Our velocity

 
Jacques Demy. “La Baie des Anges”. 1963

“…Following blind
Covering eyes
What do they do?
What do they do?
So what if we care we're all fools who believe in that?
So what if we care we're all fools who believe in that?..”

“Is the “fear of being an individual”. Let’s face it: being an individual is a lot of hard work, and these days I’m unsure human beings are cut out for the job. Individuality has become about as much fun as dental flossing; no wonder it’s easier just to subcontract your identity to QAnon or Antifa. You may not get a million hits for your own Instagram post, but your newly adopted fringe group will get them on your behalf. It’s going to be easier to feel utterly alone and also part of a planetary movement”.

¿A dónde pretenden llegar todos aquellos que corren sin aliento? Esos grupos numerosos de gente desbocada ¿Qué intentan evitar? ¿Qué nuevo deseo mediatizado les puede sedar? ¿Acaso las sombras alargadas resultan más terribles que sus propios itinerarios?
Como si la misma velocidad les impidiese reconocer el inevitable acto de pensar y re-pensar la evidencia, la realidad del mundo real.
