Gagosian at Frieze Los Angeles Online

July 23, 2021

FRIEZE LOS ANGELES ONLINE Chris Burden

July 27–August 1, 2021 __________ Gagosian is pleased to participate in the inaugural Los Angeles edition of Frieze Viewing Room with a survey of works by Chris Burden (1946–2015). The works will be available simultaneously on the Gagosian website and in the Frieze Viewing Room, accessible at viewingroom.frieze.com. Ranging from ink-on-paper drawings to monumental site-specific sculptures, the presentation commemorates Burden’s significant career and body of work on what would have been the milestone of his seventy-fifth year. A radical figure with a fierce political consciousness, Burden possessed a unique ability to wield conceptual art as a tool for sociopolitical change. Dealing in incisive metaphors for the power dynamics of industry and institution, his work remains relevant—perhaps even more so than before—in today’s world. Burden first gained notoriety using his body as his medium. In his performance work Shoot (1971), he filmed himself being shot in the arm at close range—a searing commentary on the dangerous entanglement between media depictions of gun-toting machismo and the very real violence of the Vietnam War. He documented twenty-three of his early performances in Chris Burden Deluxe Photo Book 1971–73 (1974), a unique self-published artist’s book that adds vital commentary and context to his pioneering and often extreme performances. Burden continued to ground his works in contemporaneous issues throughout his career; his installation of thirty larger-than-life police outfits in L.A.P.D. Uniforms (1993)—one of which is included in this presentation—is a looming reminder of the persistent national crises of racial discrimination and police brutality. America’s Darker Moments (1994) restages five of the country’s twentieth-century atrocities—including the bombing of Hiroshima and the Kent State massacre—using detailed lead figurines made in the style of antique toy soldiers. By presenting these scenes in a vitrine, Burden equates the act of scrutiny with the governmental abuse of power that sparked the events he portrays. In the late 1970s, Burden began working extensively in large-scale sculpture, marrying his interests in architecture and engineering with his meditations on the strictures of the urban world. Dreamer’s Folly (2010) stands in stark contrast with the consciously aggressive aura of his early performances. Three white cast-iron ornamental gazebos—seemingly plucked from a traditional English garden—are draped with intricate lace, forming a single whimsical structure that remains rooted in history. With its exploration of the relationship between the body and public space, the work recalls Urban Light (2008), Burden’s site-specific installation of over two hundred antique streetlamps at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art that has become a landmark for the city as a whole. The Hidden Force (1995)—a little-known sculptural installation originally commissioned by the Washington State Arts Commission in 1993 for the now-demolished McNeil Island Corrections Center—will be re-created for the first time by the Burden Estate. For the original work, Burden installed three shallow circular concrete pools in a green space near the penitentiary’s cellblocks. Each pool was equipped with a floating elliptical object containing a magnet at one end, effectively creating a trio of outsize compasses that point north. Visually understated yet powerfully symbolic in its purpose and design, the work hints at the unseen forces that guide individuals toward the “right way. ”The presentation anticipates the publication of Poetic Practical: The Unrealized Work of Chris Burden, a comprehensive illustrated volume published by Gagosian that will catalogue Burden’s various unfinished works of art. Chris Burden was born in 1946 in Boston, and died in 2015 in Topanga, California. Collections include the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago; Museum of Modern Art, New York; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Instituto Inhotim, Brumadinho, Brazil; Tate, London; Museum of Applied Arts, Vienna; and 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, Kanazawa, Japan. Exhibitions include A Twenty-Year Survey, Orange County Museum of Art, Newport Beach, CA (1988, traveled to Carnegie Mellon University Art Gallery, Pittsburgh; and Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, through 1989); When Robots Rule: The Two-Minute Airplane Factory, Tate Britain, London (1999); Tower of Power, Museum Moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig Wien, Vienna (2002); Beam Drop Antwerp, Middelheim Museum, Antwerp, Belgium (2009); Three Ghost Ships, Portland Art Museum, OR (2011–12); Extreme Measures, New Museum, New York (2013–14); The Master Builder, Rose Art Museum, Brandeis University, Waltham, MA (2014); and Ode to Santos Dumont, Los Angeles County Museum of Art (2015). _____ Chris Burden, The Hidden Force, 1995, concrete, aluminum, magnets, and water, in 3 parts, each: 36 × 108 × 108 inches (91.4 × 274.3 × 274.3 cm), installation view, McNeil Island Corrections Center, Washington (commissioned by the Washington State Arts Commission in 1993, decommissioned in 2011) © Chris Burden/Licensed by the Chris Burden Estate and Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York

[CN] Kiro’s R&S - Youthhood (Eng Translation)

🍒This R&S (少年时代) was part of the Dream Heart Lake event which will unlikely come to EN🍒

Cancelled Kiro’s R&S:

> top experimental subject (by another user)

> stunning young idol

> youthhood ♡

> heaven’s home for children (by another user)

[ Chapter 1]

Kiro sits on the highest flight of steps of TKTS. With the scorching sun directly overhead, he’s queuing to purchase discounted tickets to “Wicked” with Pei En.

TKTS, which sells discounted tickets, is located in the bustling Times Square in New York, USA. Behind it is the NASDAQ screen, and on both sides are shops selling Disney products and all sorts of fast fashion brands. The buildings in front and in the surroundings have gigantic, neat and pretty advertisements.

Among them, a gigantic “The Avengers” poster above the subway is the most attention grabbing.

This is a representation of the era. It’s a symbol of the 20th century, and is also similar to the cyberpunk world of “Blade Runner”.

“I’ve got the tickets!”

Pei En waves the two tickets to “Wicked” in his hand. Pei En is the guitarist in his band. Kiro’s agency formed a band for him, and most of the band members are French locals. Only Pei En is of mixed blood like Kiro - a child from a Jew and an Asian.

“If the performance had gone smoothly, we would have reached earlier!”

They have a final performance in New York as part of their tour, and would have to leave after, rushing to Los Angeles, California.

“This time, I’m going to hide the donuts in an even more secret location so the person who inspects the tickets wouldn’t discover them!”

While Kiro says this, he finishes the donut in his hand.

Donuts from Dunkin’ Donuts are very sticky. Only Kiro can treat such things as delicacies.

His ringtone sounds. With a glance at the number on the screen, he hangs up immediately. Pei En is very curious to know who the caller is. He has expressed curiosity regarding everything involving Kiro, and Kiro knows why.

“Is it that fellow Lawrence again?” Pei En asks. Lawrence is the agent of their band.

“Nope, but it’s definitely a harassment call.”

“It should be.”

Pei En seems to be a carbon copy of Kiro. Aside from his hair not being golden coloured, he is extremely similar to Kiro in terms of bubbliness and openness, and how simple-minded he is.

[ Chapter 2 ]

After purchasing the tickets, both of them return to the agency. Lawrence is at the side, looking through the program booklet for their performance tonight. Lawrence is overwhelmingly ambitious. He won’t give up until he bags a Grammy Award for the band.

“Did you know? Another group of strange people came to look for you again.”

The moment Lawrence sees Kiro, he pulls the latter to a corner. Pei En curiously watches on.

“What kind of people did you provoke? They look like they shouldn’t be trifled with.”

Kiro shakes his head. “What do you mean by ‘they’? Fans?”

When Lawrence sees the innocent and harmless expression on Kiro’s face again, he knows that his questions wouldn’t get him anywhere. Kiro always manages to find ways to conceal himself.

“How’s the preparation for the concert? You’re the lead singer, and all the girls are flocking here for you!”

“I’ll definitely perform even better than usual!”

Kiro looks to be full of zest and in high spirits. He genuinely loves being on stage, and loves how he radiates brilliance. Who doesn’t like seeing fans go into a frenzy over them and be captivated by them? It enables Kiro to fully feel that he is still living on this earth. And that on this earth, there are still so many people who like him...

“I’m guessing you went to buy a souvenir again today.”

Lawrence comes to such a conclusion after glancing at Kiro’s bag. Kiro has a hobby - to buy some souvenirs wherever he goes, whenever convenient.

From Paris to Munich, Zurich to Stockholm, Vancouver to Montreal - wherever he goes on tour, he would buy local fridge magnets and postcards, and he would always buy two sets.

He wants to collect these things, so if a day comes when he can meet her again, he would show them to her, and say:

“Look! This world is so beautiful, and you no longer have to be afraid.”

But till now, he has yet to find her. He remembers her eyes. One day, he will find her in a vast sea of people.

“Did you know that the agency from China has sent someone to negotiate with us? They want you to sign on with them, and the amount they’re giving you is basically--”

Lawrence’s tone is exaggerated. “How are people in China so wealthy!”

“What if I said that I wanted to go to China?”

“Hey, buddy, the band can’t do without you.”

“Haha, Pei En is much more outstanding than I am.”

At this point, Pei En is still watching them. Kiro understands him too well. He’s much too curious. Also, he’s only curious about Kiro, which could very quickly expose Kiro’s hidden identity.

Did that group of people actually send Pei En to monitor him...

He kind of underestimates Pei En though.

“But that fellow is always so absent-minded. God knows what he’s thinking about.”

[ Chapter Three ]

Americans enjoy overstating things. At one moment, they go “only God knows...”, and at another moment, they go “for the sake of God...”. Some people can’t stand it, but Kiro finds it very interesting.

Very quickly, Kiro begins rehearsing with the band. His style of singing changes a lot. When they were in Europe, they mostly played rock music. When they reached America, they started playing country or jazz music.

Kiro likes the southern accent of the keyboardist from California. But Lawrence prohibits it. “The southern accent is the most crude and coarse form of English! Why can’t you learn the way the British speak?”

Lawrence has always favoured people who can speak eloquent British English - to him, only such people are refined and elegant. But Kiro grew up in France. When he first started learning English, he tended to pronounce “ch” as “sh”. Actually, French is genuinely elegant and pleasant to listen to. And English tinged with a slight French accent can make one absorbed in it.

The concert ended smoothly.

The fans are cheering in a frenzy outside, wanting them to perform one more song. But the agent has already told them to leave.

Pei En and Kiro take a car and rush to the theatre to watch “Wicked”. This is the final Broadway show they want to watch, and it was a shame that Kiro didn't get to watch the well-known Hamilton.

At the entrance, that group of fellows stopped him again.

The person standing at the forefront is a Caucasian woman. She walks up to Kiro elegantly and greets him, signalling for the person next to her to bring Pei En away.

“I’ve already given you a response through e-mail, and I hope you won’t disturb me again.”

The Caucasian woman proceeds as usual, showing him an FBI ID.

Kiro grumbles in his heart.

“I swear I won’t disclose the contents of ‘The Avengers’. Even though I’ve already watched it on my laptop, I’ll definitely watch it again in the cinema!”

The Caucasian woman laughs.

“Mr Kiro, you’re very humorous. Even though we know that apart from Disney, you’ve also hacked into Universal Studios and Paramount Pictures, we’re not here to talk about this.”

She continues: “KEY - that’s you, isn’t it?”

[ Chapter 4 ]

Kiro doesn’t respond, his eyes widening as he glances around.

“In order to track down your IP address, we had to destroy four computers.”

“Are you looking for me to make compensation for the computers?”

“Mr Kiro. Ten years ago, you expended no effort to hack into our computers, and left behind a string of mysterious characters.”

The Caucasian woman smiles at him amiably. Kiro’s expression grows serious. Ten years ago, that KEY who hacked into their organisation wasn’t him...

“Ten years later, you’re back again. I think you're trying to provoke us.”

“I don’t have such an intention.”

“Whether or not you do, we can’t let you continue this way. Mr Kiro, this is a serious issue. We are now sending you a sincere invitation, and we hope to work together to do more noble things.”

Kiro is silent. He had previously found a clue leading to his own master. Finding out that he had entered the American FBI website and left behind a series of symbols - he thinks this is message to him from his master. As such, he entered it as well, and found that series of symbols, but until now hasn’t been able to decipher it.

It’s a series of very strange symbols, reminiscent of a new language formed using Latin and Roman symbols. He managed to decipher it a little, and it appears that the series of symbols seem to be pointing him to a location.

And the FBI had found him quickly, sending him an e-mail. It was a solemn reminder that if he was unwilling to be enlisted by them, he would lose his rights to use a computer forever.

“You’ve stated these things clearly in the e-mail, and I’ve already replied.”

“I don't think you have considered the severity of this matter. Mr Kiro, we can detain you.”

"In that case, I’ll just sing in jail then!”

Seeing the displeased look on the Caucasian woman’s face, Kiro continues smiling simple-mindedly.

“I hope you wouldn’t regret this in the future.” The Caucasian woman leaves a final statement that is often found in a script for a classic villain. She leaves with the large group of people.

Pei En walks over frantically, and Kiro walks towards him as well.

“Tell them that I’ve met with some trouble, and will need to leave America immediately.”

Pei En pretends to be puzzled.

“You understand the meaning in my words, don’t you?”

For the first time, Kiro looks at him seriously. During serious moments, he doesn’t smile.

“Where do you plan to go? We can send you to Russia.”

Pei En is no longer smiling. His expression changes, along with his entire aura.

As expected, Pei En is much too similar to him. If Kiro were to leave the band, Pei En could take over his position as the lead singer, and that group of people had considered this fact too.

[ Chapter 5 ]

The face of the little girl surfaces in Kiro’s mind again.

The girl is lying with him, and is all smiles as she looks at him.

“Don’t be afraid. When I’m out, I’ll buy you donuts, okay?”

The girl draws the shape of a donut in the air.

Back then, Kiro didn’t speak. He just stared at the ceiling in a dazed state.

“Don’t worry that I won’t have enough money. My dad will give it to me.”

Kiro remains wordless, quietly listening to the little girl speak.

The little girl struggles to pull on his hand.

Their fingers lace together, the warmth from her palm gradually coursing into Kiro’s heart.

“Don’t be afraid. I’ll protect you.”

Kiro turns to look at her - to look at her determined brown eyes, to look at how the corners of her lips angle upwards. Kiro slowly learns how to curl the corners of his lips from her. It’s the first smile to appear on his face.

Suddenly, the door is flung open. A group of people wearing doctor’s coats enter and drag him away. The little girl watches him in a daze, and he stares back at her. They agreed to go out to have donuts - can they still eat them?

“I want to return to China.”

Pei En shakes his head, alarm in his eyes. “Why? There’s so much freedom here, and I’m the only one who monitors you. And I’m inclined to trust you more now. You won’t betray us.”

“No... I still want to go back.”

Not just for the little girl. The symbols left behind by his master seem to point to a certain location in China... Where exactly is it? And why did he leave the symbols with the FBI? Could it be the place he’s hiding at right now?

No matter what, he wants to solve this riddle.

“All right. I’ll handle it for you as soon as I can. I think you’d have to use a false identity this time.”

“As long as everything goes smoothly, it’s fine.”

“Don’t worry, there’s nothing they can’t do.”

He wants to wait till he returns to China before telling Lawrence about what happened. Lawrence will definitely be extremely frantic. After all, he’s been following Kiro ever since he debuted in France.

And Pei En will definitely be happy. He can finally take over Kiro and become the favourite member of the group, and obtain love from the fans.

Kiro is someone who doesn’t lack love. But he always subconsciously wishes that he could obtain even more love. More and more...

[ Chapter 6 ]

Before Kiro retuned, Pei En gave him materials pertaining to the agency in China.

“Your agent is called Savin. He doesn’t seem as eager for instant success and quick profits as Lawrence. Mr Savin is a very amiable person, and you should be very happy interacting with him.”

“Is he one of your people?”

“I don’t know.”

“You really don’t know?”

Pei En shakes his head. “I rank too low, so I don’t have the right to ask. I’m just an elementary spy.”

Kiro nods, taking his luggage and preparing to leave. He’ll set things straight eventually.

“Kiro, I don’t think you’re transparent. They say that what’s in your heart is easy to guess, which is why they put me by your side. But I think they have underestimated you.”

Kiro looks at Pei En’s troubled eyes, then showcases his signature sunny smile.

“How can that be? Do you want a postcard? When I get to China, I’ll mail you one. I also want to mail them to Lawrence and the members from the band. Treat it as an apology.”

Like Kiro, Pei En showcases a sunny smile. “In that case, we’ll wait for your news. You’ll definitely be at the height of popularity in China.”

“Let’s work hard together.”

“Yes!”

After parting with Pei En, who has been with together with him from morning to night for so long, Kiro lifts his luggage and embarks on an unknown journey.

As what Pei En said, he isn’t transparent. His brilliant smile conceals something underneath, just as the brilliant sun shrouds darkness underneath.

Hidden in the depths of his secrets are things even darkness doesn’t know of. If darkness had a mind of its own, it might think it doesn’t fit with this pure and simple youth.

Just as how everyone think he’s a simple, innocent Kiro, the sunlight casted on him can pierce through him completely, the rays of light refracting onto the floor.

Actually, since a very long time ago, he was no longer a youth...

But, for her sake, he's willing to become a youth again.

“Don’t be afraid, I’ll protect you.”

He once again recalls what the girl said to him.

“This time, I’ll be the one protecting you.” Kiro says excitedly. He stands outside the JFK Airport, his eyes staring directly at the sun.

“I’ll find you, and protect you. I even have a mountain of souvenirs stored in my luggage. I’ll give them all to you. And my purest heart - I’ll give it to you too!”

Rare earth metals at the heart of China's rivalry with US, Europe

A picture taken in 2012 reveals a rare earth refinery near Baotou, China, the nation controling the international mining and refining of the minerals.

What if China were to cut off the United States and Europe from access to rare minerals that are vital to electrical cars, wind turbines and drones?

At a time of regular geopolitical friction amongst those 3 powers, Washington and Brussels wish to prevent this circumstance by buying the market for 17 minerals with distinct residential or commercial properties that today are mainly drawn out and improved in China.

“The expected exponential growth in demand for minerals that are linked to clean energy is putting more pressure on US and Europe to take a closer look at where the vulnerabilities are and the concrete steps these governments can take,” stated Jane Nakano, a senior fellow at the Washington-based Center for Strategic and International Studies.

In 2019, the United States imported 80 percent of its rare earth minerals from China, the US Geological Survey states.

The European Union gets 98 percent of its supply from China, the European Commission stated in 2015.

Amid the shift to green energy in which rare earth minerals make certain to contribute, China’s market supremacy suffices to sound an alarm in western capitals.

Cars and turbines

Rare earth minerals with names like neodymium, praseodymium and dysprosium are essential to the manufacture of magnets utilized in markets of the future like wind turbines and electrical cars and trucks. And they are currently present in durable goods such as smart devices, computer system screens and telescopic lenses.

Others have more conventional usages, like cerium for glass polishing and lanthanum for vehicle drivers or optical lenses.

This week the US Senate passed a law intended at enhancing American competitiveness that consists of arrangements to enhance crucial minerals supply chains, following a comparable executive order released by President Joe Biden in February.

Washington intends to increase production and processing of rare earths and lithium, another essential mineral element, while “working with allies and partners to increase sustainable global supply and reduce reliance on geopolitical competitors,” Deputy Director of the National Economic Council Sameera Fazili stated Tuesday.

Boosting US production

The finest wish for improving American production can be discovered at the Mountain Pass mine in California.

Once one of the significant gamers in the sector, the my own suffered as China increased and consumed its market share, helped by Beijing’s heavy federal government aids.

MP Materials relaunched the mine in 2017 and intends to make it a sign of America’s commercial renewal, stating the concentration of rare earths at its website is one of the world’s biggest and highest-grade rare earth deposits, with soil concentrations of 7 percent versus 0.1 to 4 percent in other places.

The business’s goal is to separate rare earth minerals from each other by means of a chemical procedure, and after that by 2025 manufacture the magnets that market utilizes—as market-leading Chinese companies presently do.

The job was supported by the US federal government, while a Chinese company is a minority investor.

Elsewhere, Australian business Lynas has actually won numerous agreements in the United States, consisting of an ore refinery in Texas for the military that was supported by the Defense Department.

Complications for Europe

In Europe, Bernd Schafer, CEO and Managing Director of rare earth mineral consortium Eit Raw Materials, stated this month that an “action plan” will quickly exist to the European Commission on how to increase production.

Europe, nevertheless, deals with a more complex course to attaining this objective, stated David Merriman, an expert in batteries and electrical cars and trucks for London-based consultancy Roskill.

“Europe is expected to rely on importing raw materials or semi-processed materials and become more a processing base or recycling base,” he stated.

China is anticipated to stay dominant for a long time to come, however Schafer stated that if recycling is scaled up, “20 to 30 percent of Europe’s rare earth magnet needs by 2030 could be sourced domestically in the EU from literally zero today.”

The desire to speed up rare earth production comes amidst a lack of semiconductors, which are important for the computing and automobile markets and mainly made in Asia.

The shortage “has caused global manufacturers to think about their supply chain in a new way, and think about vulnerabilities,” a spokesperson for MP Materials stated, including that numerous European automobile and wind power companies are currently in contact with the business.

Biden’s wishes for rare earth self-reliance at least a years away

This principle has always worked well in magic. Nowadays it is crucial to know the website of a highly skilled spellcaster, since the internet is flooded with websites run by pseudo-magicians. One of such websites is Muchindu , so if you have the courage to use it, you will be lucky enough to have the most powerful spellcaster Muchindu casting a binding spell for you. What Love Binding Spells Are And When They Are Cast Love binding spells that work are cast on many occasions such as: - Generally the binding spell is used as an all-purpose magic technique for establishing relationships. - Also, spells of binding help reestablish lost love connections. - Witches and spellcasters can use binding rituals of this quite broad category to help you find someone you’ve never met and only seen in your fantasies. - It is used as an effective invisible magnet to draw the attention of the person of your choosing. However, it must be a member of your community rather than a celebrity or an actor. - Binding spells can also help you improve communication, harmony, and lessen the frequency and intensity of jealousy fits. About The Price And Timing of Binding Spells For Love Spellcaster MUCHINDU does not offer fixed prices and due dates for his binding spell for lovers (see the link above). That is something he can’t know, even though he knows far more than the ordinary man. Your life situation may be as simple as this: you like someone, they like you and all you need to do is give them some courage to take the first step while enhancing their feelings. The quickest and easiest love spells might be of assistance in this situation. Real spellcasters don’t charge their clients more for being more experienced. They charge a reasonable amount for the magic they perform. Therefore, quick witchcraft that takes less than a week or two to complete will be quite inexpensive. Example of A Complicated Relationship And A Very Complicated Love Binding Spell Imagine yet another situation where someone you love is not noticing you. Imagine that he doesn’t like you as a person or future spouse, or he already has somebody he loves and cares about. Or maybe he’s with her because she is good for his business somehow or she can help him move up the career ladder. A simple binding love spell won’t work in this case. Furthermore, even traditional “love rituals and binding spells suiting a wide variety of purposes” will be ineffective. Not only do you have to entirely alter a man’s preferences and worldview, but you also have to end his relationship in order to make him yours and break the relationship in such a way that nobody wants to go back. This task is challenging, especially if it seeks to develop a connection as well as to protect your karma. When Even A Simple Ritual Of Binding Ruins A Client’s Karma If karma were a brochure, it would contain just a few brief pages: - You must not act evilly and to bear evil. - You should cherish your inner light. - You and the binding spell caster are the only people who are permitted to access the page where your specific karmic tasks are listed. That is, if you request that they research your karma. People invented courts and police to punish offenders because they had little faith in karma. But even those who have been found guilty of a crime must endure the dreadful torments of karma while serving their sentences in jail. If you commit any evil with the aid of prohibited binding spells, you do not go to jail, but still become a criminal. Karma will use all of its resources to make you pay for this crime. Committed to Making Magic Binding Lovers the Safest Every person is in charge of their own fate. Unfortunately, not everyone is able to protect themselves against hasty decisions and avoid mistakes. Since you hardly know what real magic is, you might easily get into serious problems. Ordering a binding ritual frequently (see the reviews) becomes the catalyst for a multi-year run of bad misfortunes. To avoid this, you should seek for the most powerful binding spellcasters, who have earned the respect of the most reliable websites by their amazing work. If you work with spellcaster & Witch Doctor MUCHINDU , rest assured that you have karmic protection, and the best spellcaster and his love spells won’t cause any harm to you, the person you love and your family members. Order Spells To Make Him Fall In Love With You From The Best Professional Spellcaster Muchindu When a client rushes into a powerful love spellcaster’s office or shouts “make him love me spell!” right away during an online discussion, he or she is kindly stopped by the spellcaster. An experienced professional is sure that a relationship doesn’t need to be pushed, even if you are planning just a brief affair and hoping to end it by September. Moreover, there is no need to rush into marriage. Imagine the spellcaster starts working on your case with a tarot reading. He advises you on your specific choice for husband or lover, and how your relationship will impact your health, social and material existence. When we order tarot readings, we all hope to receive only favorable signs. Furthermore, we believe that casting a love spell will make us feel good. There is no need to rush when ordering binding magic, though, for life is unpredictable and there are always 99 unpleasant outcomes for every joyful one. How The Best Love Spell Casters Will Work With You Personally True love spell casters are not butchers or hired laborers. They do not charge by the hour or rate their performance according on how quickly the binding ritual is completed. They are your most devoted protectors. They are someone who have not only foretold your fortune for many years, but also understand how to prevent unfavorable forecasts. The best white and black spell casters adhere to this philosophy. Not only do they assist you in love matters but also provide you with important recommendations. And those who follow them are able to change their fate. Although it’s unpleasant to admit, five out of ten relationships come to us as punishment. And four out of every ten of these relationships end badly for us due to our misguided perceptions of the lover. Spellcaster Muchindu guarantees that 10 out of ten of his clients find happiness with his love binding spells, which can be confirmed by tens of thousands of people he has already aided. False Reality Expectations After Using A Love Spell That Work Immediately You are not just kept in the dark about karma. Since you have no prior knowledge of a wiccan binding spell, you can order it, placing yourself in serious danger. And the witch’s silence in this situation becomes equal to committing a crime. However, this is far from the only crime committed by those who call themselves witches. Selling love spells that work fast is one of the most common crimes they commit. Why is that so? In this context, the term ‘fast’ is false. Imagine that a binding ritual is performed immediately after your enter the witch’s office, but transfer this scenario into a different setting. For instance, you have chest pain and come to a doctor, and the latter performs surgery on you without conducting any tests or exams. So, don’t expect a different outcome from binding love spells with photos that work fast, because in magic, everything carried out hastily or recklessly always results in a fateful disaster. ‘Odd’ Unwritten and Unspeakable Binding Witchcraft Silence surrounds not just easy binding spells such as, for example, a simple binding spell. Witches also avoid writing about homosexual magic spells, either because they deny their existence or because they think no one could ever request one. However, between 10 and 18% of males globally identify as gay, and lesbians have approximately the same statistics. So, it’s unclear, why there is almost no information about gay spells. Spellcaster Muchindu says it’s because even among his most esteemed colleagues only a select handful engage in gay spells. Almost all of them would employ voodoo binding love spells in this case. Spellcaster Muchindu , who is perfectly capable of casting such love spells, is completely sure that traditional magic is more effective. It offers spells that cultivates real love leading to a strong and lasting relationship filled with mutual care, respect, and kindness. So order it and enjoy the consistency and purity of your feelings. Why Can’t A Spell To Bring Back Lover Be A Simple Ritual You can see it for yourself by answering some the questions about your ex. You’re going to order bring lover back spells knowing the following: - Your ex is unable to forgive you. - He has blocked your phone number and social media profiles. - You did everything you could to hurt him when you broke up. - You are responsible for the breakup, and this guilt is difficult to forgive or forget about. - Your ex is happy in the new relationship. - He is happy without you. - You are less accomplished than him. On top of that, you are not as attractive as you used to be and your new job is less prestigious. Simple binding spells will make your ex notice you, be happy for you, or recall what drove him away in the first place but they can’t revive love. Using Voodoo Doll Spells For Love Instead of Safe and Proven Traditional Spells Speaking of mutual feelings, we build a relationship where the partners stay together not because they have to but because they want to and care about each other. However, there is a way to win your spouse back without arousing feelings in him. It is voodoo for love, performed to take away a man’s ability to control their life. When they are told “Remember” using hoodoo binding spells, they do so and think of you. They are told “Come back”, and they do it. They are commanded “Stay nearby”, and they don’t leave. Similar incidents frequently occur in unsettling nightmares from which it is hard to wake up. Such spells are very detrimental to karma, according to spellcaster Muchindu . However, there are far more dangerous love spells that also belong to voodoo love binding spells – obsession spells, as they call them. What Disappoints Most People About Effective Obsession Spells The reasoning makes sense: by ordering the strongest spell, one anticipates obtaining a favorable outcome. However, obsession spells frequently render all of your calculations useless. You are with the target. He left his wife for you, moved into a new house with you, and gave you access to his bank accounts, but he is unable to give you anything more than that. He is not in love with you. As a woman or a witty conversationalist, you don’t appeal to him. To him, you are like that rock that the gods bind people to as punishment. Being unable to alter fate (and under the influence of a powerful binding love spell, having no such desire), the miserable lover feels like a rower on the galleries. The only difference is that the rower has a contract that stipulates the date when he is exempt from their torturous labor. The victim of obsession spells, on the opposite, has no release date specified. Immediately Leave A Website Offering Obsession Spells With Pictures We do not advise against voodoo picture spells. They may be completed faster than traditional binding spells and are more powerful and effective. What we advise is to consider all the risks before placing an order, and only then get in touch with the love spellcaster. Unfortunately, voodoo shamans rarely offer fortune telling. They can either respond positively or negatively to a query using the witchcraft technique they have access to. “Will I be happy?” you ask – “Yes or no,” will be the only answer you get. Don’t try to get any more tips from them. After determining that casting another love spell is not the best option for you, take some time to leave the shamanic site and seek out a powerful fortune teller The most accurate predictions available today come from tarot reading. It reveals the outcome of witchcraft by days and individual events. Tarot reading can also tell you how the person of interest would behave when in a state of obsession. How and When to Escape Dark Witchcraft Spells One good thing about this joyless witchcraft is that it eventually comes to an end. Love spells that torture the target are typically cast by weak witches, hence they don’t last long. However, a person may be held captive for five to seven years if specific action amulets are purchased and if the customer visits the witch to repeat the binding spell on a regular basis. If you’re considering using black magic to make someone fall in love with you because you’re already enthusiastic about the prospect of having them as yours for a similar length of time, please, slow down. You’ll have to endure two years of karmic redemption for every year that someone else is held captive. Such redemption comes via the loss of luck, beauty, wealth, health, and friends. Spellcaster Muchindu says that in order to avoid the worst, he will help you to choose the world’s most powerful love spell in existence. This spell will both draw your loved one to you and maintain the joyful flow of your life. What Are The Attributes Of The Most Powerful Love Spell In The World? - They are performed only by the best love spell casters. - Before starting, the master always discusses potential risks in addition to guarantees. - You are always informed of the status of the magical work. - You will get instructions on how to interact with the target of the love spell in the future. - After you obtain your desired outcome, the spellcasters remain in touch and keep an eye on you. - You may get in touch with the spellcaster at any time to share your thoughts or to discuss any new aspirations. - You are usually offered amulets that come in a variety of forms. They can prevent relationships from ending due to internal or external factors and assist in maintaining a high intensity of feelings within the marriage. Fascinating Discussion About Spells For Marriage Proposals A lot of women are already experiencing marriage-related frustration when their beloved finally proposes to them. Some are disappointed with the ring, while yet others dislike the manner in which it is done. In fact, they encounter so many unpleasant surprises later in life that they ultimately decide to file for divorce themselves. Spellcaster Muchindu advises you to take control of the quality of your family life at the planning stage. He does more than just forces the chosen man to propose to you with the help of marriage proposal spells. He also uses spells to assist your husband to be a perfect life partner throughout the marriage. The material component is just as important as the physical and spiritual ones. The most powerful spellcaster makes men prosperous while forcing them to spend the majority of their money on their spouses. Making Black and White Magic Binding Spells Live Up To The Guarantees In a conversation with a Top spellcaster, one in four clients recollects a failed love spell order. A real master is always ready to assist in recasting unsuccessful spells, but they also warn against letting poor magical work go unpunished. Since there is nothing to charge the witch with and magical activity is not governed by the law, the court is unlikely to accept your case. However, you have every right to demand your money back. Furthermore, you have the power to destroy the witch’s reputation to the point where she is forced to stop working as a professional magic service provider. Post a review describing what you happened to you after ordering black or white magic for love, and how the spell to reunite lovers guaranteed by the witch worked out. At the very least, many individuals will not fall prey to fraud after that. Why A Spell To Attract Love Will Never Be Successful There are some folks who visit the spell caster out of curiosity, or, as they say, to test whether magic works. The master identifies these people immediately, but does not reject them, since he is all too aware of how amazed they are when they witness the consequences of his magical work. Additionally, some customers harbor romantic aspirations but believe they are unworthy of love. Even the most powerful attraction spells won’t make people with a low self-esteem happy. The most precious times in their life are tainted by fear, uncertainty, and the worry of betrayal. Spellcaster Muchindu advises them to begin with themselves. Instead of meditating, or trying to lose weight, or mastering the art of seduction, or cookery, order rituals that alter your settings rather than love spells now. Most Important Advice From The Best Relationship Psychic You may get a psychic reading love spells at any time. If you want, the spellcaster will provide psychic reading at your first appointment. All information gathered in our article is primarily advisory in nature. Since magic is not free, we want to help you understand how to receive the finest outcomes for a fair price. Thus, the finest piece of advice, in our opinion, is to start with yourself. It’s important not to suppress your self-consciousness. It is eliminated by spellcasters in a different way: - If you don’t like how you look, you’ll be granted beauty and a slim figure. - If you are not happy with your income, after casting spells you start to attract money energies. - If you feel old, you will be blessed with youth and active living. Every individual has a desire to improve some aspect of their personality and a highly skilled spellcaster is able to make such transformation possible for everyone. What to Avoid in Real Relationships Spells Magic Provides The most dangerous expectation is that someone else will take action to achieve happiness for you. Relationship love spells bind you to another person and keep you from separating. They are not omnipotent, though, as they can be obstructed or destroyed. Sometimes your boyfriend feels half the love for you just because you didn’t pick up when he was calling to say he loves you and it made him jealous. Since these emotions were created by witchcraft, they cannot refuel naturally. As a result, your worth and interest in his eyes will also drop by half. Of course, collapses of this intensity are extremely uncommon. However, if you eliminate the witchcraft effect piece by piece, you eventually leave nothing behind. Then, you may either accept your loss or order a fresh love spell. Read the full article

How to Build An Email List Fast

You've probably heard you need to build an email list, and you know you've got to, but...

Building an email list takes time, effort, and a bit of planning. Some say it's the most challenging work a business does.

But the benefits are well worth it.

List building is one of the best ways to get new qualified leads and build relationships with your audience. Most say better than social media.

In fact:

Email marketing ROI is 4200% ($42 for every $1 spent)

Email is 40% better at converting (in comparison to Facebook and Twitter)

72% of customers prefer email as their main channel for communication

Email marketing is worth the hard work.

And while it will take a bit of time to build your list, here are some ways to speed it up and grow your list faster.

But first, we interrupt this previously scheduled programming for this special announcement...

Email list building IS NOT buying a list of people. It is asking potential customers if they want to sign up, asking them for permission to email them, and using an email software program that allows them to unsubscribe easily - all as per the CAN-SPAM ACT of 2003. And this is no joke, on January 16, 2006, Jeffrey Goodin, 45, of Azusa, CA, was convicted by a jury in the United States District Court in Los Angles in United States v. Goodin, U.S. District Court, Central District of California, 06-110, under the CAN-SPAM Act (the first conviction under the Act), and on June 11, 2007, he was sentenced to 70 months in federal prison.

We suggest Kartra to stay compliant with email marketing laws; you can try it for 30 days for $1.

Make Sign-up Forms That Stand Out

You want to create sign-up forms that grab people's attention and place your forms in a prominent spot on your site. Make sure you have one form above the fold; that is before people have to scroll so that you can catch anyone that lands on your site.

Design the form, so it's different from the rest of the page. There needs to be some contrast so that it doesn't get missed. If your site background is white with black text and your form is white with the same black text. It's going to get missed. Find a way to stay within your brand style but still allow for the form to pop out on your site.

Include benefit-driven calls-to-action telling people what they can expect from signing up. Don't just say sign up for my newsletter. Tell them why? Why should they care? What are they going to get? How is this going to help them?

Placement is also important for getting attention for your sign-up. Put your sign-up form in multiple places throughout your website. Put it on the top of your sidebar but also at the bottom of your site in the footer, at the end, or even worked into every blog post, and even add an exit pop-up to catch people right before they leave.

Name and Email Address Only

Your form should have just two fields for people to fill in – name and email address.

Don't ask for anything more than that.

These days email is already a big ask, and if you make it even harder or more complicated to sign up, people just won't do it. Every time you add a request for another item, your chances of getting someone to sign up goes way down.

Shout Out Your Email List

And don't just put your email sign up on your website but tell people about it everywhere you talk to your audience.

Put it in your social media profiles, email signature, marketing materials, on your Google listing, and anywhere else people might potentially see it.

Talk about the Benefits

What unique value will someone get by being on your list? Identify this and explain it anytime you talk about your list.

If you understand your target buyer well and you can offer them something they find irresistible. Frame it in terms of how being on your list will improve their life, save them time or money, or get the results faster.

Use a Freebie

One of the best ways to entice more people to sign up is by using a lead magnet or a freebie.

This is a free piece of content that people get in exchange for their name and email address. The lead magnet also gives people a peek at the value they can expect from your list.

The best lead magnets are high in perceived value and low in commitment. And that includes a commitment in time. Yes, your 4-hour video series or 300 page e-book may be high in value, but both are too high of a time commitment for people just getting to know you.

Baby steps here.

Your best bet is something easy to digest, will give them quick results, and solves only one problem. Checklists, cheat sheets, resource guides, or specific tutorials are always good options. So think simple, even if you have the urge to give them everything at once.

Want to make your email list building easier? I built done-for-you email list building funnels, that you can set up in minutes. Check them out at smartaffunnels.com

Tell People In Real Life

Don't forget to tell all the people you meet offline about joining your list as well. If you have a brick-and-mortar store, let customers know about your list and give them any easy way to sign up at checkout.

You can also include a link to sign up on all of your printed materials as well.

Going to an event?

Plan ahead, and use it as an email-building event. What can you offer people there to get them to sign up for your list? Instead of handing out just your business card, hand out a compelling, irresistible invite to your email list.

Track What's Working

Keep track of where the majority of your new subscribers are coming from.

If you find your Facebook page is driving more traffic to your list, focus more of your efforts there.

Try other social media sites, like Instagram or Linkedin, to see if you get similar results.

If you find you're putting in a lot of work somewhere and no one is signing up, don't be afraid to stop putting in the time there. Go with what works for your business.
