Social Studies

Social Studies - David Byrne[00:00:00]

I thought that if I ate the food[00:00:36]

Of the area I was visiting[00:00:38]

That I might assimilate the point[00:00:41]

Of view of the people there[00:00:43]

As if the point of view was somehow in the food[00:00:45]

So I would make no choices myself[00:00:54]

Regarding what food I ate[00:00:57]

I would simply follow the examples[00:01:02]

Of those around me[00:01:06]

I would study menus very carefully[00:01:11]

Making note of important differences and similarities[00:01:16]

When shopping at the supermarket[00:01:29]

I felt a great desire to walk off[00:01:33]

With someone else's groceries[00:01:35]

So I could study them at length[00:01:38]

And study their effects on me[00:01:42]

As though if I ate their groceries[00:01:46]

I would become that person until[00:01:51]

I finished their groceries[00:01:55]

And we might find ourselves going to the same places[00:02:04]

Running into one another at the[00:02:09]

Movies or in a shopping mall[00:02:10]

Reading the same books watching[00:02:14]

The same TV programs[00:02:18]

Wearing the same clothes traveling[00:02:22]

To the same places[00:02:26]

And taking the same pictures getting[00:02:28]

Sick at the same time[00:02:32]

And getting well again simultaneously[00:02:35]

Finding ourselves attracted to the same people[00:02:39]

Working at the same job and[00:02:44]

Making the same amount of money[00:02:47]

Living identical lives as long as the groceries lasted[00:02:50]
