 Logorama features a town constructed of logos Tags: consumption/consumerism, marketing/brands, social mvmts/social change/resistance, culture jamming, subvertising, 11 to 20 mins Year: 2010 Length: 16:01 Access: Vimeo Summary: This short documentary was presented at the Cannes Film Festival in 2009. It opened the 2010 Sundance Film Festival and won a 2010 academy award under the category of animated short. The film depicts a world populated solely by corporate logos, and the villain of the story is none other than Ronald McDonald. The violence in this film and its atrocious characters stand in jarring contrast to the generally sublime messages corporations attempt to associate with their logos. While the ubiquity of corporate logos is certainly a remark on contemporary capitalism and consumption, I think the film works as an excellent example of cultural resistance or culture jamming, which can be summed up as an effort to subvert meanings. Carly Stasko elaborates on the practice of culture jamming in this clip taken from a documentary on the subject. Submitted By: Lester Andrist

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him Leave a Reply. |
