 Minutes of Fame #3

How to comport oneself in a celebrity fashion:

buy the right things

look the right way

don’t say anything controversial unless it serves a particular PR aim

don’t indulge a radical politic

maintain an aura of perfection, regardless of what a vile beast you are.

the promise of fame

self regulates the public

and we all want it so bad

and we’re almost there

we’re so close to our fates

so close

So long as all our content

strives for a banality

which challenges nothing

and says even less

we may just get there one day

“It is not that there are disparate values to be bridged in order to form a diverse and tolerant society. Instead, it is hankering after the ease of a society in which there is no necessity to form a core of values beyond the practical calculation of personal and social advantage.” 

 Advertising eases us, unchallenging spectacles constrict and deaden our dreams. Our inner callings towards outer manifestations of our deeply rooted purposes are nullified and expelled from the sanctimony of disinfected environments.

Dear Diary, . After look'n through a box here at home that has a bunch of old eyeglasses in it - out of the many in that box, I found two I felt fit my face well. . It's hot out, I'm dirty and I'm gonna clean up and take a moment to figure out which spectacles of the two I like best. . This pair? . If interested, check the other post to see the other pair of eyeglasses I found. . . . -----------------tags start here-------------------- . #manwithglasses #societyofthespectacle #mensweardaily #eyewear #vintage #vintageeyeglasses #vintageeyewear #desinger #youvegotthelook #jordache #look #intheyard #rummaging #oldglasses #moustache #mostache #styles #shapes #lens #types #guystuff #frames #personality #👓 #🤓 #🖕🏻 -----------------tags end here-------------------- https://www.instagram.com/p/BlXID-Ch_hA/?igshid=9xyohilkfqwl

Under the post-human context, we have never felt disembodiment more acutely- we are so absorbed by virtuality and information to the extend that “physically” has become more distant than ever... #artwharf #feuerbach #societyofthespectacle (at 上海民生现代美术馆Minsheng_Art_Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxFlg8wnBLQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1q7ire3km17gw

How can we honor the legacy of climate change deniers while they're still alive? Why, historical markers!

From our image-saturated consumer culture to right wing personalities going after each other on Twitter to a celebrity liberal talk show host announcing a possible run for president, we are truly surrounded by a “society of the spectacle.” Even Guy Debord would be astonished at how, 50 years after it was written, his book reads as if it were written for our time.
