How to live in such a difficult time that we write about every day? There is only one way to resist troubles - put on a foil hat. A lot has been written about the miraculous properties of this material, but the artist Natalya Nalimova from the city of Shuya, the Ivanovo region, went farthest in the fight against the dangers of the world: fashionable hats from NLP, GMOs, the end of the world, collider and world backstage parted at the auction. A photographer from St. Petersburg Asha Mails gathered them together and captured them in the most dangerous situations.
A cap from GMOs in the rays of radiation from McDonald's, and from the invasion of zombies - near the hospital. We can say that the hats were tested with a bang: not a single subject was injured, and some even noticed an increase in the dose of endorphins. Impressed not only by beauty, but also by the action of hats, I decided to find out from Natalia Nalimova, who created a hat, a couple of secrets:
- How did you come up with the idea of using such an unusual material as foil, to create hats? Perhaps it was a revelation from above or a secret sign?
- The foil for hats is a classic protective material, which means that you can’t call it unusual. The foil shields psi waves, torsion fields and chocolate emanations. The latter may be seen by anyone who has ever bought chocolate. One hundred thousand manufacturers cannot make mistakes. But, although the choice of material was meaningful, there were no secret signs. The fact is that for a year I have been living in the repair. In order to insulate, I bought material with the official name "foamed polyethylene metallized." This is not just a foil, but a foil, as if specially designed for the Russian winter. After a heavy night, filled with screaming a feral neighbor's TV, I decided: it is time to sew a collection. And my gaze rested on foil with a plastic survey.




- Only death can be one hundred percent protection of consciousness. But if a person is alive, foil caps are a good replacement. Only narrowly focused protective equipment can serve as an alternative. For example, in the case of a zombie apocalypse, an ax is suitable, and the GMO will save the refusal of food. The study of the scientific method also helps well, but this is the most boring and long way, so for people busy my hats are almost a panacea. Although the cap from the panacea will save from it.
- Are there any side effects?
- I recently had a side effect that could be observed by the naked eye. I called it the "effect of manifestation." If you put on any hat from the collection (I conducted a thorough check of six hats) and go out into the street, you immediately become a prominent member of society. People show interest, take out cameras, some, especially amenable to effect, turn a finger with a gracefully, expressing delight from the meeting. I believe that this unexpected effect can be based on a placebo-collection of protection against modesty and uncertainty. I’m thinking about it, but I will not announce plans yet.




- Unfortunately, my dog Krandel categorically refused to be a tester, and the won to the animals is not our way. Therefore, an old mannequin Oscar, as well as the Chlorophytum plant, helps me. But they could not tell about their feelings, so I consider it a closed beta testing. Very closed. But successful.
- What do users say? Has their quality improved after the appearance of hats in it?- Not so long ago, one user carried a hat and a jam with jam in the package. Suddenly he stumbled and fell, putting a bag on the asphalt. What was his amazement when he discovered that the bank was not at all affected! Now this person wears a hat on his head and thinks about a foil jumpsuit. I don’t know whether it is possible to consider this an improvement in the quality of life, but the increase in its quantity will certainly happen, and then the matter of dialectics. As for other users, they do not say anything, but they are silent very expressively.
- Do you have a favorite hat and do you wear it?
A cap from GMOs
Cap for mobile phones
A cap from a collider
A cap from the end of the world - did you think about creating a cap “from everything”, so that the user would not have to suffer, choosing a style?- Not only thought, but also sewed. I'm afraid a hat from everything is similar to acid, which corrodes everything. As there is no substance in which such acid could be stored, so the cap is self -defended. For several months now, the cap cannot get to the owner, it seems that it is protected from transfer to other hands. Recently, they borrowed a hat from everything to take off in the video about aliens, and the video tank immediately broke. So, sewing a recursive cap, I still think a mistake. Another thing is hats that have a wide area of application. Instead of protection against GMOs and glutamate, you can sew one hat from chemistry. Instead of protection against world backstage and the end of the world - a hat from history. And to block the protection of the entire current collection, there is enough caps from laziness and stupidity.
