Relationship Design with Cindy Crawford



The Marquis:

This edition, of, Relationship Design with Cindy Crawford, is mostly, of, the narrative kind, and speaks, in, a historical sense, of an existence really, more, than a typical, relationship. At the heart of this existence, is a figure, who, in one part, of the world {Quebec}, is known as, a Marquis, and in another, Central Asia/Europe, as, a Pasha.

At the basis, of, understanding, this relationship/relating format, is what, was previously called, Cultural Ethnography. The very fact, that, one can build, a total life, around, Cultural Ethnography, and that, in many ways, this form, of Life, does exist today, in, a popular mode, and strongly associated, with, what, they call, Popular Media.

Most today, don't always think only, of, succeeding in life, but in many ways too, of, simple survival. There exists, out there, a Socializing Network, frequented, by people, of all kinds, looking, for an opportunity to, in many ways, escape, their very lives. For some, they seek out, someone, interesting, to be in a relationship with. Others, are looking for, a better job, or economic opportunity, to better, their way of life. A Socializing Network, not rather, too popular, as, it in many ways, in the end, leads, to nothing much, but, broken hearts, of one kind or another. The reason for this, is due to not, understanding, how modern/Western Socializing Networks, came to be, as, they are [mainly centered, around, a Party circuit].

For many out there, looking, for a better deal, in life, they often, seek, to do this, by seeking out, others, with, similar, physical looks/attractiveness, skin colour, place of birth, schooling, or even, work similarities. Whole Socializing Networks, of all kinds, often, arise, based on the above, as, people seek out, better deals, in life, and Night life in many ways, has become, the very center, of, Western living. In other parts of the world, especially Africa, one finds that, different, groups/people, have in many ways, created, Existences, based on, Socializing Networks, totally too, based on Communications protocols [in general, unlike, Western groups, who seek out people like them, based on, looks, race, schooling etc., Africans, have traditionally sought out, people, who communicate (in different manners), in a manner, similar, to them]. A more, advanced way, of doing things, but not, as, sophisticated, as it really, looks like.

The area, of Cultural Ethnography, offers, in many ways, a better way, of, seeking to live as such. Cultural Ethnography, was previously, divided, into, the following parts: Religion/Sculpture, Music, Oral Culture, Orality, Studies and finally, Information Networks. In many ways, one finds that, in, Western Society, Socializing Networks at the lower level of society, are based on, Information Networks, while those, at the top, on, Orality. However though, one finds that, all this, is done, in a rather, wrongly manner, leading, to little results, and poor, successes.

Existence totally, on Cultural Ethnography (or what some, simply call, Culture, without the, Cultural), has existed before, in, more interesting ways. This was especially true, in, Brazil/South America, and parts, of, Central Europe/Asia. In many ways, one simply, begins, to create, associations, of all kinds, based on, Cultural Ethnography, which, in many ways too, are rather racial, in nature [for instance, Orality and Facial features, Oral Culture and hair kind, Music and gender, Studies and Voice formats etc.]. One does find though, associating, with others, based on, this, is rather, an easy way of creating, unions, with another, as, one finds others, based on all this, rather similar, to one [in about, all ways]. What is then left for, is what, they call, brainstorming [and simply, putting heads together].

In many ways, one, is supposed, to, create unions with others, based on, Cultural Ethnography, and one can then see, that, many unions [even within, an area, of, Cultural Ethnography], leads, to very many, associations, of all kinds. In all really, one, lives, a whole Life, based on, these unions, where one, moves, from one area, of, Cultural Ethnography, to, another, and basically creating, a rather, interesting social world, similar, to moving, along, in circular tunnels. When one begins, to, become, more popular [as with, successes really], and in many ways, starts, to accumulate wealth [due to the very, many opportunities], one then creates, very much, in many ways really, what, they call, a Principality [or even, a Princedom (if large in size)]. Principalities, are headed, by figures, known as, Marquis/Marquise, or even, a Pasha. In many ways, they are places really, defined, by two main things: an Estate, or, a Jurisdiction. In all, Cultural Ethnography, can be used, to create, Wealth, or create, a Ruling order/system, of a kind.

The problem though, with all this though, is that, it can heavily, racialize, a Society [despite, working, rather well] [the other alternative most, adhere too, is, associating, based on, womenfolk, which, is rather primitive, in many ways]. In many ways, this racializing, can lead, to, all forms, of, Ethnic conflict, which, though, can be dealt with, in, several ways [including too, a culture, of humour] [Many of the wars, one sees, in, Central Europe/Asia, arose, due, to all this (racializing), resulting, in, all forms, of, Ethnic divisions]. In all, such Ethnic Divisions [historical based], can lead, to what, they call, Social Upheaval [as with, the Orange Revolution, in the Ukraine].

Modernity and the birth of Popular Media:

This way, of living, based on, Cultural Ethnography, is traditionally, seen, in very few places, in a, developed form, but, in many ways, has come, to influence, modern living, in ways, one, could never fathom [unless, one understands, the role, the, Visual Arts, have, on this way, of living]. Modernity, is a word, that, most, find hard, to grasp fully (in meaning). To them, it simply refers, to the Modern world, of all kinds of, electronic gadgets, and, machinery too. They don't in many ways, truly, understand, how all that, really, came about.

In many ways, the birth, of Modernity [as a way of living], has, its origins, in what, they call, the Visual Arts. Rather strong way, of, presenting Culture, as is most, commonly seen, with Photography. In many ways, the Visual Arts, are highly, tool based Arts, and can be used, to distort, Reality, and present it, even, from what, they call, Uniformity [as in attempting, to make, something, perfect, to ones eyes]. It is this form, of Art, that led really, to, the creation, of, Modernity, as especially with, regards to, the various gagdets, and other such, technologies, that one, often sees [Visual Arts, rather common, in, America too, as with, China, are responsible, for, both Societies, developing, lots of inventions (and not, invention or technology)].

In many ways, Visual Arts, being, strongly associated, with Cultural Ethnography, are in, many ways too, responsible, for the, materiality, associated, with this, way of living.

One of the groups, with, rather strong, Visual Arts, and, who have come, to strongly, influence, living, in this modern, age, are the Bantu people, seen, in Cameroon, and Southern Nigeria. The Bantus [brown skinned], have their origins, in, Egyptian Civilization. To understand, a rather complex topic, is to, know, that Egypt, housed, different populations, who knew, each other well, but were rather, distinct too, from, each other, in one way or another. The Bantu, are simply, a small part, of, a larger whole, who, were in many ways, at the fore, of, the creation, of, Ancient Egypt [as with some, of the first, Pharaohs]. Bantu here, refers, to brown skinned people, who look like, Samuel Eto'o, Spike Lee, and even, Larenz Tate.

In todays parlance, Bantu people, still living, in Egypt, are referred to, as, Copts/Coptics, and in many ways, had, a Civilization of their own, which, went, by the name of, Lydia. The origins, of the Copts/Coptics, is rather diverse, but, they are known, to have, originated, from the famed Egyptian, Land of Punt [in Somalia/Ethiopia]. In many ways, these Coptic populations, are no, truly different, from, Ethiopian populations, but there is still, very much, a greater, diversity, in this whole gene pool. Ethiopian populations too, are related, to, the Berbers/Amazigh, of, North Africa, who were part, of, the Lydian Civilization.

These same groups, also, founded, a settlement, in what, they call, Syria, and today, most, Syrians, are also, of, this diverse, gene pool [the so called, Afro-Asiatic myth, of Egyptian origins]. The Coptic/Ethiopian/Bantu populations, were known, to the Ancient Greeks, as, Aethiopians, and they are a, different group, of people, from, Egyptians, from Kemet [Northern Egypt] [some, who became, Greek/Spartan, as with, the example, of, Bow Wow]. Aethiopians, being found too, in, Central Asia/Europe, as, the famed Colchians, of Herodotus lore, eventually too, became, a rather, large part, of, Central Asian/European life, mainly, as, managers, of the, Estates/Jurisdictions, created, by, Syrian populations, of, the same gene pool [Hittities & Kurds], in those regions [the Kurds, were mainly, the military powers] [the Romans, derogatorily referred to, Aethiopians, as Gypos].



The most powerful, medium, of the Visual Arts, has always, been, the Poster, and even, Wall Graffiti too. What, the Visual Arts do is, in many ways, kind of, magical, as seeing, good Visual Art [in a Poster form perhaps], results, in one, being, eventually transported, into, living, in the world displayed. Visual Arts in all, have, resulted, in a form, of materiality, heavily, based on, gadgets, and gadgetry [including cellphones], becoming, manifest, and today, the most powerful, form, of Visual Arts, is that, associated, with, the Bantu Visual Arts, as mainly, seen, in North America. Visual Arts, that have, in many ways, given, birth, to the world, of, Ipods, and Sneakers, and the birth, of, a Popular Media, that has, its origins, with, the likes, of, Spike Lee and consiting, of, Ethnic Movies, Music Videos, Fashion/Sports wear, and lots, of Style/Attitude. A Popular Media, adopted, by, the White American Masses, and becoming, part, of American Popular Media, as with, Britney Spears perhaps. In many ways, this world [of Bantu Visual Arts], is best seen, in, the American Sports Entertainment world, and the, European Soccer world too [in all, worlds today, that, are responsible, for heavily, influencing, not only, the manners and ways of Socializing networks everywhere, but also, their, fashions, music, and even too, general lifestyles].

This world, was also seen, in, Central/Eastern Europe [from a, Syrian perspective], and was heavily, responsible, for the creation, of, Russias famed, Poster culture. Another reason too, why, Bantu based American Popular Media, is rather, popular, in Eastern Europe. A way of life too, depicted, by, Fyodor Dostoevsky, in his famed work, the, 'The Brothers Karamazov'.

In all, a way of Life, not, only structured, around, Cultural Ethnography, but, with each area, of Cultural Ethnography, being, associated, with, a Life Stage [as seen, in, the entry, about, Life Stages], and that in America, heavily associated, with, the Vices. And all this, been given, a, Structure, very much based, on, Personal Religion [as with, a form, of, Ancestor worship], and what, some call, Urban Development [as with, Real Estate/Skyscrapers, Entertainment, and, Communications]. In all, a whole existence rather hard, to escape from, if one, is, raised, around it [in many ways, the Visual Arts, can be, troubling, as with, Subconscious/Subliminal Programming, and the mediums, chosen, are of great, importance, as some, can heavily, subconsciously, program one; a good example, being, posters]. In South America, this way, of Life, was mainly seen, in, Brazil, and heavily, associated, with Capoeira groups, of different kinds [especially those though, made up, of, white practitioners] [Stories, of white Brazilian politicians, being, Capoeira players, really, have to do, with, white Capoeira groups, living, lives similar to that, of, a Marquis, and very much, based too, on, creating Jurisdictions].

In Central Europe/Asia [and even, Eastern Europe], Ethnic Divisions created by, Racialization by Cultural Ethnography, eventually, result, in the creation, of, ideologies, such as, Marxism, Communism, and even, Socialism too.
