This is the first of what I hope is going to be a very long and thourough project.
Lately I've wondered a lot about our generation and the lack of identity that seems to give our generation character. All the glamour and "bling" of Hip Hop or the "Depression" of the rockers and grungers, all the melancholy of Coldplay-songs... Is it really true? Or is it just something alluring, that gives us a chance to define ourselves.

Most of the time I feel stranded. Just like him, up there.

May I present: A parody to post-modernism.

hmmm das gibt wieder n text ^^
also... zuerst dacht ich mal nur.. ouh... wie bitte? bzw was das soll. hab rumgerätselt und rumstudiert was das soll und dann den text unten gelesen. nochmal bild angucken, nochmal lesen.
vom ersten eindruck war ich, wie gesagt, enttäuscht. doch nach dem lesen des textes, der ziemlich genau meinen Gehirnwindungs-erzeugnissen entspricht kann ich sagen,dass die bildwirkung absolut gelungen ist. gestrandet, genau. denke es gäbe keinen besseren titel für das bild, und wenig bessere bilder für dieses wort (in diesem sinn).
erstmal soweit zum inhalt, für das du auch den fav von mir bekommst.
trotz des genialen konzepts und der idee, gefällt mir die umsetzung leider nicht so ganz. nichts gegen die komposition oder so. aber glaub was mich stört, und jetzt bitte nicht lachen, ist, dass die hautfarbe zu gebräunt ist. klar... schwierig zu verändern, ist auch nur ein detail. gestrandet... allein, neustart, ehrlich...kann da leider nicht genau schreiben was ich damit mein... s ist in meinem kopf, vllt schafft der gedanke später noch den weg in meine finger, dann werd ichs dich hier wissen lassen.

Alles zusammen, wirklich eine super Arbeit, auch wenn mich fast hab dazu überwinden müssen, dem Bild ne 2te chance zu geben :). bereue es nicht.
Eek, he's nekkid! lol.

Just kidding, I'm mature about this kinda stuff. Very nice shot, I love the angle. I agree with the message you described and I like the fact that he's not burdened down by all the material and superficial things in our world today. It's just him as a man, not hiding anything. ^_~ Very good job again.

A rather large paper I read online, I can't quite remember it where I read it, pretty much summed up recent generations starting back with the anti-war movements in the Vietnam era as generations with an identity crisis.

We have nothing to identify with, no national "things" to be proud of like our previous generations (defeating Nazism in WWI and II, making it to the moon, etc).

I found the reading rather fascinating.

thats brilliant i really hope you keep up the project then i am really interested in the younger generations/lack of identity idea.

Being a high school student i see how people mask themselves (very obviously and in a shallow way) with others ideas. Movies, and music have such an effect on others they always want to be someone else, somebody defined and more concrete than others. I cant blame them because it's comforting but it's just not reality. Everyone just comes off as a phonny.

Anyways Great Photo and i hope to see more
so good.
i love your work.
