fish

on the animal/human tip,
check boy peter's beautiful film about fish in tokyo
if i was a curator i'd put it in a show on the animal/human tip.

this gets me thinking about humans and fish, and then about whether i could morph into a fish and then one thing leads to another and i am at Face Transformer, the bizarro invention of some probly well-meaning but definitely racist cats at st. andrews university.

so i jump in.

i mistakenly label my original picture as afro-caribean [sic] which leads to an afro-caribean transformation that looks just like my original. right.
 so then i transform myself into a caucasian person. 

an aryan upgrade! i go back and label my original caucasian, rendering me afro-caribean thus:


isn't it weird you can't morph caucasian into caucasian, afro into afro? it's like you're not supposed to see the race template. thinking myself much flyer as an afro-caribean [sic] woman, i feel sad for a moment, morph into a fish, and swim away.
