ENTER THE 36chamBEARS… A.E. England 12.01.11
Largely influenced by WuTangClan’s 5% philosophy known as “supreme mathematics”. The bearmy is using nine mirrors under this belief to “bring into existence” four bears perspectives. (9 x 4 = 36) These bears were developed exclusively for the Data Collection and Storage division (or the “D.C.&S. Agency”) and collect imagery through optical surveillance.
The arrangement of the bears in the space gives a big brother static perspective and reveals how the viewers interact/react to technology that is already an everyday occurrence in their lives. An awareness test of individuals if they will accept this spooky nanny cam surveillance or if they will take more time to investigate…where is their image going?
There are people who accept what is given and go on (often in a rush) and others who take time to live in a more awake enlightened way. It is the bearmy’s philosophy that we must combat the speeding of time and slow our existence to make all of our creation and consumption more genuine and deliberate.
