Empire is emerging today as the center that supports the globalization of productive networks and casts its widely inclusive net to try to envelop all power relations within its world order—and yet at the same time it deploys a powerful police function against the new barbarians and the rebellious slaves who threaten its order.
Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri, "Empire".

hi Cristian
thanx for the visit.
this one is on my desktop right now.
Who would have thought that such an ordinary man could give life to so many weird and wonderful alien creatures on land, in the sea, and in space. Could you make a picture of a "Pierson's Puppeteer" for me? :-) (from Larry Niven's 'Ringworld')
@ V: Don't underestimate a lovely black computer desktop.
@ Will: Stop talking about G.W. Bush's power to annoy species in such an alegorical way.
There are many cool renders of Pierson's Puppeteers! It is very tempting to try since "the majority is always sane" because they are cowards, althought their sanity is quite bipolar and inlcudes clinical depression. :-) But how you picture that? A movie is needed?
I can render you a "Hurty" instead, mysterious animal that was born from a Word Verification here in Blogger. Will be posted as Abstract Nº25, dedicated to you, for obvious "thoughts on language" reasons. ;-)
