look who's watching!

* panopticons project:

thomas voor 't hekke and bas van oerle, working together by the name of "helden" placed lots of camera birds -city birds with cameras instead of heads- throughout the city centre of utrecht to address the fact that we are constantly being watched by surveillance cameras in city centres.

the libertines - music when the lights go out (the libertines)

(♥ the acoustic version by pete.)

is it cruel or kind not to speak my mind and to lie to you rather than hurt you?
well i'll confess all of of my sins after several large gins but still i'll hide from you,hide what's inside from you.
and alarm bells ring when you say your heart still sings when you're with me.
oh, darling please forgive me
but i no longer hear the music..

and all the memories of the pubs and the clubs and the drugs and the tubs we shared together, will stay with me forever.
but all the highs and the lows and the to's and the fro's, they left me dizzy,
oh, won't you please forgive me?
i no longer hear the music..

bad astronaut - the passanger (houston: we have an alcohol problem)

wait, planet earthquake
planet heartbreak, give me this day
dates pass through a maze
are you okay? are you awake?

pride, yours flies to high,
yours is too great, yours is to die
i, i'm taking no side
i'm going under, for once alive
wait, falling airplanes
today, my worries fade away
in suspended dream state
somehow i knew
erase, everything stops now
and now i crash with them

i am a bank deposit
i'm held accomplice to man's will
the faith transcending reason,
the passenger descending
and in an instant time stands still
fade, planet heartbreak
stop thinking,

you must stop thinking.

a distant ship's smoke on the horizon

when i was a child i had a fever,
my hands felt just like two balloons.
now i’ve got that feeling once again,
i can’t explain, you would not understand,
this is not how i am.

gitmek

"...yoksul olduğu için bilgiye ulaşamayanlardan, hayatı ve insanlığı sorgulayamayanlardan, en yüksek eğitim olanaklarının sunuluduğu, delirmek için yeterli bütün malzemeye sahip çocuklara kadar bütün hayat tarzlarında, kaçış, rahatsız edici ama çekici bir yere sahiptir. üzerinde fazla oturulamayan sert bir koltuk gibi. anarşist yazarların okunması gerekmez yaşanan yerden kaçma fikrinin ortaya çıkması için. paranın olup olmaması, bir kentte ya da bir kasabada yaşanması hiçbir şeyi değiştirmez. bir insan ya gitmek ister ya da kalmak. gidenler üzüntüyü çarşaf yapıp üzerine yatar ve o çarşafın üzerinde bin bir zevk içinde hayatla sevişir. kalanlarsa vasat hayatlarını, bir ürünün taban ve tavan fiyatlarına benzeyen taban ve tavan duygular içinde yaşayarak yerleşik düzenin sokak lambaları haline gelir..."
