In the times of being

My little last paragraph I wrote for the paper for Geopolitics of knowledge about myself in the times of being - in the global consumer society:

<Yesterday we made a little experiment in the city of Lyon where people rush in their daily routines, trapped in metros between billboard signs and noisy streets with sad eyes in their faces. We took a guitar and asked for a smile and while we walked we spread the momentous exchanges which made people smile, someone squeezed their lips, someone laughed – but in that little moment the world was funny little place full of different smiles united by the chords of guitar. It did not change the economy and did not save the ocean from oil spill, but it gave a notion of the good will living in people. This is how this experience can create new image, which could replace the images of the spectacle produced for us to consume. This is how I perceive the globalization – like a new platform to build new, creative and inspiring structures.>

Pictures taken by Giedre without asking people and meaning them no harm. Neither this experience, neither these pictures were planned to be used in the final paper, but it just happened to happen. Hope everyone is good about it :)
lots of musical love,
