“But design gives us the tools to make the world more beautiful and humane: one that reflects our intelligence and imagination” such sentiments are cliche justifications to force an arbitrary vision of beauty upon others for our personal gain. Hitler’s “final solution” was an aesthetic one too.

Designers make a mediated existence more desirable, to turn people away from the abundance of life and direct sensory experience. Fantastical creations make us regret the world of reality and blind us to the true cost of western ideals. No reality is more regrettable than the oppression and suffering of others in far off

“Why is an advertisement allowed to be bigger than an article about the death of over a thousand Nigerians who died when a munitions dump exploded in their town? We are partners in this inversion of priorities, a switch that trivialises the lives of humans for financial gain”

In our society where modern conditions of production prevail, all of life presents itself as an immense accumulation of spectacles” Designers play an integral part in convincing the general public that “It will be O.K”, that the current system is working for all. They do this by masking excess in necessity and cloaking uselessness in an imagined beauty and design value.

A typical example of Design intervention is to sneak around at night and deface existing advertising one liners and corporate power structures. This demonstrates that you are not only equally clever but also moraly superior, Maybe everybody listen to my.. I mean our, version of history. This Trick means the ego and self importance of an “artist” can compete on a corporate and institutional level.

People maybe reading less but that is no excuse for designing something that isunreadable,
