my pharmakon




it started with a terrible hangover on friday. even had to tell the eye doctor that my vision was probably bad because of hangover (he said it wouldn't matter..)
so now i am even more nearsighted than i was, because of you. you the interface between the computer and me: the screen.
we used to be so friendly now it turns out you were my pharmakon.
i thought you bettered my vision but you were just making me lazy.
making me less than a whole human being, exteriorizing me.
making me even more dependent on tools (like lenses, eye glasses) instead of independent.



Pharmakon: both remedy and poison...

screenign being a pharmakon of concerning the gaze is more meaningful than it looks I suppose.
bu arada aklima geldikce guluyorum: "hop hop bir dakka bir dakka, ben daha yeni uyandim, hang overim, belki o yuzden gormuyorumdur"
