Publicity & Capitalism

في المدن التي نعيش فيها، كل واحد منا يرى مئات من الصور الدعائية في كل يوم من حياتنا. أي نوع آخر من الصورة تواجهنا في كثير من الاحيان. في أي شكل آخر من أشكال المجتمع في التاريخ لم يكن هناك مثل هذا التركيز من الصور، ومثل هذه الكثافة من الرسائل البصرية. تابع

Publicity is the life of this culture - in so far as without publicity capitalism could not survive - and at the same time publicity is its dream

Capitalism survives by forcing the majority, whom it exploits, to define their own interests as narrowly as possible. This was once achieved by extensive deprivation. Today in the developed countries it is being achieved by imposing a false standard of what is and what is not desirable

The Pathans

The Way of the Pathans

Armed Pashtoon - K.C. Marrott
I sit sad in the valley
Listening to the river that says
Trespasser, trespasser, trespasser.
I stubbornly say, All the same
It’s still beautiful.
And I know that’s true
But I know also
Why it fails to recognise me

Tale Worlds
Ogniem i Mieczem 2 Total War With Fire and Sword 2
O God, lead us forth, poor captives,
From heavy bonds
From infidel faith
To the bright dawn
To quiet waters
To a gladsome land
To a Christian world
Hear, O God, our prayers
The prayers of the hapless
The prayers of poor captives

Conjoined Twins



The Double-bodied Man
postcard, 5.5 x 3.25 inches, circa 1920
photographer: unknown

Quite similar to Piramal was Jean Libbera, who displayed his parasitic twin, Jacques. Jean and Jacques were born in Rome in 1884 into a family of thirteen children — one of whom also had a parasitic twin but did not survive.

Libbera toured the United States for many years, earning a handsome living from his brother. He married and had four children, eventually retiring from the business and moving with his family back to Italy. Jean (and Jacques) passed away in 1936
