“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris

The Phenomenology of that Supermarket Google Acid Trip

Supermarkets are full of agricultural products.

The Deep Dream algorithm has chosen domesticated animals aka agricultural ones that look out of the shelves and people's limbs and clothing.

This is an agrilogistical hallucination.

It's so uncanny.

Uncanny disturbance of agrilogistics as such.

Uncanny nonhuman non-appropriated spirit animal weirdness of the ducks, sheep, cows...

Layers of the uncanny. It's like how jet lag tells you true things about reality.

This is fuckin' genius. Unit now absolutely nothing new has been said since Marx's social hieroglyph (except for Carol Adam's absent referent) which comes close to describing the embodied beings contained in products. Ghosts for sale, not just materially and politically but coopting your imaginary and challenging your Kant and enactivist culture. Humans are in the canned goods as well and only differ in price and shelf placement.
