I WANT YOU TO . . . BUY A COFFEE MUG!

afterthesemessages: The Propaganda Remix Project

Atmpropaganda

This campaign is composed of images by Micah Ian Wright. His "remixed propaganda," which appropriates support-the-war-effort design concepts from the 1920's and 40's, has inspired much commentary and two books from Seven Stories Press.  He combines the vernacular of American military posters with modern political issues. And he sell t-shirts, coffee mugs and posters.

Wright apparently also has credibility issues; there's something to be said for truth in advertising.
