Are You a Slave to Fashion?

Journal Entry: Tue Jul 6, 2004, 1:13 PM
Every cultural and economic change produces the same fundamental fear: that in the unknown future, there will be no place for people like me, or for the things I value.

"The fashionistas dont write books you can refute. They dont quote Rousseau. But if their world becomes the whole world, pretty soon we'll all be changing scarves and looks and personalities every six months in desperate competition for attention and cool. The trivial will crowd out the eternal. We will all have to be cool. We will all have to fit in. No one will have to think."

We know the world through our senses and despite our many protests to the contrary, through our senses we imbue our world with value.

We can let style consume us or we can enjoy the age of look and feel, using surfaces to add pleasure and meaning to the substance

Hey, thanks for the add. I see you're also from Sagnasty, MI.

I'm working on a few different video projects and will need an artist or two in the near future so maybe I'll contact you then.

Ever work on websites?

hehe thanks for the watch and the comment!
i was an apprentice before in a good studio but!
i got totally buttfucked so im looking for another place, maybe here or out of the country
i dont regret taking that place because it had a good rep but i regret ever becoming friends with the owners : ) they were truely buttfuckers royale
good luck in the future if you still wish to become a tattooist! but beware of the snakes in the grass and dont let anyone use your designs without paying for them (mistake no. 1)!
