I like to say we, as human, are all « shaman » : we're structuring chaos into order. Any job is just that, it's a story, it's transforming & aggregating bits of the information field into another, surrounding it by meanin

Once a media is accepted and known by the multitude it becomes performative, a spectacle where authenticity vanished preempted by new social rules. Beaudrillard's hyperreality describes the situation where we don't live in reality

Yes, those regimes - as Iran's - are looking for the nuclear weapon to protect themselves, as we do. That's not really fair to prevent other countries to gain access to it just because we disagree with their political views. In
