The Man in the Newspaper Suit
type: Product
description: A combination of graphics and text that reflects the anxiety and paranoia experienced when living in a functional delirium created and controlled by media jargon, militaristic slogans, and corporate advertising. This is a world in which all notions of « objective reality » have been replaced. Artificially generated nightmares are the new « Normal. » Propaganda is truth. Desire is manufactured. Even dreams are regulated, repackaged, rebranded, and sold. The problem that news and adverts formerly faced– reaching the « target market »– has been solved by turning the audience into the product. The « Newspaper Suit » references the now archaic print medium that fuelled the cycle of mass disinformation and consumerism. Newspapers were once valued by the hobos, the homeless, the disenfranchised. They had no interest in the bogus headlines they promulgated, but appreciated the insulating properties of newsprint, to line their clothes with on cold nights. The Newspaper Suit of the modern era is tailor-made to fit YOUR body and mind with algorithmic accuracy. This collection of illustrated anti-poems could be YOURS to indulge in! A limited time opportunity to bathe in the numbing glow of the buzz-words and double-speak that have brought you the cost-effective lifestyle you enjoy. Read an excerpt >
