Action to denounce the homophobic attacks that are increasingly occurring in Spain.

Our obsession with time has been known for centuries. Time is measured, fractioned and standardized to synchronize humanity. Gadgets of all kinds have arisen to carry out this task. From the rudimentary sundial to the atomic pointer clock, through sand, rope and quartz.

The heights of obsession with time in our age have skyrocketed as if “wasting it” was almost a sin. Productivity rules, we must do more in less time and with the time saved we must do more. But social dictates command to do even more, we must dedicate time to leisure and share it in networks. We have reached such an extreme that not having time is a symbol of social status.
We run out of time and try to grasp it in a futile way, like a dictatorship of the hands of that clock to which we pay homage. We are slaves of our time.

El artículo 56.3 de la Constitución española dicta que “La persona del Rey es inviolable y no está sujeta a responsabilidad”. Este hecho hace que el principio básico de igualdad de toda democracia se vaya al traste.

Islamophobia is one of the main drivers of radicalisation in young Westerners of Muslim origin. The exclusion and stigmatization of this group in Western countries generates individuals vulnerable to the promises of an Islamic caliphate. This leads some to fight the holy war, becoming jihadists who will massacre, for the most part, other Muslims. Many of these young people go straight to their deaths in the line of duty.

Since its start in March 2011, the war in Syria has killed 400,000 people and displaced more than 11 million from their homes. According to figures from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the war has caused more than 5 million people to migrate, one of the largest exoduses in recent history.

Meanwhile, the developed countries, led by the European Union, far from finding a solution to the conflict, are investing millions of euros in preventing the displaced from crossing their borders.

Every boat that comes ashore off the European coast, every group of displaced people looking for a safe place to live is an echo of a conflict that is still raging and in which all international laws on political asylum are being violated. The echoes from Syria.

We live in a society that censors the body as if it were illegal. A cultural burden that we carry with us from Judeo-Christian origins and that considers the body as something sinful.

This should make us rethink the role of the body in our society, the one from which we are totally dissociated. For the only collective image that remains of him is that of the idealized bodies that advertising shows us to sell their products and plunge into standardization.

(The objectification of the bodies) Sexual objectification takes place when the person is attributed to the condition of sexual object. Dissociating the sexual sexes and the physical beauty of the rest of the personality and existence as an individual. This phenomenon is transferred to all areas of a society addicted to consumption, new, using and throwing. Making human relationships a mere transaction.

It is incredible the impact of social networking on today’s society. We are currently carrying, virtually, all of humanity in our pocket. Without reaching this extreme, we are connected to hundreds of people 24/7, every day of the year. Without being able to be with ourselves: to think.

We are as Dante at the gates of hell. Is technology the end of our inner world?

Five hundred years before Christ was built the Via Salaria, a causeway that ran from the salt flats of the city of Ostia to Castrum Truentinum. Soldiers who took care of the road received part of the salary. This one was called Salarium Argentum, that is, salt money. In Greece, the exchange of salt for slaves, gave rise to the expression “not worth its salt”.

From the least to the most exorbitant of wages all have something to sell. It can be work, time, life or even soul. And all for a handful of salt.

The mystical powers of Priapus, God of fertility in ancient Greece, have been overwhelmed. As an ancient ceremony, the fertility that emanates from his entrails elevated the level of world population to an extreme not yet seen until this moment.

The exponential growth of the human population can only be understood thanks to the intensive farming that has been developing since the last century. But with more than 7,000 million inhabitants, our planet seems to suffer the effects of uncontrolled plague.

We all have opinions on everything. Each have their own speeches, some more correct than others. So each to their own mental jerk offs.

Fuckin’ Discourse is a pornographic satire that parodies the empty speeches which we commonly call talk for talks sake.

Whereas recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family is the foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world. UDHR PREAMBLE

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights is being systematically cut, article by article. From the institutions that are supposed to watch over it, whether by action or omission. All that remains is a romantic postwar between the lines because not even have a legal. But serves as inspiration for the various treaties ratified, in varying proportions, of the different nations.

Not only it is worrying that these rights are violating in developing countries, but also infringed in developed world. The crisis is always a good idea to cut. Socioeconomic differences testify. Human rights are always respected as long as there is money to pay them.

From all fronts we receive inputs, opinions and sentences of what we can do and what we can’t do. This constant denial makes us easy prey of discouragement and we end up internalizing our inabilities. But what if we were able to persist in our attempts and say no to no?

Anatomía del cerdo (Anatomy of the pig) is a figurative research about meat production. At the same time it proposes to human being like a piece of meat that can be produced and consumed.

The world always was characterized by differences between North and South, being the last poor countries. In a Europe without borders an imaginary line is drawn with a pencil called GDP, the EUROFRONTERA (Euroborder).

Young Europeans of South are provided of education by their own countries to enter in job market. But with a weakened and precarious job market young people are forced to emigrate, as their grandparents did decades ago. Difference is that these youth are fully qualified and maybe they do the same works as immigrants a century ago. Precarious jobs, at this way, Europe exports cheap labor from South to North.

In any case, if they are unable to find employment future laws will limit their stay. So, from one side to other, young Europeans are doomed to precariousness, to forced mobility and in the worst case to social exclusion.

Every system requires a set of established basis that supports it and prevents its collapse. Definitely the socioeconomic system that shelters humans is not exempt from these rules.

For proper operation it requires to program terminals/individuals with the basic notions of operation. Social rules and religion are just some, since any stimulus received from the outside is assimilated as their own.

This work is intended as a digital allegory (in pure 21th century’s style) of how The System inserts in us the basic guideline for its own perpetuation. The same individuals defend the System’s basis, their System.

Religion constitutes an anachronism in a society that considers itself scientifically and socially advanced. Myths and legends that form the scriptures contradict all scientific literature and nowadays’ knowledge.

Religion removes critical thinking, letting people believe fervently in imaginary worlds.

What sense has in our society the continuity of religion? Is it not possible to live a full spiritual life but with a more realistic vision?

Faith transforms itself into a dogma that turns us into docile and manageable people, joining a herd that unconditionally obeys and pleases its pastor.

Repeat like lambs the empty doctrine even if it hurts! Amen.

Power needs an ally to perpetuate itself. From Royal Guard until modern police of today, they always had been to service of power.

Gandhi, Mandela, Luther King, and many other anonymous people were restrained by police. People who fights by civil rights and justice was beaten, shot, gassed, jailed, badly wounded even dead.

Police is a way of repression to the people by their representatives. But power is not only politicians, there is many others interests upper, Capitalism commands. When political persuasion is not enough they need to use force, and many times they used Disproportionate Force.
