Detourning

Check this out!  the Billboard Liberation Front defaces billboards in clever ways that expose the cultural messages inherent in their advertising.  Above is their latest, which turns "She is a thing of beauty" into "She is a thing."  Nicely done.  Here's their website: http://www.billboardliberation.com/

In these last few weeks of class, if you're able to find things like this--that push back against advertising--please post them.  We need strategies.
