This is her hand, this is her other hand, this is her arm
this is her index finger, look where she is pointing at
this is her hands in the air, what things are in her hands

Making a character, making somebody Hullu
Omaehtoinen ympäristön muokkaus
Mikä on sallittua ja mikä ei. Sallittua on rakentaa mielenerämaata. Sallittua on pyhittää kuin turvallisena ja hyvänä julkinen tila kuluttamiselle ja massablokeille, jotka ottavat meidät haltuunsa mielinä, ajatuksena ettei asialle voi tehdä mitään. Kuluttamiseen kannustavaa julkista tilaa hallitsee yksinkertaisuus ja selkeys materiaalien, värien, ideoiden, assosiaatioiden ja tulevaisuusvisioiden suhteen. Se, mitä rakennamme säilyy useita vuosikymmeniä paikallaan. Suuntamme on yksinkertaistaa kuinka liikumme, ajattelemme, suhtaudumme julkiseen tilaa. Kuinka julkisessa tilassa ollaan ja mitä siellä tehdään. Suunta on yksilöllisyyden, omaperäisyyden, kulttuurin ja variaation latistaminen, litistäminen ja unohtaminen vähemmän tärkeinä, kaupanteon tiellä olevina. Kauppa ja kasvutalous tarvitsevat massan ihmisiä, jotka turvallisuushakuisesti saavat tyydytystä hankkiessaan, kuluttaessaan. Hankinnoissaan, jotka ovat sidoksissa jatkuvasti muuttuviin trendeihin, jotka luovat illuusion moninaisuudesta ja yksilöllisyydestä. Toimiessamme niin, että se mitä omistamme, on se mitä olemme. Ison toimijan määräyksen alaisina kuvittelemme löytävämme onnen, koska voimme täyttää materiaaliset haaveemme ja tulla hyväksytyiksi ulkoisen kuvan kautta. Yksilöllisyys ja omavaltaisuus alkavat olla uhkia. Se näkyy kritiikin särmättömyytenä, puutteena ja näkymättömyytenä.
On the, off the, nightgown on the floor, 2008
Dark side gets darker.
As long as feminism is spoken and addressed by middle class only it has value of marginal jargon. Academic talk does not reach those whom it should benefit, whom feminism was made to benefit. That is the drawback of academic philosophizing and towering. Meaning of ideas and core of any worth while idea is in action. Value of feminism is how well it functions in every day, for every person and makes the grass root. How well it manifests itself there where people interact with each other. Without action feminism is dead. If people are afraid of feminists, of declaring feminism, being feminists, good question is why so. To deny feminism is to deny human rights from women. Why feminism has become ’unfashionable’? Women who fight for their human rights are unfashionable? We better change the fashion.
Being a good sport and playing it safe do not make the wanted effect. Revolution is in action. To play it safe is what academia does. Talk is not trustworthy enough, it is not good enough. People who play it safe are not trustworthy. Universities do not risk finance, reputation, status, jobs nor continuation of academia as it is for ideological fight.
To take action for what one believes in and most of the society does not is putting all at risk. Nothing will change unless we take such risks.
Without her she gets made, a kind of other, malformation of sex. She needs persona and identity of her own. What does she make of herself, of this lot? Out of these forms of hers. She must build herself.
Character of mist that makes you feel cold inside. Her reputation precedes her, irregular person, despicable. She is what you heard, you think. What you made of her in your mind via your and other people’s speech. Isn’t she. Talk works like clay. Story of her could be continued in this way unless she would not act for her defense. Get that clay into her own hands. She needs herself to oppose, resist and defend herself. Nobody else does it. Nobody else is interested in her life. Her life what it really is, what she really is like and able to do. Her reality is not interesting to anybody but herself, she lives it, not you and makes it interesting. She makes her life even there is discouragement, contempt, laughter, ill talk, threat, there is so little faith in her that it is unbelievable and unbearable. To accept passively what goes on and on, because others accept it, it suits them and they say there is nothing one can do, for her it is not an option. That is her exceptional quality, active resistance, energy of hers.
Evaluations, descriptions, adjectives, measurements and comparisons, faults, flaws, drawbacks. Qualities we need. Qualities we have made us and what are they worth, how do qualities change. We imagine, make, consume and refine ourselves.
She is not right. Characteristics that is stated as a fact without further evidence than hearsay. Demonizing her to people who listen. Who asked about her. Without her she gets made. As if she died. Character of mist that makes you feel cold inside. Is this the same world we inhabit? You speak of me, but you do not confront me nor speak to me. How little respect there is, how little trust. She is what you heard as a fact. To think otherwise would be unthinkable. Thinkable pleasure, envious joy of dragging her down speaks mountains. She is not right.
She is not right. To kill is to entertain. It is to better yourself. To paint a picture of malicious woman is to draw a separating line. Pointing her out from above, from a distance, from acclaimed perfection, from accepted shameless perfection undeniable.
To know her is to say what she is. She is loud, she is noisy, she is quiet, she is broken, she is tense, she is irrational, she is shameless, she is lost, she is dead.
Must be imagination. The things of a thing, what a thing is. It’s a she. She is, and still she is not.
She is beautiful she is fat she is boring she is weird she is dowdy she is stupid she is jumpy she is grumpy she is ugly she is shy she is unfashionable she is immoral she is slutty she is colorless she is old she is distant she is opinionated she is straightforward she is stubborn she is impossible she is intolerable she is unapproachable she is presentable she is nice she is cute she is arrogant she is scary she is messy she is crazy she is frizzy she is fuzzy she is edgy she is angry she is hostile she is fragile she is lame she is eatable she is fuckable she is bitchy she is nerdy she is in the way she is the way she is not found she is unknown she is hidden she is a burden she is childish she is cranky she is whiny she is evil she is jealous she is treacherous she is intelligent she is bright she is moody she is talented she is alone she is a monster
The kind of thing anyone can crush.

Mother Jones: ”Glass jaw” is a boxing metaphor for the big, tough-looking guy who can’t take a punch. What are some examples of this in your profession?
Sentence, a punishment
Out of focus, to a point. There is a visible image, but you can see structure of particles that image consists of. It is an unacceptable error in a world of HD. The more high definition we have the more we need it, because we need to see exactly into things, insides of things pictured via perfecting a two-dimensional object which is a photograph in where things are captured in a moment. With all the high definition and looking Still we live in not understanding, in unawareness, looking at a grainy image and feeling inadequate. Distinction, originality and touch of professionalism must be there to function as proof.
