This is the 1st part of a diptych dedicated to the topic of controlled consciousness of employees in transnational oil companies. TBT (Toolbox talk) - is a monotonous but mandatory ritual performed on oil industry sites and is one of the key links in the system of mind control of the participants in the oil & gas production process. The obligatory repetition of safety requirements as a sacred mantra before starting all works ultimately pursues the most important, but not openly advertised goal - the unification of behavior and control of the minds of personnel in order to achieve their paranoid adherence to strict rules of the company. The ritual known to the participants, performed daily according to the unchanged script of reading aloud the rules written down in the documents, seems very tedious in its progression, but vivid in its indicativeness scene of the slow but gradual zombification of personnel in order to unify their behavior. They circle in an endless brainwashing process. After a couple of years of such processing of consciousness, a special psychotype of people is reached, acting exclusively within the framework of permitted rules dictated by corporation - the conditions for the existence of a very far from normal society. The diptych is part of my many years project ‘Semiosis of Meta-Abstract Symbols / Phenomenology of Freedom’ that ended in 2023 - https://niyazmamedov.com/category/underground/page/2/ . Much of this research was carried out in conditions of complete art underground inside the transnational oil corporation bp where I’d made ‘deep dive’ for the unbiased and unrestricted studying political/social/environmental aspects of its activity that were the subject of my interests at intersection of art & semiotics. It was an unprecedented experience of penetrating the holy of holies of what should be explored.
