wow machine

take issue against the "wow machine"

one of the impacts of the collapse on allegiance is intensificationism,
or bulging amplification - a peculiarly human trope,
the rarefied distinction between development and temptation is real

sensual crevices in happy colours,
using glitzy materials or fetishistic techniques are pleasant obsessions,
it’s all about fruit stickers and materials that decay on their own

thinking time - lots of it - should be a part of a
fanatical’s practice, with so many imps and
so many demands, it is like being on a conveyor belt

it's a guilty pleasure
poking a hole in the rosy, fleshy tissue with an naughty remark,
grace and candid insights into human nature were the cause

on a hot New York evening,
the puncture left a several-inch voluptuous tear
what happened in New York didn't stay in New York,
as the catastrophe was reported in a New York Post gossip column,
complete with fictional errors,
soon, discrepancies and a nasty rumour
showed up on the Internet, in print and on global TV and radio

the speculative life of risks and gambles makes the
world more dangerous for everyone
no cynicism is needed to assume that one purpose of
the display is to publicly demonstrate that
repairs have not been done and it’s having serious effects
on prudent rituals
