[Leica] Communicatopn or Incommunication?

[lluisripollquerol at gmail.com (Lluis Ripoll)]

Ken,

I agree with your comment and I really like it, I think that a picture  
that transmit different questions or interpretations could be  
considered as an interesting image, thanks for your comments and for  
the idea " A WASTED SCIENCE ".

I remember when I was young, I think that the itelectual start to  
discuss about the INCOMMUNICATION was when Michelangelo Antonioni made  
his early films "La notte", "L'Eclipse", he described a different  
solitude, much more philosophical, maybe under the influence of  
Marcuse....? I'm not sure, but maybe is the first time that the people  
was interested to analyze the individual solitude in the society.

Cheers
Lluis
