about 2faced1.com

2FACED1.com shows one persons two different faces in photos;

Persona 1:
WHAT YOU WANT TO BE
CONSIDERED AS

Persona 2:
WHAT YOU FEAR TO BE
CONSIDERED AS

This leads to a discussion about stereotypes and inner fears of getting misunderstood by the surroundings. Thoughts that every thinking modern day person does reflect upon. We're asking every day people from an innercity context where old categories as ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexuality and class are reassessed, why they choose to look like they do. We’re diggin' deep, peeling off garments, codes and attributes. We’re searching for transnational identities - is the conclusion that we choose whoever we want to be today?!

 

A 2FACED1 STATE OF MIND

A 2FACED1 is highly aware of existing stereotypes related to your own ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexuality and class. You’re trying to avoid them but sometimes also play with them to make people think twice about who you are. Two faced doesn’t mean anything negative here, it explains the double folded view you have on identity if you’re not the existing norm. It means you have the feet in different worlds, can move between them but feel rather at home in that space in between. You've stepped out of your comfort zone and have become one of the new identities where ol' categories are mashed up and rootlessness and non-given identity just means major possibilities.

The Graduate

Post date Wed 9 Jun 2010 1:11 PM

JOHNNY'S BIRDJOHNNY'S BIRD

THE COBRA SNAKETHE COBRA SNAKE

JOHNNY'S BIRDJOHNNY'S BIRD

Fucking students. Same old shit every year. The whole city smells like beer burp and everywhere there're screaming teenagers who play tacky radio hits and think they have something to celebrate. But the graduate is nothing to celebrate. So when they cross the street under my window and play "I Got a Feeling" for the hundredth time I have to throw eggs at them from my window and yell:  

“You Got A Feeling To Night’s Gonna Be A Good Night. Good for you. It's your last Good Night because from now on your life will be shit! You’ll be controlled by authorities who are worse than your most fascist teacher and you’ll get meaningless jobs to lead the post-colonial economic system further towards the end of the world. You’re gonna need to get drunk to feel some kind of happiness and then you’ll try to change that by having kids who will grow upp and be as obsolete and fucked up as you. And if you are the type who try to oppose all the shit the system has created for you, you are probably a cynical bugger like me and you’ll be depressed for the rest of your life, get tattoos for all your money and die of starvation.”

THIS WAS MY GRADUATE

Mom and I had a fight for a month about my graduate outfit and my refusal to serve meat at my student at-home. Finally mom agreed about the vegetarian food if I took out my bull-ring piercing in my nose. She was still pissed about my outfit but I wore black leggings, t-shirt and shoes anyway. At the graduate day I was the only sober person in the world and refused to sign my snobbish class”mates” student caps with nice words. Came home and called my depressed boyfriend in jail on his smuggled phone and hated the world a little bit more.

The eighteen year old Linn wasn’t fun at all. I’m actually a quite nice and positive person compared to then. But I hate students. Still.

Jag fattade aldrig att du var nykter. Var nog för full för det. Dock kan du inte hålla på och ljuga om att du inte skrev i mössa det står "Genders 4-life" med din handstil i min!!
