Culture Jam: Hijacking Commercial Culture

A fascinating rap on the 20th Century movement called Culture Jamming. Pranksters and subversive artists are causing a bit of brand damage to corporate mindshare. Jammers, cultural commentators, a billboard advertiser and a constitutional lawyer take us on a wild roller-coaster ride through the back streets of our mental environment. Disney arch-enemy Reverend Billy from the Church of Stop Shopping and Media Tigress Carly Stasko. Culture Jam asks: Is culture jamming civil disobedience? Senseless vandalism? Or the only form of self-defence left? Again we took a look at the site and thought it looked very funny but there’s also the serious message of is graffiti art or vandalism and how corporates try and get in to your mind and dominate the world with their brands.
