Welcome to Dystopia!
A man pulling his pants
down
A woman looking out over the
city skyline
No one is to blame, everything's the same
Always looking after
your brother, are you?
A ballet without dancing,
an opera without words,
a concert without audience,
as life is without you
Osaka, June 2004

”A search for something, digging deep into yourself, finding something at the bottom, saying ”kilroy was here”, disappointment, like being the first man on the moon, and being greeted welcome by a cafe-owner originally from Bumfuck, Indiana, who tells you that times have changed while you were travelling, forgotten by everyone and everything except the NASA control panel, with a computer re-assuring nothing is wrong, everything is ok, but what does a machine know? Or, is it the machine, or the ghost in the machine, who knows…?”
Francois Debauge ”Machine-made men” (1978)
We can not learn from one another
until we stop shouting at one another
until we speak quietly enough
so that our words can be heard
as well as our voices

Art, science, religion
keywords in our search for the holy grail
solving every mystery, leading every trail
to another goal, once the present is achieved
