			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If someone put Rorschach’s inkblot cards on the table in front of me, I could only think of gender blurring tendencies that wave with a flag of neutrality. (the flag would be white with Rorschach alike mask from Watchman in the middle)</p>
<p>Gender fluidity has appeared in a form of rebellion but has been widely spread in last couple of years establishing an army of Dr. Thompson’s dancers led by Burberry heads. </p>
<p>The card test with blots of ink was called off 10 years ago since it had quit being an ambiguous stimulus which would provide insight into patients’ thought processes. Burberry refused to reveal the main cause on the issue. And no one even knew that Burberry itself was involved in the case.</p>
<p>However, Rorschach&#8217;s work includes three determinants &#8211; form, color and movement &#8211; that contribute to establish the similarity between the inkblot and the subject&#8217;s content response on it.</p>
<p>“A good piece of clothing is a good piece of clothing no matter who was meant to wear it in the first place” – therefore, the form doesn’t matter. What does gender appropriate wearing mean anyway. Who made up the criteria. No such thing. Just like no love lost. </p>
<p>Speaking of the second determinant – color, white flag on the middle of a bridge is celebrating the victory of interchangeability. Perhaps unconsciously, but hipsters did a great job in bridging the gap between the sexes burring my Pretty Ballerinas with their Oxfords. Fair enough.  </p>
<p>The third determinant &#8211; movement &#8211; used to be considered more ambiguously, both in definition and interpretation. Urban Outfitters generation came up with a melting pot which use has slightly been shifting from counterculture to the mainstream course. The next card game might be Some Like It Hot. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Apparently, forbidden love is not a bygone. It seems like nowadays some of the Earth’s citizens have a letter of confirmation to practice their love, while some of them don’t. No official explanation for the case. The ruling Earth’s coalition is making up those laws and customs, according to which human-vampire relationships are banned. </p>
<p>As far as I know, tastes are not to be discussed. Human-vampire couples are, however, discussed and disgusted being observed as totally unacceptable ones. Even though I could find lots of those couples while walking down Belgrade streets on Halloween night&#8230; but then again, this is only the case on Octobers 31.</p>
<p>The entire case is much more complicated when compared to previous forbidden lovers struggle for their rights. If the fight occurred in this particular case, it would be a way too bloody one, lost by vampires in the very beginning of the match. <a href="http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/twilightseries.html">Twilight saga has already commenced a peaceful fight</a> and it&#8217;s going pretty good &#8212; girls are crazy about Robert Pattinson&#8217;s diamond skin. </p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qipaFDNxF4s&amp;feature=fvst">TV on the Radio continues with it in the shadow of the gallows of your family tree</a> where are hundred hearts or three / pumping blood to the roots of evil to keep them young. Those Brooklyn guys seem really touched by the case where parents vehemently opposed to their daughter&#8217;s dating a vampire. As women are usually more liberal, her mom was the only supporter of the love &#8212; They don’t know that we could be / Down where your cradle escaped the sea / And your raven haired Mama caught told you so.</p>
<p>The overall situation reminds me on pre-<a href="http://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2005/10/24/obituaries/20051025_PARKS_SLIDESHOW_1.html">Rosa-Parks</a> era when AfricanAmerican-white couples were unwelcome in the south of the US. </p>
<p>As for now, the mixed (human-vampire) couples can only dream of another’s Milky Way <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlvUepMa31o&amp;feature=fvst">Clair de Lune</a>. Claude Debussy recalls rococo decorousness with a modern cynicism and puzzlement of the late 19th century when he composed the suite. This shows us when the issue dates back.  It’s echoing moonlight onto the blue nightmare of your heart.</p>
<p>Vampire Weekend is in charge for spreading the positive vampire vibe thru their indie-poppy songs. The killer band from a killer city (NYC) will explain to the feckers.</p>
<p>Hopefully we’ll thus have a summer of love this winter. There will be a house not in New Orleans but in NYC, they’ll call the Rising Sun.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Houses are to last. Hence, there is a general belief that they should be made of brick, stone, wood, paint, Lego, plasticine. Those made of cards are, thus, unstable and non-persistent ones. </p>
<p>Unlike the above, I tend to believe that House of Cards is the longest lasting one being a nus product of our thoughts which we cannot get rid of. Descartes came to the knowledge that I exists due to ability to detect its own thoughts.</p>
<p>What House of Cards represents is more of a dream/reality dance with a tendency to turn into daydream in a Selma Ježková Dancer in the Dark manner.</p>
<p>I used to believe in Freud’s Interpretation of Dreams as a valid approach in unveiling our subconsciousness during the sleep. If I have to admit, I never really got the part that people tend to dream the desirable order of things and facts. Furthermore, I’m lazy to dig into yesterday’s moments’ analysis in order to figure out Freud’s recycling process of yesterday subconsciousness related details which construct the dream.</p>
<p>My House of Cards stands apart of those real dreams. It has a particular building timing – when I am awaken but still want to keep on sleeping even though it’s impossible. The main distinction between real and house of cards dreams lies in fact that Myself can partially control house of cards ones while it has zero influence on real dreams. </p>
<p>The house, thus, represents my own so called life sitcom where almost everything is going on my own until one of the reality cruelties destroys it. I am picking characters and deciding what they are going to say and why, along with creating the weirdest situations they all have to deal with. It’s a quite enjoyable and never boring repeated action. There is an immeasurable pleasure in having even limited control over the dream no matter what is happening in it. </p>
<p>Morning After the Wreck is what follows. I can feel Turner’s pain but there is also a light that never goes out. Cause the House of Cards is breaking the waves and lasts forever. So I once again refuse to accept Thom Yorke’s ultimatum when saying “Forget about your house of cards / and I’ll do mine”.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Despite facts, stars consist of loveable material named happiness which makes them shine 24/7. </p>
<p>Humans belong to group of les miserbles. Basically, les miserables tend to admire untouchable things which they don’t have and/or might never be able to have. Being situated on the long distance sky, stars are even more shinny. </p>
<p>Humans who do not practice beauty sleep might catch eventual falling stardust and become shinny happy people. And sing &#8211; shine on &#8211; Safety pins holding up the things / That make you mine / About your hair, you needn&#8217;t care / You look beautiful all the time.</p>
<p>In order to realize an ideal unitedness, Shinny happy people have used stars to represent states making them irresistible for human mind. Simply irresistible. Also, the stars are believed to last. Last forever. Land of the brave and home of the free thus represents extraterrestrial implementation of goddess star memory on the earth, which is only to be admired. Stars capital is easily reachable with Mulholland drive. </p>
<p>Team of flag tailors and designers has combined the shinny states on a blue surface. Since Jasper Jones was a night owl, he has got some stardust inputs. After it, he was becoming more and more fascinated by the state stars so that he couldn’t resist making homage to the flag on almost every single piece. </p>
<p>While some shinny happy people were fighting for their rights in star wars, the others got stuck in a fairytale. The stone collides with a star, which falls to Earth.</p>
<p>Volatile supernova will threaten the galaxy in 2387 and heads of the Enterprise, Spock and Kirk, will come to a forefront. </p>
<p>Star trek crew will become true galaxy guard unless Jack Nicholson appears with a knife from the Kubrick’s Shining scene. In that case, Woody Allen’s stardust memories are the only to remain. But there&#8217;s no time to cry / Happy happy / Put it in your heart / Where tomorrow shines / Gold and silver shine.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Regardless of place and time, it just appears as a common rule that people spontaneously leave the theater before the official ending of the movie. As for them, a switchboard is not part of the movie itself. Even watching the movie at home does not include watching the switchboard in the end.</p>
<p>The whole is different from its united parts. It is not a simple sum of its pieces but a totality itself. Gestaltism is based on this holistic brain operational principle. Spreading the principle of totality to other fields, I can only conclude that there’s no separated observation – what would be a book without covers, a painting without frame, a music composition without G clef, a play without final bow. It’s simply not possible to observe part of an art piece separately. Where did the majority that doesn’t share my view get this idea in the first place? </p>
<p>I’d blame it on speed and acceleration. Among fast and furious food, travel arrangements, books made of real book summaries, rooms-to-go, and other masticated not-for-here-but-ready-to-go things, there’s nothing like short version of movie on the market. Therefore, owners of this preoccupied helter-skelter and pell-mell planet should start producing instant movies with limited duration. No switchboard, of course. Final result of that production would be surprisingly hilarious. </p>
<p>I don’t even want to think of passive indifference of the movie crew creators as the eventual reason.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Venerators of icons aka iconophiles or iconolaters were crafty people opting not for God itself but only its simulation in the image called icon. They were, thus, spreading disbelief which led to a final formula:</p>
<p>God → Icon → Disappearance (not death) of God in every icon </p>
<p>If we transmitted this formula to a real life, we would get this:</p>
<p>Real life → Reality Show → Artificial Reality (because of our disappearance)</p>
<p>Explanation:<br />
In the world overstocked by sex in its multiple variations, from woman’s leg in detergent commercial to sublime messages in lovable movies made in Mickey Mouse enterprise, One is bored. Terrified with a new-come nothing-to-do + nothing-to-say condition, the One is slipping into a voyeurism. True pornography comes up. TV commences televisionation epoch, making a belligerent takeover of society. Thus, there’s a surprisingly unique voluntary servitude of bewitched victims. Reality show is our reality, there’s no other more real reality than the one in the show. Making and enjoying a travesty of life, One cuts all strings from the reality while jumping into the screen. In there, it looks like Thomas More’s Utopia. Or even better – like Truman show without dystopia moments in the end. </p>
<p>It’s amazing how Orwell’s 1984, along with Warhol’s Chelsea girls, has predestinated creating of fabricated world where everything is set up only to grab the audience. Speaking of communication theory, Katz and Lazarsfeld’s “two-step flow” concept of media influence is slightly simplified. One-step flow obtrudes itself as a dominant one.</p>
<p>Perceiving the world as a reality show is considered severe mental disease among some American psychiatrists. There were some cases when people were desperately trying to escape from the show (they believed their life is a show) and have been doing silly things in that purpose. Obviously, the psychiatrists are not aware yet that minority is made of few actors and the huge rest (along with them) consists of mostly unconscious participants in the same show.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>“Everything that characterizes his work – the advent of banality, the mechanized gestures &amp; images and especially his iconolatry – he turned all of that into an event of platitude. It’s him and nobody else” (Baudrillard). </p>
<p>Except Warhol. Andy was caught up in an important transitional moment and he knew exactly how to make a good hand of it. David Bowie wrote a song “Andy Warhol” in 1971 in order to explain that the whole world is a show. And everyone is welcome to take part in the show. </p>
<p>“Put a peephole in my brain / Two new pence to have a go / I’d like to be a gallery / Put you all inside my show”.</p>
<p>That’s how he had shown an immeasurable admiration to a great creator of the show concept – Andy Warhol. Andy disliked the song though. Bowie got a chance to become his friend when Andy saw him wearing some nice shoes. </p>
<p>But then again, when some from the music-show field sobered down, they immediately realized “Andy you’re a star / In nobody’s eyes but mine”. Head Automatica went even further in “I Shot Andy Warhol” bringing his figure to hilarious ironical heights – Hip Hip Hooray, You’re Our Saving Grace. Indeed. Andy kept art alive neatly implementing some parts of the reality into it. It is well known that art used to survive nourishing itself with out-of-reality new. As a result of various multiplications, art dies. Because there is too much art. Baudrillard was the first brave one who said it aloud. Art is dead. But Warhol lives. He doesn’t give a shit for the multiplications. Nowadays, he is in a <a href="http://travel.nytimes.com/2009/05/03/travel/03heads.html">pool</a>. Although Little Joy keeps on asking itself “How to Hang a Warhol”.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On my way back from Las Vegas it was more than logical to give a chance to the Killers’ new album &#8211; Day &amp; Age. And I have to admit that single Human has really grown on me.  And then I caught myself wondering are we human, or are we dancer.<br />
Various blogs and forums are desperately trying to figure out what Hunter S. Thompson actually meant by a disparaging comment he made in an (never identified which one) interview where he said that America is raising a generation of dancers. Summing up the assumptions I found on the web basic distinction between human and dancer looks like this:</p>
<p>-	Grammatical incorrectness &#8211; Dancer is in singular<br />
-	Denser might be instead of Dancer<br />
-	Exclusive disjunction – or – between Human and Dancer<br />
-	Dancer is slipping into pointless and overindulgent partying<br />
-	Dancer = puppet on strings = brainless<br />
-	Human – sexual. Dancer – asexual<br />
-	Human under control (not free). Dancer free. (Sartre’s concept of freedom)</p>
<p>Why do we (human &amp; dancer) have to find a sense even when/where it might not exist. If the great creator of Gonzo journalism really said what Brandon Flowers claims he did, why does it have to make sense. Why don’t we just leave something to be pointless itself and enjoys in its own absurdity. David Bowie concluded that we’re under pressure that burns a building down, splits a family in two, and puts people on streets. Maybe this is our last dance.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Reading Derrida’s “The Gift of Death” I ran into a “Practicing Death” expression. I assume it’s supposed to be known cause it hasn’t been explained anywhere. The first thing that pops up to my mind is Sid Vicious Live-fast-and-die-young concept. And that’s your decision. MGMT would suggest shooting some heroin, and fucking with the stars, along with cocaine and the elegant car. That’s why “Valerie” didn’t come over on scene and tears could dry on their own. In the world full of nothing it’s easy to slip away. </p>
<p>Rebel might have a cause. To leave a good corpse? According to Socrates, philosophical life was the art of practicing death. It would mean to define death as the separation of body and soul, when the soul becomes itself. Practicing death may lead to death itself. Therefore it’s reserved for fast and furious ones. Star boulevard of broken-dreams souls includes: Sid Vicious (21), Eddie Cochran (21), Buddy Holly (22), Aaliyah (22), Ian Curtis (23), Tupac Shakur (25), Janis Joplin (27), Kurt Cobain (27), Brian Jones (27), Jim Morrison (27), Jimi Hendrix (27), Marc Bolan (29), Jeff Buckley (30), Patsy Cline (30), Karen Carpenter (32), Keith Moon (32)… </p>
<p>There is also a light live-fast-and-die-young version (Kate Moss, Pete Doherty, Amy Winehouse…). Shakespeare wrote that when we are prepared for death, life is sweeter. But he didn’t write how should we practically start preparing for it and become practitioners of death. It might mean to let him take you down when he is going to strawberry fields. Brazilian girls are more for pussy-pussy-pussy marijuana. CSS sucks claims that music is their hot-hot sex. Shadow play par excellence. And that’s why Babyshambles are warning that you call yourself a killer but the only thing you’re killing is your time. Finally, the French philosopher Michel de Montaigne said that practicing death is to practice freedom. Everyone is free to find its way of practice. No matter how your concept of freedom looks like. </p>
<p>Enjoy the silence.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> </p>
<p>Everything around me is rotten. Not just tomatoes. Overall pathological misery leads straight to faith in superheroes. God bless Watchman! And The Coon! And Mysterion! Mephistopheles, burn Les Miserables! Dirt of the 20<sup>th</sup> century unveils a secret of conspiracy.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Following chronologically content of the media one can easily conclude how screen media have both reflected and shaped the public sphere. Gordon B. Arnold has divided the public sphere into two divisions: 1) true believers and 2) people with more tentative, casual interest in conspiracy. He goes even farther talking about existence of a conspiracy culture.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Although movies from a depression era (‘30s) and The World War II dealt with genre themes, they rarely had a conspiring undertone. However, postwar bipolar world was an ideal environment for growing fear and outshine of the conspiracy. It brought McCarthy as the most visible figure in the anticommunist battle and along with him notorious blacklist of actors, directors and other filmmakers accused to have certain communist leanings.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0041791/">The Red Menace</a> and <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0041260/">Conspirator</a> with young Liz Taylor, released in ‘49, directly mirrored a web of fear and paranoia in the reality – approaching the communist treat in a melodramatic form. Next sudden step was in <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0047542/">Suddenly</a> (1954) when Frank Sinatra as John Baron intends to assassinate the president of the U.S, what later Oliver Stone has precisely described in <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0448123/">J.F.K</a>. As a popular book, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056218/">The Manchurian Candidate</a> was more than unwelcomed as a movie script among <a href="http://www.unitedartists.com/">United Artists</a>. Use of the sophisticated techniques to make killing machines of American solders made <a href="http://www.unitedartists.com/">The United Artists</a> believe the movie would be pretty anti-American. But Frank Sinatra called president Kennedy to urge and very soon, the film was on underway. Portrayal of brain washing during Cuban missile crisis followed by the assassination of president Kennedy probably played a huge role in removing <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056218/">The Manchurian Candidate</a> from circulation in ’63.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In a newborn blurry combination of circumstances, Government of the U.S. is not obliged anymore to inform its citizens about an eventually important discovery as happened in Kubrick’s <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0062622/">2001: Space Odyssey</a>. Pakula’s Deep Throat has spoken out and solved one glitch. But everything continued to run its course. It all led to a secretive and malicious Government of 80s that cared little for its military personnel whom Rambo belonged to.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In 90s TV FOX introduces a new level of conspiracy in <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106179/">X-Files</a>. Two hyper capable FBI detectives are the only who can get beyond supernatural and extraterrestrial. Silent indications for global and interplanetary conspiracy are shifted to a new millennium. War on terrorism has pulled all strings focusing them on the events of September 11, 2001. We are still in a status quo conspiracy.</p>
