Consume Everything from Origin68

29Feb08by Karl

I love the idea behind this Origin68 t-shirt, the irony of course that i’m promoting consumption of this thing while somehow looking down on the act of consumption. That being said the t-shirt industry has been one of the leading examples of the concept of consumer on it’s head, look at threadless, their doing more [...]

Grief In T-Shirt Form

07Jul06by Karl
