How to Speak Machine
John Maeda
In the Synaspismos we witness two strong leaders willing to submit to one another—to embrace the gifts the other brings and to join together, shields overlapping, in a shared mission. The icon is all about Peter and Paul, and it is also all about something much greater than Peter and Paul. Precisely because of their differences, both the differences we see portrayed and the differences we know about from the New Testament, the icon invites us to ponder what could bring two men together in this way.
The reality is that children have the benefit of affluence because of their parents’ hard work, effort, and risk-taking, but often the children don’t make that connection strongly. They were often born into the elevated lifestyle. It can feel hypocritical to talk about sacrifice, self-reliance, and hard work when you’ve got a second home with a Porsche in the garage. Having your child save for a new toy or the cost of camp may seem difficult as you plan your trip to Hawaii.
