I. Undercover Slut: White whore conspiracy
(R-rated)
II. How the Sold-out younger art generation can fight back the bullshit
At ADP, we don’t really have a problem with the art publicity & propaganda system in capitalism. We don’t really mind art poncing either. But not when a percentage of real expat victims have been a publicity by-product in the UAE, the mega-diamond octopus. Ethical cultural marketing, arts educational partnering, media relations and journalistic processing, please. Thank you ’O’ for allowing us to feature your voice here, with permissions—when many in the art world can’t speak out, the tentacles multiplying, moving further across the art seas, tightening their grip in crashing economies, daily...

Undercover Slut. White whore conspiracy.
Nobody knows who I’m gonna shoot
Nobody knows where I’m gonna hide
Nobody knows if I’ll ever show up
Nobody knows what I’m gonna write
Not even my spokesperson
Just in case you want me to…
Nothing will ever match…
Reality and quality of the WHITE lyrics
Sick shit, WHITE trash, deep shit
We all know where you’re gonna crash
You don’t know what I’m gonna say
You don’t know who I’m gonna trash
You don’t know what I’m gonna drop
You don’t know where you’re gonna crash
I will never be what we want me to…
Don’t ever expect me to…
I never wanted to please you too
Every time you want me to—
FUCK you!
Every time you want me to—
FUCK you!
Nothing will ever match…

Sick chic, sick shit, hit list
Bullshit, blacklist, hit list
Nothing will ever match…

Perhaps some of the profits from Western cultural marketing from the UAE could be allocated to help some publicity victims get out?
A starting point into this situation...
In vid above, detained at airport for possession of Melatonin, a legal, jet lag tablet sold over-the-counter worldwide, including in Dubai. (The clueless ADP editor was ready to get on a plane with a little container of 625 tablets of Melatonin and illegal over-the-counter drugs, thinking the destination okay as so many "leading" Western art/design and academic brands were piling in, also doing publicity-oriented deals in Europe and America, and there were so many shiny publicity outputs in Western media without any real context. Thanks.)
The result reported in the news vid? Real-life, creative industries shock rock—Strip search, urine samples, signed confession in Arabic—a language he doesn’t understand—with no access to a translator, promise of immediate deportation, but no.
Instead, more fun in the sun, including seven weeks in Al-Wathba prison, with reports of executions and lashings at that site, and threat of a minimum four-year prison sentence. Over USD$100,000 spent later on legal, this and an international publicity campaign finally got him out. How much cash and publicity could you organize right now?
Growing number of other foreigners detained, some for many years... again, just a starting point...

II. How the Sold-out younger art generation can fight back the bullshit (Read the context above)
A small intervention for the Sold-out younger art generation:
Art Design Publicity. Google intervention, natural search ranking result (26 October 2009). SEO art activism, competing against millions spent on art, design and fookin publicity.
Take the power back:
Young artists—Learn critical media, marketing/communications—
and entrepreneurship,
so you’ll have more choices.
Don’t allow your Western art/design/creative industries brand
to be publicized—
to attract more people to come join the party
until positive change—and independent monitoring—
has taken place.
And don’t publish easy-to-shape publicity without any context—designed to bypass editorial and make its way into print.
