Cars on fire
are becoming a common phenomenon in major cities
like Berlin, Paris, Detroit and where else.
Setting cars on fire keeps me thinking about the story
behind the act. May it be a form of political expression,
free speech - talking fire.
Sociologists, politicians engage to translate into more
common languages, police try to identify the talking
heads for an interview.
May it be a form of art - Nevada's Burning Man in the
urban sphere of public space. Adoring two key elements
of our civilization, fire and cars, combined.
Or the cremation of our true companions:
"the inner city itself becomes a car graveyard, vehicles
coming home from across the country to die incinerated."
Though until cars start losing fire (when dying - or
becoming e-cars) those vehicles always contain, control
and utilize those magic flames.
They are always on fire, the difference is
visibility
translation
the law
the smell
