JaMMiN' WiTH BaNKSY(s)...

It’s the time of year again for Banksy to do some mildly radical things under the guise of his super-secret super-hype guerilla mystique in order to be ultra-relevant again. Taking the bait, we are once again eating his shit up, perpetuating his self-fulfilling prophecy of being famous by acting like he doesn’t want to be famous.

Alice Wang

“But there’s no way round it — commercial success is a mark of failure for a graffiti artist. We’re not supposed to be embraced that way. When you look at how society rewards so many of the wrong people, it’s hard not to view financial reimbursement as a badge of self-serving mediocrity.”

Banksy

Have a Big Gulp of relevance...not 2 difficult too find in the Emirate of Bloomfukistan.

Banzai with Banksy is fun

A new kind of bullet and gun

Now Liberty's torch

Like flowers that scorch

Show tyrants that they haven't won

The Limerick King

Let me put it this way. If they want to throw you in jail anyway, why not act in the name of strong principle instead of kitch that belong on Pinterest?

I wish he would use the Bloombooger idea.

Great film. Kudos for posting this link. 9/11 so obvious even a 'blindman' can see!

(Couldn't help myself)

True story: After watching some late at night a month ago I immediately ordered this film from his website (in Euros) figuring Massimo will make more bank than if I order from Amazon. Next morning I get a order-confirmation email and then wonder to myself "Fuck, I hope it's not in Italian!" Not two minutes later the phone rings and the caller ID says "Massimo Mazzucco". I pick up and it's the director Massimo himself asking if I want the English or Italian version!

Great guy. People, Massimo is offering this film for FREE due to the importance of the information, but for those who can afford it please send a few bucks his way. I think this will be the 9/11 documentary that survives as the definitive debunking document.

This next one is my fav...But I would change the caption to "Today's Weather: Scattered Drones"

LOL!

LOL, love 'the drone rider' shepherd, WB7

Sun, 10/20/2013 - 22:15 | 4074780 williambanzai7

I have a different drone rider. This one deserves "kudos to koan." Sounds like a zen nightclub.

Sometimes I think it would be funny to set up a camera taping some of "Bloombergs Brownshirts" and then squeeze off a round, just to see what hilarity ensues when untrained wanna-be dickheads suddenly have to act like they know what to do in a combat situation.

Careful what you say...

Sun, 10/20/2013 - 17:27 | 4074171 GMadScientist

You're right, of course, I wouldn't want to see what the idiots might do to innocent bystanders in their panic.

Sun, 10/20/2013 - 08:30 | 4073151 Cognitive Dissonance

As always Banzai7 you render brilliant social commentary with seeming ease and extraordinary output, the sure sign of genisis. Just please don't cut any ears off. ;))

Sun, 10/20/2013 - 15:45 | 4073953 Tall Tom

That is an extremely clever complement. Genesis is genius. It always has been. It always will be.

Really, no sarcasm intended. That is very clever and I will remember that. Thanks for teaching that to me.

Thanks ! :)

I assume you did that. Well done!

You can do some wicked satire by converting words into people and so on.

Sun, 10/20/2013 - 23:24 | 4074957 hangemhigh77

you may think about doing something to the UK about them contracting to build a nuclear power plant. WHO in their RIGHT MIND would do that? I'm sure ALL the people would say NO WAY. However the people are just victims and slaves to the rich elite fuckers. Londonshima coming up. Maybe they can get GE to build it for them. I'm sure they'll find a fault line to buld it on.

About energy what do you propose ?

Hope you consider current situation, basically for oil and gas :

And for renewables true potential, most probably the best synthesis on the subject (complete pdf free) :

(which also focus on the UK case)

Mon, 10/21/2013 - 00:00 | 4075040 williambanzai7

I saw that. Let's see what gets stirred up.

Sun, 10/20/2013 - 09:48 | 4073199 yt75

Yes I did, quite some time ago, and lost some parts of it in fact ..

And bravo for your work

All/most of them take some parts of Bansky's work ?

Sun, 10/20/2013 - 14:00 | 4073728 williambanzai7

Some, not all.

It was a frighteningly Orwellian moment Friday when Lloyd Blankfein came on CNBC - his little devilish self - grinning and bobbing his bald head up and down - to congratulate Maria Bartiromo on her 20 year anniversary.

Satan loves his little angels - Lloyd included I am certain.

I believe in you. I am a math theoretician. My life is about changing the world, helping. But I'm a math guy, so HR tells people I'm the fool. TED TURNER WAKE THE FUCK UP.

Sun, 10/20/2013 - 02:32 | 4073022 williambanzai7

Just so you have an idea what detail goes into this. Look at the windows in the Jump You Fuckers picture and look at the font on the Pepper Spray Can.

No corner cutting here ;-)

Who wants a Tony Baloney Public Enemy T-Shirt?

Sun, 10/20/2013 - 15:30 | 4073923 Tall Tom

That Campbell's Pepper Spray Can is better than Andy Warhol as it is relevant.

That needs to be done as Oil on Canvas, also.

Damn!!! That was good.

Sun, 10/20/2013 - 22:32 | 4074101 williambanzai7

I'm happy to do that in oil for anyone who wants it. Alternatively I can arrange to have it produced across the border ;-)

I am an artist. And i am in awe. Like your stuff. Like your stuff very much.

Sun, 10/20/2013 - 22:13 | 4074774 williambanzai7

Tnx

I am always happy to hear from other artists. And to highlight their work here if it is on topic.

I notice she has no gap between her thighs; where did I hear that that was the criteria to earn top model ayes?!

Her thighs are nice and I need some ice to avoid a bucket of vice.

You can see why the postman always rings twice when you notice her letter device.

Take that you limerick king from a limerick jack of all trades.

Awesome depth of richness, WB7.

"when the concept of freedom has been abolished the whole climate of thought will be different. In fact there will be no thought, as we understand it now. Orthodoxy means not thinking — not needing to think. Orthodoxy is unconsciousness."

Where did Orwell come up with this stuff?
