Thought of the day: Why do people that get beat up say, " I got my ass kicked?" Doesn't it make more sense to say "I got my face kicked"

The displacement of psychic energy is a salient characteristic of the primary process, which governs the system of the unconsciousness. As a virtually objective correlative to this idea of the free displacement of psychic energies, the intense physicality of Cecily Brown’s paintings can be seen as emblematic of the exhibition’s theme. In this world of fragmented vitality, built of interleaving brushstrokes, Brown reserves an interior space for extravagance in opposition to repressive force. Sergej Jensen’s, Untitled (Bad Dreams), uses a similar density of layered figuration, only to reveal the dreamwork’s critical play in the substitution of a carpet fragment for the painter’s craft.
Wilhelm Sasnal, Thilo Heinzmann, and Eberhard Havekost all engage the inherent tensions between masking and revealing form as subject. Heinzman’s Heinze appropriates the naked form of the classic haystack armature as a standing sculpture, its spiked arms recalling the inherent dangers of support systems. Sasnal’s painting of strobe lights characteristically withholds in his search for a meaningful subject to paint. The surface of Havekost’s Minus 2 Meter 2, is unheimlich in its luxuriant depiction of a folded blanket that is also a veiled and masked surface.
In works by Charline von Heyl, Tom Burr, and Jacqueline Humphries, the specter of physicality is evoked through subtle reference to constraint, loss, and desire. Von Heyl, in the very title of her painting Idolores, achieves a Verschiebung that resounds throughout the formal dislocations of the object. Suggestions of confinement and loss echo through Burr’s triptych of pinned t-shirts.
If catastrophe and repressed passion operate in a space between the silence of disavowal and the trickery of disguise, they share with certain profound currents in contemporary art an abstraction of representation and an elision of mimetic didacticism. The German word “Verschiebungsersatz” conveys this sense of displacement—a postponement in time, a dislocation in space—with respect to the formation of a substitute.
(Verschiebung means displacement; ersatz, substitute.) Yoked together, the two sides of this term portray the often unstated value of works of art during times of instability by bringing expression to meanings and experiences that are not yet possible to state in more conventional language. As an exhibition, “Verschiebungsersatz” brings together a group of artists whose work transvalues those elements of psychic life which are otherwise prohibited expression. These artists find ways to introduce the work of art into the realm of primary processes associated with the unconscious and to elide the bar of censorship.

Do you want to swim like a dolphin?
Do you love Dolphins?
check the updates of "the Cove" in FB about dolphin slaughtering in my country, Japan. It's disturbing, but imporatant things to know.
thank to Renee for sharing this "cool gear" video in Fb.
This is another mind blowing piece of gear that I needed to post. As it says, "Flying Dolphin Water Jet Pack"
I am updating this post at 1/13/2012 now.
There are at least 2 companies already developed similer water jet pack products. I've seen the you tube video in Dec. 2011 the one built by water sports enthusiast Franky Zapata, from Marseille, France.
And this year, I found the higher end of jetpack, built by German company called MS watersports.
They are so great that not only will you be able to swim like a dolphin, but also you'll be flying like Astro Boy!!
This is dream gear for someone who's been wanting to swim and jump like a dolphin. you can watch the promotion videos and compare the products.

Kim Jong-il
North Korea’s neighbours and the United States were on high alert Monday after the death of leader Kim Jong-il plunged one of the world’s most heavily militarised regions into fresh uncertainty.
China and Russia offered condolences and support for their ally nation’s new leaders, while Western states expressed hope that a change in leadership could ease North Korea out of decades of extreme isolation and better the lives of its long suffering people.
Kim suffered a heart attack while travelling on a train, North Korean state media said, setting up the autocratic, well-armed and nuclear-ambitious state for only its second leadership change since the Korean war ended in an uneasy truce in 1953.
Many experts have warned that a transition could lead to a period of instability. In a reminder of the permanent volatility on the divided peninsula, South Korean media reported that the North test fired a short-range missile off its eastern coast.
The North’s biggest ally, China, expressed official grief over Kim’s sudden death and, in an important signal, threw its weight behind his apparent successor, Kim Jung-un.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper urged North Korea to “close this sad chapter in its history” and called on it new leadership to promote “the well-being of its people and stability on the Korean peninsula.”
“Kim Jong-il will be remembered as the leader of a totalitarian regime who violated the basic rights of the North Korean people for nearly two decades,” Mr Harper said in a statement.
“We hope his passing brings positive change allowing the people of North Korea to emerge from six decades of isolation, oppression and misery. The regime’s reckless decisions have resulted in North Korea being an impoverished nation and a country isolated from the international community because of its dangerous nuclear proliferation and ballistic missile programs,” Mr Harper added.

3D STREET ART
Visual Artist, born in Pennsylvania
“ I’m a street painter – I draw things with chalk pastels on pavement; streets, plazas or sidewalks in urban public areas. I have a passion for manipulating 2D surfaces to reveal an unlikely alternative in 3D, typically designing and creating interactive images which invite the viewer to become part of my imagined world. As a result, communicating through this manner of direct participation has certainly become the keystone of my philosophy on being a visual artist.
Street painting :aka Madonnari (Italian) WIKIPEDIA
actually has been recorded throughout Europe since the 16th century. Tracy Lee Stum is a American Street Painter, who is recognized as one of the most talented 3D chalk artist/painter internationally. Her imagination world she creates are just STUNNING!!

I'm No Clone Bitches.
DID YOU KNOW: Marvel, as trying to increase sales, created a "Clone Story", in which Peter found out that he was a clone of the real Spider-Man and that the real Spidey was "Ben Reilly", a guy created partly for recapturing the old Spidey Spirit, which had partially changed during the decades.
The idea backfired, People got mad finding out that they had read about a fake, started boycotting and Marvel desperately had to change Pete back
as the Original Spidey. Now the clone story is for most fansthe most hated story of decades of Spider-writing.
Olek now must remain in London and will return to court on December 22, after which she may be able to speak more openly about the case.

What is the concept?
Don't you realize? The next time you see sky, it'll be over another town. The next time you take a test, it'll be in some other school. Our parents, they want the best of stuff for us. But right now, they got to do what's right for them. Because it's their time. Their time! Up there! Down here, it's our time. It's our time down here. That's all over the second we ride up Troy's bucket.

'YARN BOMBING'
thanks to 'Generation WTF' in fb for the resourcesharing of all sorts.
I love my town look like this!!!!
Yarn Bombing may last for years, they are considered non-permanent, and, unlike graffiti, can be easily removed if necessary. Nonetheless, the practice is still technically illegal, though it is not often prosecuted vigorously.
