These words remind me of the "Target" commercials. You
know the ones
where a woman is singing, or more aptly, moaning in a somewhat
bewildered, anxious, anguished,
seductively throaty voice the
whimsically captivating words: I don''t know what it is but I gotta''
have it and I want more. ....or something very close.
I really admire those
commercials from marketing prospective. They
really conjure thoughts of shopping and likely touch the soul of
quintessential consumers, where ever or when ever it is aired.
The message is mesmerizing by inference, and in its blatant truth. It
simultaneously, albeit subtly, mocks viewers while managing to catch
them and wrap them tightly within a ubiquitous projection of their
digitized plasmarized, LCDed, air-waved
web of common human
desires...., A web that ensures that we, me, us, you, I ... ..will all
soon turn into loyal customers. ..A web whose televised waves may
bounce around the universe endlessly, perhaps embarrassingly, extolling
the essence of our humanity.
Wouldn''t it be better if we had commercial bouncing around the universe
singing in a bewildered anguished, anxious, seductively throaty voice
about the horrors of war? The wasted billions spent on a war, and the
pitiful waste of young vibrant lives.
