That's why I'm not an artist. I'm an aesthete.

"The medium is the message" is a phrase coined by Marshall McLuhan meaning that the form of a medium embeds itself in the message, creating a symbiotic relationship by which the medium influences how the message is perceived, creating subtle change over time. The phrase was introduced in his most widely known book, Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man, published in 1964. McLuhan proposes that media themselves, not the content they carry, should be the focus of study; he said that a medium affects the society in which it plays a role not only by the content delivered over the medium, but by the characteristics of the medium itself.

In his work Simulacra and Simulations, Baudrillard argues the "imaginary world" of Disneyland magnetizes people inside and has been presented as "imaginary" to make people believe that all its surroundings are "real". But he believes that the Los Angeles area is not real; thus it is hyperreal. Disneyland is a set of apparatus, which tries to bring imagination and fiction to what is called "real". This concerns the American values and way of life in a sense and "concealing the fact that the real is no longer real, and thus of saving the reality principle."

Examples of hyperreality:
* A sports drink of a flavor that doesn't exist naturally or elsewhere ("wild ice zest berry").
* Pornography ("sexier than sex itself").
* A plastic Christmas tree that looks better than a real Christmas tree ever could.
* A magazine photo of a model that has been touched up with a computer.
* Films in which characters and settings are either digitally enhanced or created entirely from CGI (e.g.: 300, where the entire film was shot in front of a blue/green screen, with all settings super-imposed).
* A well manicured garden (nature as hyperreal).
* Any massively promoted versions of historical or present "facts" (e.g. "General Ignorance" from QI, where the questions have seemingly obvious answers, which are actually wrong).
* Professional sports athletes as super, invincible versions of the human beings that they actually are.
* Many world cities and places which did not evolve as functional places with some basis in reality, as if they were creatio ex nihilo (literally 'creation out of nothing'): Disney World; Dubai; Celebration, Florida; and Las Vegas.
* TV and film in general (especially "reality" TV), due to its creation of a world of fantasy and its dependence that the viewer will engage with these fantasy worlds. The current trend is to glamorize the mundane using histrionics.
* A retail store that looks completely stocked and perfect due to facing, creating a world of endless identical products.
* A life which cannot be (e.g. the perfect facsimile of a celebrity's invented persona).
* The Novus Ordo liturgy of the Catholic Church, which attempts to simulate tradition while having no organic context, but rather was created from scratch bearing only an artificial similarity to the old.
* A newly made building or item designed to look old, or to recreate or reproduce an older artifact, by simulating the feel of age or aging.
* Constructed languages or "reconstructed" extinct dialects.
* Computer chess is an algorithmic simulation of the chess game, but by the beginning of the twenty-first century the simulacrum overtook in performance the original object of simulation.
* Weak virtual reality which is greater than any possible simulation of physical reality.[12]

Photo by Mathias JÃ¸rgensen. Rest of his photos from worlds can be found here.

This photo is from one of the coolest moments at worlds. This is in the room of some danish players.
The clock is like 12 at night.
We where actually about to go partying when we chose to shred.
I didn't have my shred gear but decided to jump in anyways.
So I am playing in my boxers and what happens.. My penis fucking falls out!
I was able to turn around and get it back in before anybody noticed.

I also hit Terrage > DATW [rpt] for the first time which I was really stoked about.

Just wanted to share that little story..

asmus!! great photo in that last post, and great drawings on this page!!!! I would love one, maybe we can trade a simple drawing for a footbag?

I liked that quasi-porno one on the last page. I love really explicit stuff that is still artsy. You should do me a drawing of you fucking your girlfriend, that would be sweet.

I agree with Matt. Quasi-porno and artsy explicit are sweet! I too would like to see more of that from you!

that's probably the coolest sponsorship I've ever seen a footbagger achieve. Hands down. That's incredible! Congratulate her for me, Asmus!

Asmus · Post by **Asmus** » 13 Oct 2008 10:48

Yeah, I agree Pat.

Some random footbag related stuff happening in my life:
- Danish Champs is next week.
- My mom started going to croquis classes and now she is also hooked on drawing footbaggers (not naked though).
- My littlebrother hit his first ATW. Awesome!
- I hit Opp Toe set Butterfly Swirl bs 10 minutes ago.
(Only hit it on one side from same toe I think)
- I switched to Quantums. They are finally starting to work.
I had to trim down the toe walls though.

Dont know what more to write.

How are you all please post something..

Danish Champs was a blast. Hit some new stuff, had alot of fun and did better in competition than ever.

New hits:

Flip E-walk
Couple of Ripsteins
Symp Rev Whirl bsos and Far Symp Rev Whirl bsos in the same run
DATW * 2 > Terrage > Run with other DATW, Terrage and same DOD

Results:
Third in Circle
Fifth in Routines
Second in Sick3 (DOD > Twirl > PS Rev Whirl)

Fun times where had. I will write more later.

Anne · Post by **Anne** » 20 Oct 2008 09:09

Yeah, you did really well!!! As the others said at the rewards, if the Danish Champion had to be rewarded to the person, who played best according to his/her level, you would have been the champ. I was REALLY amazed by your routine - and you said you wouldn't compete!!

Probs Asmus.

Can't wait to play with you again some time!!

Take care and say hi to Ida!

And once again, thanks for a nice evening on the balcony
