This is a scene from Werner Herzog's encounters on the edge at the world, Werner sum's the scene up with his narration but again it brings me back to Movement and identity.
The penguin's all moving collectively have a proxy identity; informed by a culture, language... semiotics.
Yes it could be called common sense and would be pedantic of me to insist in normal situations that it is anything more, But if we are all occupied by popular culture and common sense then there would be no alternative this is what globalisation is? It is; a VOID it is immobile? and controlling? if it was part of culture that mechanical transport was say... the work of an evil beast... that too would be common sense we wouldn't question it.
doesn't it weird tho sometime we know we have to do/go something or somewhere but you feel u been pull back.the problem is choice, but do we have a choice??
ReplyDeleteYeh i know what you mean, sometimes we do seek out a feeling which we know we get from a certain place/space; a cave, a mountain, a forests it is times like that (it may seem corny)but we realise we are not separate from our environment, we participate within it, and it in us?
