IDOLS OF COMMERCE

Fake idols of commerce and communication, driven by a few of my whispering words: BUY ME, I will make your life better, I will make everything alright. A bunch of lies bound in cheesy alliterations and puns: buy your life back and send this world deeper into its dying days. When the plastic piles up and the resources run out what will these words mean anymore? Just a sad script for an American dream long dead – a misguided voice without conscience. Yip, turn up your contrast, type away at your digital life, it`s easier than dealing with what`s really going on.

Screen your eyes from reality and click through to another existence because the current one is boring. From computer screen to cellphone screen to TV screen – SCREEN your life away because actually living is obviously too painful. Click to the next track, play, pause, rewind, forward, reply and copy them all in. The thing is, no amount of clicking is going to send you closer to happiness or away from that sick sense of false security.

Unplug, Log Off, Shut Down, cancel your credit cards and get the fuck out of town. Breathe the fresh air.
