MEMORIA INTERNUM AD HOC PAX ROMANA ( USA )
I don't really know what you get from the Latin title but it does nearly means;
The memories of temporarily internal Roman peace ( for me its nowadays-2014 United States of America ).
With this summary heading I will try to share my memories through my trip to USA by april-may 2014;
My first impression occuried during the visa period, the fully systematized online sections with also foolish questions like " Are you a terrorist ? " etc. were giving clues which kind of country it is, in two ways; systematic and absurd.
Yes the life in USA, looks like my meal in the plane; freedom is to be packed, framed and controlled. Freedom is to have the property and isolation.
Indeed its a big country where every city/state has different moods and traditions; likewise my basetown Atlanta; a highly obese region where very few people walk/skate/run but use cars and eat pretty heavy;
Tastes good, but you need to climb a mountain to burn this meal and no mountain around, only cars and gas pedal...
Atlanta and around was significant for its human-rights struggle, as neighbour States; Alabama, Mississippi; Martin Luther's Atlanta; a burned city lost its old structure during the civil war...
They say South always smiles more; yes indeed, i observed people (workers more) are more smiling and looking "happy" in their work cycle...
I can compare it to here , Turkey-Istanbul, or most Europe, Americans smile and care more about their customer in service works, I think the -must- tip tradition works great for a healthier economic system and urges worker to work more in passion to earn by tip in a way...
New Orleans, a filthy pretty city of south;
My democracy test was to wear my CCCP t-shirt bought from Moscow in USA, this photo was taken in a rather conservative restaurant where more the whiteys visit and eat... on the road the most interesting congratulation came from a Starbucks worker;
- Hey I love your shirt man !
:)
Yes, USA passed the freedom of speech and expression test for my side.
Dallas, just looks like this photo; super-modern; clean; proper = boring.
The best thing was the museum, art museum is a completely "free" and "interactive" place to spend a whole day.
One of the good thing maybe for USA can be counted for the respect of visual arts, where in a consume and spectacle based society embedded with iconist Christianity, its reasonable, a good artist will always find a way to survive there, i suppose... Even in toilets you can see an oil on canvas.
Cars, cars, cars everywhere, taking advantage of being the king of petrol empire and control/exploit; almost 80% of the cars have 1 person inside, the second biggest city Los Angeles is just constructing its subway-metro system new ! in 2014 !!!
The results are traffic in almost every big city even with 6 to 6 laned highways, and less moving, obese, an unhealty nation...
That photo shows a kind of "bazaar" in USA, for my culture, I cannot say its an open bazaar like we have, but a kind of supermarket with vegetables and fruit only...
Less communication, more buy&go event... to take photo was also forbidden strangely... thats why the photo resulted blurry.
I think it shows a significant change between west and east, where here bazaars are more fun, direct commucation with minor seller/provider, prices can be changed by the seller even in the day;
there its fully controlled, labeled and like almost everything "taxed", tring to decrease more communication of freedom(for minor providers) but supporting simply consume, freedom(for major landlords/providers) and in a more and more controlled situation...
That's Atlanta, maybe one of the good thing for me is the city and forest combination, where the cities are well planned and after skyriders you can meet with a forest soon...
A nature and fun city, Los Angeles; the tragic homeless scenes and clowny fame together, celebrating its new metro line in 2014, still under construction...
However or whatever USA is not a total Evilland, a different culture, sure not a balanced one...
Good people are there and welcomed me so well, will never forget in my life, I was personally very well cared...
Like all the world, the people who earns their life with labour is same, they have good values, same problems...
I end with a quote from a waiter in Savannah, in a friendly speech :
" A change will come soon, and this time it will be so big. "
