“cool, awesome, lovable, fresh, even meaningful”
we could say…
so, why don’t we?
an explanation attempt:
no picture can be groundbreaking today… as we all know that…
still, the media has its power to keep it all going…
like we were living in the past, on a safari or something in the 19th century.. or the 20th…
that is, some people don’t like what’s being presented? no problem! it was like
that during history, too…
so? what’s the difference? if you
don’t “like” it, it’s art… if you “like” it, it is art, too…
it is up to the media what they present…
and it will be art right in the moment they present it…
cool, awesome, lovable, fresh, even meaningful
we could say…
so, why don’t we?
Ha! Awesome.
