Painting by Barry Godber (1946–1970), slightly enhanced by me. Click image to enlarge.

Stumbled upon this old record cover from King Crimson’s first album and thought how well it illustrated the fear and paranoia that corporate media and politicians worldwide have managed to inflict on many peoples’ lives during these Coronavirus times. It is both sad and frightening to see how easily people’s feelings and behaviour can be manipulated and controlled by simply introducing the fear factor.
