HUMAN AFTER YALL


In today’s Mainstream=Alt eInstallation, the blggr/webartist “The CRLS” attempts to connect with humanity by using a ‘lil guy’ from the hit film Electroma. In this tiny robot, we can all see a bit of ourselves’. We all have hopes, dreams, fears, wants, needs, and more questions than answers. Maybe there is more ‘yall‘ in humanity than we even realize.

    I’m confused. Using the same dude over and ove implies minimalism (which is artsy and alt-ish). However, it’s also fascist like a mainstreamer. In other words, I love this post but but I can’t tell if it adopting it into my personal brand would dilute the brand or not.

    @whoopi,

    Yeah I also laughed knowing that he either deleted each sentence to write over the picture after saving it or that he had a base picture he either copied repeatedly or imported repeatedly into an image editing program only to have to upload every picture to the web I just defecated too as well also!

    @Whoopdy doop, hahaha ya! even checked to see if the pictures were attached or all single pictures. When I found out that they weren’t attached and were actually single pictures I just started dying!!!

    @whoopi, What really sealed the deal for me 2 is that he had to think of all these things and they r all different yet all kinda the same b/c they are all like almost sentences meaning that crls had to learn some sort of generative grmmr and a lxxicon that can interact in a way 2 produce rly meaningful stuff that isn’t totally random but is enought to be funny and that means that crls had 2b a little kid once that was learning things. hhahahahahahhahha he must have looked like a funny looking kdi.

    crls, i read/view this and i think, ‘i wonder if the blggr/webartist CRLS would respect me if he rly knew me’. (that’s one sentence u prolly couldnt put on a pic, but ur the webartist, u know where the boundaries r.) obvs i feel insecure abt my personal brand. (ur webart has changed where the/my/our boundaries r.) should i admire ur brand from a safe distance & stop ‘using’ ur brand when i cmmnt? am i ‘more’ human when i emul8 u, because i respect u, or ‘more’ human when i ‘have my own ideas’? help (cc: ur FB Wall)
