6th arm: Without noticing it, we are increasingly slipping away from ourselves, succumbing to the world of social media and opening up to complete strangers. The greed in social networks to have as many friends as possible, to indulge in gossip, to forget that there is a real world, makes many become lonely and addicted. You define yourself only through your internet groups; “likes” are your lifeline. Since you rarely experience anything, you have nothing to tell and your friends online already know all the digital gossip there is to know. Reading books, the feel paper in your hands is a thing of the past. But at least you feel alive for a moment if you take a quick picture— but why and for whom in this fast-moving world? Insomnia and fear of being ignored online are the consequences. Our dwindling feeling of personal identity eats away at our real lives, allowing influencers to become all-powerful.

7th arm: With increasing popularity, they suddenly want to try gain power over others, by becoming politicians, for example. More and more magicians, musicians and actors are entering the world of politics. The greed for power has shaped the history of mankind for so long and has ultimately brought only death and ruin. Eloquent politicians can easily spread lies and find enough followers to implement their political agendas, no matter how wrong they are. A charged socio-political climate, history has shown, regardless who is behind the greed for power, creates only losers in the long run. Greed for power manifests itself in many ways: a show of superiority, the claim to be right, the wish to impose one's will. Whether it is Buddhists expelling the Rohingya, Indian Hindus robbing Muslims of their livelihoods, Muslims bombing Christian churches, or crusaders forcibly converting infidels: throughout history, the power of religion may have done more harm than good. Attaining power through a show of strength, physical intimidation or even the use of weapons, leaves traumatized victims and robs countless people of their ancestral homelands. Power through drugs, criminal organizations, politics and world religions can tear apart established social structures and leave irreparable damage behind. Although it was difficult for people to check propaganda for truth before we had the internet, the internet has made it even easier for people today to produce and spread fake news and conspiracy theories and to make others believe just about anything.

| Gosh, where is my camera? Was not expecting to see such a big whale right in front of our boat. Blue whale and landscape from camphor wood and a small corner of Pulai wood. The blue whale is assembled from 2 pieces and the fluke is enlarged. Give whales a decent living space. The real green is more bluish. |
