Jenk K sez:

Tuesday afternoon on June 11th 2013, Police fired bullets at RC controlled flying camera during the protests in Taksim square, Istanbul. Police aimed directly at the camera.Unfortunately the last video was not saved properly on the memory card due to the impact of the bullet. The camera and the helicopter are completely broken.Here is the footage from that camera! This footage you are about to see is from the previous flights minutes before the incident.

“Put that in your pocket now. Put that in your pocket now. Put that, put that in your pocket now. Go on.”

“And what did your last slave die of?”

“Isn’t he a gas ticket.”

“Sure it’ll be grand.”

“Well he now is an amadán of the highest order.”

“Look at that now. And you can take pictures and everything with that? The lot? Isn’t that a great little gizmo now.”

Etc.

Sashie-Masakatsu01 Sashie-Masakatsu03 Sashie-Masakatsu05 Sashie-Masakatsu08A series of oil paintings by Japanese artist Sashie Masakatsu, depicting Man of Steel-ish gravity-defying spheres of compacted urban detritus floating above ruined landscapes.

The works envision a future where environmental disasters have made the cities depicted uninhabitable.

Is that what you want? ‘Cos that’s what’ll happen.
