Say hello to the brand new trailer for CON$UMAGE šŸŽ‰šŸ”„ā¤ļøšŸŒŠšŸµļøšŸ¤˜āœØšŸ«¶šŸ»šŸ„¹šŸ’° The film is shot in one single take with fifteen young actors from Herrljunga by the great @burtinstien. I wanted to make a film that AI cannot. Something human, full of flaws and imperfections. Where you get to be a fly on the trees watching the story unfold in real time. Looking forward to share this tour de force in one take with you!
The film was made with THE HUMAN CINEMA MANIFESTO:
1. I will make a film that is imperfect, honest and un-edited in one single take.

ā€Ž2. I will make a personal film that is a counterweight to the so-called perfection of AI.

ā€Ž3. I will work with real people and base the story on what’s happening right now.

ā€Ž4. I will avoid predictable, generic story patterns and generic characterization.

ā€Ž5. Prepare to get lucky - I will let all the ā€œmistakesā€ be in the film.

ā€Ž6. I will dig where I stand and use places and nature with care, and be a visitor instead of occupying places with a film crew and ā€œbuildā€ worlds that is not there.

ā€Ž7. I will make a film so specific that it cannot be copied, by AI or humans.

ā€Ž8. The film can only be screened in its entire length in cinemas, streaming, online etc.

ā€Ž9. The whole production including post should be kept as minimalistic as possible.

ā€Ž10. I will create the film on the basis of participation of the humans involved and the common interest of exploring human traits. Process is all, result is what it is.

Well, it's kind of obvious - the richest men keep the destruction of the world intact, committing genocide in Gaza and the war machine running, while they hook us up to seeing everything as entertainment and creating a want to become like them, chasing algorithms in a rigged game, justifying a broken moral compass with lifestyle branding. Tired of it, and tired of my own consumption of lies and wants and needs. Easy to get stuck in the hate hour as they keep on getting away with murder.  But what they all fear the most is still that we one day will unite and turn our rage against them. The machine will eventually break. And we are one. Free Palestine. 
TYGER IN THE WYRE (Music & Lyrics J Melin Visuals & Chopping by J)
Felt time around my neck never let go 
Like some ancient friend or foe 
Weight is on my shoulders don’t know if I can hold it 
Tyger tyger in the wyre 
Whispering to the sacred liars
No time for ambitions 
No time for premonitions
Sign the petition 
Consciousness clean for today
Oh I don’t think it will be okay
You shot in too deep 
wanna see me weep 
Remember the story of Jobs wife
unmentioned in the Bible
 she said curse God and die
But she stayed till the end
You’re going away
As if you want everything to fade away
Something hurt inside you but gotta live
And you gotta stay positive
Fuck that you say time will have its way
Felt the fade of life around my head 
Like some snake or ancient friend denying you cred 
Weight is on my mind these days 
The centre cannot hold 
Time past and time future 
Time thieves stole your heart again

"Bry dig inte så mycket och knyt an till andra. Våga kärleken. Se på mig, jag är en jävla fegis. Jag har följt dig på avstånd i flera år..."
"Så du har stalkat mig?" 
"Inte direkt." 
"Men du följer efter mig, du ringer till mig anonymt - är inte det definitionen av stalking?"
Stina Backenfall @bacstina (Zara) och Joel Zerpe @joelzerpeofficiell (Mannen) snackar livets essens och enda sättet att bryta sig ut ur maskinen i CON$UMAGE, en ny långfilm i en enda tagning av Johan Melin. #onetake #consumage #joel #stina #zara by @rosesvirtual

"All the wars and commercials that tell us that the machine works fine, everything that destroys - that is Consumage. And you can't get out of it - you work as a slave, go to school like a slave and in the end you become a slave who wonders where all the time went, the moment you woke up." @joelzerpeofficiell delivers a powerful truth to @bacstina in CONSUMAGE, a new film by Johan Melin made in one single take. Have a nice friday! šŸ”„ by @rosesvirtual

I don’t wanna do anything 
But I keep on making myself sing
About the state of the world today 
 It’s contagious 
No one is courageous 
Solidarity is a commercial 
They rewrite history 
And claim your future 
Get addicted to abuse 
Of your mind off your mind
Which in the end you will find in 
An ad for Temu 
I always wanted to become 
Flying Higher than the Ancient One 
Nothing matters any more today 
Everyone’s lost in their way yeah
Get it. 
Fuck it. 
Take it.
Bury it.
I don’t wanna see it go away yeah
Ever wanted to become someone
Flying higher than the ancient sun
Like a plague haunting the nation 
It’s the loss of self-deprivation
All the people on their medication 
More numb than comfortable 
We do miss you Mischief 
That fucking rascal 
Watching people doing lines 
While standing on them
One-second Attention Span 
And Chaos died
I always wanted to become someone
Flying higher than the Ancient One
 Rolling deeper into myself
Put the aspirations on the shelf 
No One cares about anything 
Forget it; I’m already out the door
Like a plague haunting the nation 
It’s the loss of self-deprivation 
I always wanted to become someone 
Flying higher than the Ancient One

The video and the song is one hundred percent AI Slop-free and will be on the Lost Causes Album. If you're wondering what it is about, I can sum it up in one sentence; we're consuming everything like products and entertainment and we're more numb than comfortable. Actually medicated and in loss of Self-deprivation - meaning that we're eating the world, and eventually swallowing it down into an empty void inside. Yeah, there's some Icarus metaphors innit too. Lost in a loop. But hey! We're humans, we act on autopilot. This is why the wise say; Remember Thyself.

Throwing my books in no particular order. They don't like it. Find me @bokmassan in the Pyratid Mobile (A nice looking man in a trenchcoat asking if you like science fiction and media critique). I tried to apply for @anarkistiska_bokmassan but was considered too radical. šŸ¤˜šŸ”„ā¤ļø by @rosesvirtual

Meet me and other authors today in a talk about storytelling @herrljungabibliotek 18:00 šŸ„³šŸ”„ And @bokmassan tomorrow in the @pyratid mobile. We make indie independent again. It's a sign of G.O.Ds existence that so few read my books; Virtual Roses, Great One Digit, Holy As Robots, The Crack, Moonbeam & Villanelle, What You See, Soon It Will Brighten and soon - Those Above. What is G.O.D? It's the quantum computer in my novel Great One Digit that is rigging the game and granting people their innermost wishes in the Holoverse. It's never been this hard to reach out with these stories in Con$umage, where everything is for sale. I've tried everything. Giving away books, campaigns, podcasts, press, social media and I am still happy if I reach one person. But it's very liberating! I gave up the idea of hitting it big in terms of readers, and writing is for me, always been a wonderful way of transmitting ideas, like rings on water, tears in rain, a piece of music for the forest. I reclaimed my autonomy as an artist with these stories and if one of you out there will read and break through the wall of mass and media consumption I will let you in with gratitude from my good old soul ā¤ļø Photo @darko_dare_stojanovski by @rosesvirtual

ā€ŽMy new novel THOSE ABOVE is about the super rich. What they think they are entitled to; and with the use of an AI called Karma, eugenics and arrogance they even lease a woman's womb like an asset and can get away with murder. Hanna Andersson, the teenager who was murdered is maybe alive. Maybe she is part of a Eugenics program for the super rich and their heritage. Local cop Alva Holmquist and the success True Crime Writer Frank Ekstål are the only ones who wants to stop those above and expose the truth in a time where no one wants real answers. Maybe Hanna wasn't killed. Maybe she was forced carrying a child for the billionaire Joel Stiernstedt, a tech bro behind Karma, a new AI soon to be launched. Karma is handling everything from Law Enforcement, Entertainment, Biology and rewriting the truth. THOSE ABOVE is a look behind smoke screens of The AI Hoax, entertainment conglomerates, a pocketed government, abuse, racism and misogyny as power tools for the rich and wealthy. It is a story about the accelerating misuse of social media, vanity and people's urge to become someone - those above seems to get away. Have everyone forgotten what it means to be human? But Alva and Frank will not give up without a fight and take them all down.
