Are the kids left with an option as to whether his leg hairs are standing up or flattened down?
That’s up to artist interpretation, I believe.
Apparently they like to watch it come back up again. So if he wasnt lying about that I would say, given what hes disclosed publicly, the kids do seem to have a realistic expectation in the possibility of a future leg hair position outcome likely being in their favor but it is unclear as to how much control they have insofar as a possible option to choose from or if that is even possible.
You have a good point and it does raise some technical challenges. Maybe ethical ones too, but that is beyond the scope of this discussion. I'm wondering if something along the lines of a "pop-up book" would allow for a high level of realism. Something like this?: https://media1.popsugar-assets.com/files/thumbor/IH6v4p8BlQvAhibQd0aFLWXdw4w/fit-in/1024x1024/filters:format_auto-!!-:strip_icc-!!-/2017/11/01/762/n/24155406/8967b87922151b6b_popupbutterflygarden/i/Butterfly-Garden.jpg
Agreed. Technical and ethical challenges set aside, I must say this much too high brow and might alienate certain viewers with whom brain matter is more scarce. Im actually worried this level of actute high level scholarship in visual form needs some type of contextualization for the unwashed masses who fail to grasp the profundity of such a masterwork. I think your visuals demonstrate Baudrillard's notion of hyper reality. We see here at play demonstrated by the leg hairs actually becomes a symbolic subversion of existing power structures which takes on a realistic sense that imposes itself with superiority even over the impact of the actual leg hairs themselves, in a sense.
The resistance of the leg hairs due to the wetness demonstrates a clear visual irreconcilability representing this inner conflict in the reader particularly where leg hair would be unencumbered by systematic oppression in the form of what Marcuse referred to as an ideology which conceals the grip of domination. In the sentiments expressed by the children represented here by the visual representation of blond leg hair, we see the devastating effects the weight of the water drops represents a lack of autonomy engendered by the current political system but which speaks to a eventual possibility as was discussed we can clearly see that your format takes intellectualism to its very final conclusion really to the frontier, if you will, the literal apex of human intellectual capacity.
Exactly! Clearly you've been reading my mind, although I find it odd that there's been no recent entries to the visitor logs.
What seems indisputable is that there appears to be some connection between the content of your response and the user name that it is issued forth from. I shall now endeavour to drop some random names and topics with the intended goal of obfuscating my lack of erudition as well as my dearth of scholarly accomplishments.
Gary Larson, existentialism, Matt Groening, anamnesis, various high-brow figures from the art world, Dr. Tom Campbell, consensus reality, the field of post-menopausal pediatrics, something called "Divine Pencil Theory" and Gordon Jump.
I'm not sure any of this will help to propel our venture toward fruition but it certainly has an air of sophistication about it. Very important, I believe.
P.S. your use of "profundity" was truly splendid--possibly spectacular.
