The tribes of Essenes who took hallucinogenic mushrooms - the Aegean tales of smoking cannabis - the Pharoahnic orders of priests who developed beer - the liquers of Monasteries - the spirits of the New World (bourbon, rum and coca-cola).
And the yields and crops of the Field of Cultural Production. As a resident goat, who lost a rifle and found the short-cut in Pan's Labyrinth video game - I navigate haphazardly, as someone on a ghost ship of shipwreck - newly fragmented by the whipping seas and the sensitivities to profiling.
Profiling - in the case of OJ Simpson I recall David Letterman made a joke about OJ's biography "From Zero to Hero to Shapiro" - Judge Shapiro of the US Courts. And humour comes at a death of an emotion, and in most cases from death itself - the ones that make it to the media.
No better thing than shoot-em-ups - dramatic or reported - all filters at all times.
I will keep the holster well buttoned.
Profiling - most decent human beings have been profiled, and probably not to their complete liking. The copyrighting of one's image can no longer be faithful today. That person though is a member of a community - does one apply the media filter to the person who one works with?
"Support the artist that supports you" - James Ryan winner of the Australian Jazz Bell Awards 2011 Cross-Disciplinary category.
Having worked in the music industry as a support professional - with CV in hand and having done things in other fields that if it equated their audience in terms of numbers - well,
"Support the professional that supports you" - AARP 2009
Of course, all within the budget of the artist - separate business from pleasure. And I put my professional buskers hat here. Audience development and show the professional some love - this one is not an artist by living but has the same povertous jacket and history of chemical brothers and sisters.
Further in terms of music - the notion of "accelerated culture" - taking antecedence from the creation of amphetamines and then the use of them in counter culture, rave culture and just culture in general - is a beautiful brimming cup and in what cupboard are they...we will find out. The few that I know that I have made disclosures to, but are not personal friends - well, they are the cellars, distributors of such notions.
