The April Midnight Show poster is in Adbusters.

One of the designs I made for The Midnight Show is featured in the July/August issue of Adbusters. Adbusters describes itself thus:

We are a global network of culture jammers and creatives working to change the way information flows, the way corporations wield power, and the way meaning is produced in our society.

 

The poster below stems from my disappointment in the Apple iPad. I don't like a future where the personal computer is a consumption device; I prefer to think of it as a tool, rather than a TV. And though there are basic things you can create with an iPad, it is primarily an entertainment machine; a computer stripped of inputs. Point at the pictures with your fingers. Select your stream. Sure you can read articles on the iPad, but good luck responding to them with the on-screen keyboard. Frustrated with your inability to type, you might find yourself censoring your ideas, simply because they'll take too long to write out.
