The Big Brother isn’t a person as it turns out, it’s the collective consciousness that watches us. […] It’s not that living in public is going to be impose on us. We’re going to be conditioned to ask for it.
✖ Via Josh Harris has he appeared in Errol Morris’ series First Person (season2, episode 01).
“The 3rd millenium has been ushered into existence. No apocalypse. No Four Horsemen. No en to the world. No nothing. Nevertheless, Josh Harris, Internet entrepreneur and aspiring artist has decided that the 2nd coming is at hand. And “the new Messiah” is none other than Gilligan, that’s right, the Gilligan, from Gilligan’s Island. No, not Bob Denver, that actor playing Gilligan. He is but an avatar or the messianic life force, which is Gilligan himself. For Harris, life is a sad tug-of-war between those who control reality and those controlled by it. The weapon is media. And Harris, in an all-out onslaught on the world, has decided to make his own torpid existence into a new religion.” (errolmorris.com)
