Moebius RIP

The 'Sedation Of Millions' print is inspired by the title of my favorite Public Enemy album 'It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back'. I think the biggest problem in America is the indifference and complacency about important issues that results from much of the population being perpetually hypnotized by conspicuous consumption, social media, entertainment, and self-medication. Using sedation and escapism for relief from the rat race might make us less aware (blissfully ignorant) but also less empowered to improve our role within the rat race… a vicious cycle of cause and effect.

Atari Teenage Riot's Alec Empire Donates Money From Sony Ad to Hacker Group Anonymous

Alec Empire, frontman of the German electropunk group Atari Teenage Riot and founder of the Digital Hardcore label, is now also a 21st century Robin Hood of sorts.
Empire has handed a large sum of money earned from Sony Entertainment off to FreeAnons, which is part of the pro-hacker Anonymous Solidarity Network. The group offers financial support to individuals facing legal trouble for alleged work with the Anonymous hacker group.
The money came from licensing Atari Teenage Riot's song "Black Flags" for use in a commercial for the PlayStation Vita handheld console. It's a particularly humorous move considering that Anonymous has in the past been in direct conflict with Sony.
