NEW VID RELEASE (Early Access)
🕑 Added 2023-08-04 23:08:23 +0000 UTCWhat to say about this lol... I turned a winding series of thoughts into a Barthesian/Baudrillardian manifesto for images, which was hella fun. There are hundreds of images packed in here, most of which will make sense if you're up to date on the latest drops, but I'll put together a commentary vid here soon to explain my thinking. I hope you enjoy!

Editing fluency making a visible level up, here. Carrying the ideas well.
big sinking energy
IMO the system of objects is underrated

Okay, but what a beautiful background 🩷

"copies of copies YUM!"

Yes, let’s take the side of the image by joining your Patreon where you read books written by a guy who took the side of the image by writing books. Another great video. 👍🏼

Politics and history are images. Communism doesn’t have to have an accurate meaning for people to feel strongly about it in America.

May sound weird, but these image analysis are starting to give me a sense of euphoria or something after consumption. Problem is I was at work and *getting customers* have to bat away the feeling and come back to it later lol

Barbie vs. Aphrodite, who makes the better feminine image?

Pills, you have done it! I was seduced too by your Lacan/Zizek video into reading philosophy. Great to see that you have learnt from the best. Coming from a different culture, this devotion to idols/images does not seem alien to me. But what seems strange is this current day belief in authenticity and positivity. It is not what others/icons tell them to do, it is naturally what they want. No other culture in history is this strange/infantile.

God damn fantastic video as always. But fuck now i gotta read Baudrillard... god damn my reading list is ever increasing

Love how the glasses keep showing us that 'Pills' is an image, by reflecting all the gear used to produce that. We never see the man behind the Pills-image in this one, those glasses stay on. As he is overproducing images 'he' can practice the (fatal) art of disappearing behind the name, behind the glasses, behind the images. Those glasses expose both the secrets of the Pills-image, showing how it is made and rendering it obscene, and the strategy of disappearance chosen by the man who transforms ideas from words into seductive images. Those glasses are this season's Baudrillardcore, worn by a fatal strategist.

Overall great again, but I really liked: - the moving camera effect - ”the culture war is not taking place”
Johannex
I like your glasses💛

This video made me realise that lately I've been consuming too much news media in outdated forms, like an old person. Does trying to escape from vapidity lead only towards death?

I feel like the intro to the video may come across a little dudebro-y to people looking for barbie core stuff on youtube lol
