I am not sure where to put this so I stuck it here.  I caught a blurb on morning TV today about this photographer's exhibit.  The exhibit is actually called "End Times".  No kidding.  She took pictures of children in "pain" which she created by giving the children candy then taking it away, and snapping the picture.  All this with parent's consent of course.

The photos are here http://www.paulkopeikingallery.com/artists/greenberg/exhibitions/endtimes/
for anyone who wants to check it out, but obviously be aware of end time triggers since the whole thing is shouting "I AM A TRGGER" by it's title. 

I found myself disturbed by the whole thing, on several levels.  One, I support freedom of expression, as an artist.  I worry about being manipulated to change my mind on this.  But I found the images disturbing and for some reason slighty  pornographic on some level.

[EDIT: Maybe "pornographic" is the wrong word.  It was more like I found myself thinking that someone who enjoys hurting children would like these pictures.]

 This exhibit has created a huge uproar on grounds that the artist exploited the children to get her material.

Which raises the questions:  do artists have a social responsibility when they produce their work?  If we produce work we are programmed to produce, how can we tell when we make something outside the programming?  Or can we?

The Illuminati sure likes double meanings.


This is from the press release on the same web-site:
Jill Greenberg explains, “The children I photographed were not harmed in any way. And, as a mother, I am quite aware of how easily toddlers can cry. Storms of grief sweep across their features without warning; a joyful smile can dissolve into a grimace of despair. The first little boy I shot, Liam, suddenly became hysterically upset. It reminded me of helplessness and anger I feel about our current political and social situation. The most dangerous fundamentalists aren’t just waging war in Iraq; they’re attacking evolution, blocking medical research and ignoring the environment. It’s as if they believe the apocalyptic End Time is near, therefore protecting the earth and future of our children is futile. As a parent I have to reckon with the knowledge that our children will suffer for the mistakes our government is making. Their pain is a precursor of what is to come.

And this is what she means by "End Time."

Yeah, I saw this story in my local newspaper.  I think that honest photogrpahy of people's emotions is ok, as long as you aren't intruding on their lives, but this is manipulation/control/fear/pain being purposefully instileld in children in order to create "art".  I find it unethical.  It also reminds me of the Pavlov's Dog experiment where a certain action is performed to get a certain reaction.  This is standard programming anyway: give the child something beautiful, then take it away and manify their trauma to install programming.

The End Times trigger is probably to activated child alters that have had this experience, and are thus prepared to act in irrational ways, and also be more easily lead by "Saviours" to end their "grief".  We'll see more of this I'm sure as time roll by....

It shows what the Illuminati think of us really, that they create these set-up scenarios.  In the programming matrix, programming functions can feel and seem 'glamourous' and important, bt in reality it is a sordid degradation of our humanity to be controleld in this manner.  All the activated programmees don't seem so slick and charming as their hollywood counterparts, though this imprinting is what our virtual worlds are based on.  We need to find a way to create for ourselves in an uplifting manner.  It's our energy that is being used to fuel this agenda, so we have to redirect it to more suitable and self-empowering pursuits.

Since the time of this art gallery issue I have noticed a huge increase in the End Times activations.  Looks like we're in for a bumper ride! :P
