The Death Drumstick
This is a handsome schematic indeed, and everyone likes a good schematic.
Wasn't it Sigmund Freud who suggested that re-presenting our perceptions of our own inner demons/anxieties into mental images or words that convey dreams/hauntings helps us create a schematic/blueprint of human consciousness itself?
When I saw the apocalypto-paranoia film
"Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior" (1981), which presented images/schematics of a post-apocalyptic wasteland controlled by maniacal 'road warriors' and biker gangs, I thought about the human instinct to create images of turbulence (sounds like an oxymoron).
We know from science/mathematics that the known universe seems to have uncategorized enigmas/mysteries which confound our traditional models of probabilistic analysis of dynamic systems.
In the face of such uncertainty, we can see the social appeal of relevant enigma-paranoia American comic book avatars such as
Mysterio (Marvel Comics), an eccentric super-villain who devises death-traps and devious toy-like gadgets/devices designed to confuse our sense of probability sensitivity.
In my opinion, the end of the world will come when we see a juvenile delinquent perform a copycat murder from the controversial violence-inquisition Hollywood (USA) horror film
"The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" (1974) by dressing up as the iconic goblin in the film (Leatherface) and using a chainsaw to kill people in New York City and then stating something wry and ominous like,
"I'd rather use a chainsaw to kill the lackadaisical people of NYC than see a chainsaw in the hands of a bureaucrat using it to rip down trees to make more city paper."
Anyone ever heard of the
Necronomicon?
