in Fontenoy’s words: “Alkama is an experiment, related to alchemy… The vital fluids, red and white, male and female, female or male, mingle—the experiment is whether they will interpenetrate or reject.” these photographs capture the moments when the two body substances first come together- JORDAN EAGLES— BAR 1-9 2009 + LIFE FORCE 2008

A woman, identified as Cub Scout troop leader Ingrid Loyau-Kennett, confronts one of two suspects who moments before viciously beheaded a British soldier on a street in London in what government officials called a “terror-related” incident. The attackers had claimed responsibility for the murder, saying on camera “The only reason we have done this is because Muslims are dying every day. This British soldier is an eye for an eye a tooth for tooth.” Loyau-Kennett, who wasn’t hurt, is also captured on video telling one of the men “Right now it is only you versus many people. You are going to lose. What would you like to do?” Both suspects were later
killedshot and wounded by police. (Photo: @sibiillamlaw / Twitter via The New York Daily News)God damn it.
