more than words can say.. serious play
I love a little social subversion if it helps to tease life back into our being. Reviving the numbness set in by constant busyness, the thrusted assault of advertising or frustrated impotence as we’re bludgeoned with increasing horrifying news we can do nothing about.
Progressive complexity and ever more wonderous tools and toys avalanche towards us at an acceleration unprecedented >>
which is why when really simple human moments happen, they are all the more precious and sweet.
Nothing complicated, just ordinary things that remind us to breathe in.. look up and smile, or laugh uproariously with mates or play on the beach with a wiggly puppy.
As deep as our affinity for tech can run, stepping out from behind the screens is imperative or we’ll all start succumbing to the singularity polarity insanity (this is a note to self BTW who happens to be far to entranced by the prospect of transhumanism and AI)
So while you’re still behind your screen, I recommend a little inspiration (if you haven’t seen it.. it’s a gift to your hassled heart, so just bloody well watch it!)
PS. taking this onto the hard-core city streets may be a little more than heads can cope with though so be gentle.
* body language at it’s best – the simple sign-language ” I love you”
the free hugs campaign is great! we tried it out here in Grahamstown and people loved it but i dont know if there would be the same reception is jozi or cape-town. we could try…hope you are well!
Sigh,.. THAT was fun man,.. FreeHugs,.. LoL,.. :’-)
Should work In Jozi,.. lots of really kool supressed peeps here,..
you cant judge this odd spottish at face value,..
we dont have a mountain to help keep our spirits up,..
;-)
((((hugs-))))
I dare you to come up with one for Jozi & film it for us Mark1.. I KNOW you’re not only of the creative bent, but have a very healthy dose of subversion infused into your veins!
Got some ideas if you keen
Brilliant Carly.. but actually, knowing G’town that’s not REALLY surprising.. there may be many a town claiming friendliness, but in my experiance not one comes close to your town for big warm rowdy welcomes.
Though the fact that very few of its citizens are ever sober at the same time, could account for some of that :-P
