Art
of Spam! Issue numb 20: "IMAGE!"
Is image everything, as many say? If
your only tool is a hammer, everything looks
like a nail. Likewise, if your only tool is
theory, everything looks like an application
(and validation) of your favorite theory.
If your only tool is eyesight, image is everything.
If your only tool is an image maker, everything
looks like an image or something you need
to make into an image.
Every
tool is a mirror of our needs. A hammer is
a nail- pounder because we need to pound nails.
And we need to pound nails because we need...,
etc.
If
your only tool is a mirror (of you and your
needs), everything you apply it to will look
like an image: your image of the world: your
image of you and your place in the world.
If your only tool is a mirror, everything
you apply it to will look like you and your
needs.
"Just
because you think your image is interesting
doesn't mean I do,"
The Adwoman warns
me.
