Symbols of the Powerful and the Powerless (and the irrelevant)

Posted in Uncategorized  by admin | March 19th, 2010

The symbols used by groups of people to represent themselves and their identity or ideas have different values according to whether the group is perceived as powerful and oppressive or as powerless and oppressed. To attack the symbols of oppressors is a valid mode of civil disobedience whilst attacking the symbols of the oppressed is the action of a dictator or tyrant. The architect of the WTC, Minoru Tamasaki, said this about the building – “‘The World Trade Center should, because of its importance, become a living representation of man’s belief in humanity, his need for individual dignity, his belief in the cooperation of men, and through this cooperation his ability to find greatness.”

Faith No More – Mike Patton receives a Symbol…(Chile 1991)

Posted in Uncategorized  by admin | February 15th, 2010

….followed by "Sweet Dreams"… Maybe someone from Chile can help me out here and let me know what the host was saying, and presenting some sort of symbol to Mike Patton here. Mike then receives a couple kisses from the woman who gives the statue, and he then gives the host a kiss on the cheek.. and then smacks the host on the ass as he leaves the stage.. very funny, but does come back for "Sweet Dreams" Live from Vina Del Mar, Chile on Feb 6,1991 at Quinta Veraga, the night after the other Vina Del Mar concert I have here.
