A short clip of massimo vignelli talking about 'the disease of postmodernism'
Pretty much slating the fact that people didn't create 'postmodernism' pieces because they were passionate about it. It was because they just wanted to rebel and be 'out there'. That brings it back to thinking is it just a fashion statement? Are people just creating work that is different and out there so they can make themselves look cool?
you've made a good point actually, it does seem 'pretty cool' to be post modern, i think a lot of people now tend to just follow along, like the whole hipster thing, how many people in carlisle let alone the rest of the world have cottoned on to this post modern way of dressing and acting, it's ridiculous.
