The world obliges me to do something, so I create.
 Society wants me to belong, so I observe.
People force me to react, so I rebel.
They want me to stay still, so I paint.
Life requires me to live, but I am dying. . .

Should I kill myself or have a cup of coffee?

For those who like to follow me, my life, interested in my works and so on, it's a very good place to do that. In meanwhile all other blogs got lost, were deleted or forgotten, so from now, You can read some "news" here. Who am I You may ask. I'm a weird invention, that got stuck in this planet (by accident or not). I like to critise mankind, search for the justice and do not belong here. What else do I like? I like to discuss and cannot stand argumentation fallacies (but I use them sometimes on purpose as well, just the rest of world seems not to notice), I'm obsessed with the first perfect number and Alice in Wonderland Syndrome as well as works of mister Douglas Adams. I like to drink tea, but only with people I love or on special occasions (or on my own of course!), because Tea For Two is kind of an answer to the Universe.
I was going through my old interviews and found this quote from an interview I gave to Vociferous magazine long time ago "In philosophical point of view, everyone’s death is an apocalypse for him. You don’t know if world will continue without you, maybe this world is just a creation of your imagination." And I find that it is still very interesting to think about this.
What else? I'm excited about Dirk Gently (he is brilliant! If I would know someone like him in real life, that person would be my favourite person ever and I would do almost anything just for a possibility to have social interaction with him!). And it seems that his "holistic" methods are quite universal not only for detective investigations, but for a normal life as well. At least in my life quantum mechanics are working pretty well.
As well, I'm planning to visit Icon of Coil concert in the near future, continue to work on my old projects and start some new.

About humans: The only real intention humans do have is to lie and manipulate others. Sometimes it is hard to believe as people can be quite good trained (they like to hide this intention and even deny it), but sooner or later, it appears in one or another way.
So, like one person asked in his book, should I kill myself or have a cup of coffee?
What do You think, fellow earthlings?

Just that I do not drink coffee. . .

And something very different (my works from this spring).

"Why do I know more than other people? Why, in general, am I so clever? I have never pondered over questions that are not really questions. I have never wasted my strength. I have no experience, for instance, of actual religious difficulties..." (borrowed from Nietzsche)

Mit berührenden Bildern und Fotographien von schmerzhafter Schönheit, führt die Künstlerin den Betrachter in die Welt des Tierversuchs ein. Kombiniert mit informativen Textpassagen, enthüllt Milda Bandzaitè die Wahrheit hinter der klinischen Kälte des Tierversuchs: ethische Grausamkeit und wissenschaftliche Absurdität.

Wahnsinnig traurig und berührend - und andererseits bekommt man es gleich mit der Wut zu tun und ist schlichtweg schockiert.

Thanks to everyone who came to show their support and interest in my works. Even more thanks to those who shared their ideas, thoughts and many other things with me during that time. Special thanks to: Jonathan, Laima, Nicole, Michael and Jasmin.

Through my art I try to make people think about the absurdity of many things that were created by mankind. I would like people to think more about their actions by themselves and not to follow the mass blindly. If one chooses to do a wrong thing, it should be done by his/her own will and not just because the rest of humanity does the same wrong thing. I believe that art is one of the ways to make our world and the planet a better place.

Despite the fact that I always criticize mankind, I still kind of liked You, human beings.
I hope that people in Munich liked me a little bit as well and will be looking forward for the next time.

Eine sehr empfehlenswerte Ausstellung mit sehr berührender Kunst von Milda.

Experiments on animals are quite common and popular, but not many know about the common laboratory Homo Sapiens that is an ideal experimental animal for several reasons: abundance of literature published pertaining to them, ease of handling, high fertility rate and disease model for various disorders and diseases.
Someone pointed out, that it might be unethical to perform experiments on humans, but I disagree. We do not violate any rights of human beings, simply because they have none to violate at all. They are not morally self legislative and cannot possibly be members of any truly moral community  or possess rights. Although from time to time I raise those moral questions to myself as well.

There is no harm (only ethics) involved in behaviour studies, but how about studies for medicines, cancer and others? Humans have to be killed for various reasons during those experiments, including the collection of blood or tissues, disposal at the end of an experiment, especially where humans are experiencing pain which cannot be alleviated. It is believed by some scientists that humans are one of the relatively few species to have sufficient self-awareness to recognize themselves in a mirror. Although mirror test really cannot be a reliable source for measuring consciousness. 22 years I observed human race and learned a lot about them. I can tell that there is no big difference between human’s and sheep’s mental abilities.
It is easy to motivate humans during experiments; researches showed that the primary motivators and stimulators are food, easy entertainment toys (like TV) and sexual intercourse. You, human beings, are all the same. But I still find it interesting to observe and experiment on You.


So, thank You for reading and being interested in my art!

    AIWS

    AIWS is a strange invention in this planet - a machine with a brush, pen and camera in its hands. It just observes and pictures the sad and cruel reality of everyday life. If You do not get it, do not worry too much, it just means that You are average. But of course You are more than welcome to read, think about and even share Your very important thoughts. Just remember: the majority of humanity does not interest AIWS at all, so please, do not feel offended. It's not You, just Your mediocrity.
