If DuChamp Fitz

The simplest Surrealist act consists of dashing down into the street, pistol in hand, and firing blindly, as fast as you can pull the trigger, into the crowd. Andre Breton, Second Manifesto of Surrealism

A Prophecy

A post-climate change, oil-drained, world dominated by competing Theocracies, maintaining a tenuous, pathetic, and surreal link to science and technology. Their thinking will be circular, like a Rube Goldberg machine, and specious. Their architectures and aesthetics will be similarly distorted, misshapen, and just somehow jarringly illogical. It will be as if the world were in the midst of an anti-Enlightenment, reacting radically against the values of our age, which led to all their suffering. People will be filled with regrets for a world they’ve never seen, except on fuzzy, illpowered, little lcd screens.
