Life is Full of Distractions

Distractions, Distractions, Distractions. When you think about life, thats all it really is. Regardless of what you believe or what you really feel that your journey in life is leading you towards, life is truly just a bunch of distractions. Work, possessions, status, appearance, class, wealth, titles, art, food, race, music, religions, etc. etc. etc. and blahblahblah is just a bunch of fu**ing distractions. All set to make us feel better about why we are here and give us some purpose in life. They make us feel like we are actually “doing” something and that there is some true “cause” for us to be fighting for. But the true cause is that we are a bunch of meaningless rats in a cage that buy into these lies each and every day. We do the same things, over and over and over, without question. And we use the word “freedom” to pretend that we are actually using our free will to make our own decisions. But we all know this is a lie as well.

I’m not here to tell you that life is in fact meaningless, but rather to tell you that this obsession with ridiculous formalities and minute details in life are in fact meaningless. They are all intended to make us feel good about ourselves and therefore justify anything it is that we deem necessary to do. This can be waking up to go to our meaningless jobs every day that we have usually no desire or passion for, or even to buy things that we dfo not need, in order to appease people that we either don’t know, or simply don’t like.

It is all a facade and I believe it’s time to start living for more than just distractions. I say we live for more substance and live less for fashion, status, class, catch phrases, or accepted tradition. I believe that we should live for the truths in life and stop being such hypocrites with everything we claim to “fight for”. The truth is that all peoples are oppressed and experience injustice in some way, so this is more of a reason to realize that we are all the same and stop finding these little “groups” and distractions to separate us further (that’s exactly what they want). It is all meaningless, don’t you see? You have to wake up and realize that you will die with all of your formalities and traditions and it will mean ABSOLUTELY NOTHING…..unless you turn around the brainwashed pattern and make some POSITIVE CHANGE. It takes more than a sticker or slogan or cool song, it takes action and mental change. It is not them, it is YOU who needs to change.

You can do it, so think for yourself and wake the FU** up!

Reactable – The New Age in Synth & Sound Minipulation

There is a very interesting revolutionary synthesizer type product that was recently invented that apparently is a computer intelligent surface that allows for multiple sources to place different shaped objects on top of it to shape and form music.  I have placed a video below as well as a link to the official web site for this new “reactable” technology.  I found this to be pretty damn cool and am sure that you will be hearing a lot about this new music tool.  I also read a recent blog that was saying that it already caught the eye of Bjork for her future projects.  What a surprise, something new comes out, and the big names in music are the first ones to jump on it and exploit it to the death.  I’m sure I will regret even writing about this when it becomes as brand name as Sony, but either way, it is pretty interesting and cool to watch.
