Flash Mob at Raffles Place 23.10.09

damn....can't believe Singapore is finally catching on....took our country awhile, but i guess every other weekend you're gonna see things like this everywhere...no longer is it alternative counter-culture or alienated like in Fight Club or anarchist themes....

I don't know, kind of envious or bitter about it.....It seems i wanna make my own mark, and where the masses go, i avoid... at the end of the day i wanna be the one with most balls..a seperate entity.....Something i tell my mum everyday..

Damn i couldn't be part of this when it was still fresh a last year or months ago...where it was more indie..

This was what the producer of the first flashmob in 2003 spoke of, "Wasik claimed that he created flash mobs as a social experiment designed to poke fun at hipsters and to highlight the cultural atmosphere of conformity and of wanting to be an insider or part of "the next big thing".[7] The Vancouver Sun wrote, "It may have backfired on him... [Wasik] may instead have ended up giving conformity a vehicle that allowed it to appear nonconforming."(wikipedia)

and so, the genius and spirit of Cacophony Society 1986, suffer the same fate as hippies and punks...

it feels like watching an episode of Heroes or Full Metal Alchemist, where a good motive may change the entire world for the worst.
