ANZEIGE



“THE URGENCY OF THE TIME
MANIFESTS A NEED FOR CHANGE.”

WATCH or READ
THE FULL MANIFESTO.




TO REMEMBER IS TO RESIST.
“SO WE DECIDE TO START AGAIN. WIPE THE SLATE CLEAN.
START FRESH. WE WANT TO GET IT RIGHT THIS TIME.”
TO MANIFEST IS TO PERFORM.
ANZEIGE IS MY VOW TO DESIGN AS A NEW KIND OF EXPOSURE.
THE DISPLAY OF A RIDDLE. IN THE FORM OF A DIALOGUE.
ANZEIGE IS MY INVITATION TO THE NEW GENERATIONS
OF DESIGNERS. AS A CALL FOR ACTION,
THAT AIMS TO RESTORE THE REAL VALUE OF THE USER.


DIALOGUE  (link)

THE ACT ISN’T RECOGNISED IN THE OBJECT
BUT IN ALL THE RESEARCH THAT COMES BEFORE.
DESIGN IS DIALOGUE. IT IS A CONFRONTATION AND A TRIGGER.
DESIGN IS ART WITH RESPONSIBILITY.
IT SEES TRUTH IN REALITY OF THOUGHT.
IT IS SOCIAL-POLITICAL INVOLVEMENT.
RENEWAL OF PHILISOPHICAL DISCOURS.
I VOW TO DESIGN FOR URGENCY AND RECOGNIZE MOMENTUM
TO EXPOSE THE PRACTICE AND NOT THE SELF.
I VOW TO DESIGN TO REJECT AUTHROSHIP.
TO EMPOWER AND RESTORE ITS STATUS,
AS THE DEATH OF THE AUTHOR, AND THE BIRTH OF THE USER.


SPECTACLE  (link)

FOR ALL OF THE ABOVE:
I REJECT AND CONDEMN
THE WORLD OF SPECTACLES,
THE LAND OF THE BLIND, A SYSTEM WITHOUT TRUST.
I REJECT AND CONDEMN SOCIAL STANDARDS, HIERARCHY BY FEAR,
DESIGN FOR PROFIT, DESIGN FOR INTENTION.


MOMENTUM (link)

SO DON’T GET TIRED, SOLDIERS! THIS IS THE “NEW NORMAL”.
SO FIND THIS MOMENTUM, BECAUSE IN THE CHAOS AND IN THE CONFUSION,
WE WILL DECLARE CHANGE AND UNSETTLE EVERYTHING.
WE ARE THE DESIGNERS WHO VALUE IMPACT OVER INTENTION.
WE ARE THE DESIGNERS WHO PRACTICE HYPOTHESIS
TO RAISE DISCUSSIONS THAT ARE NOT ABOUT DESIGN.
WE REFUSE MERIT WITH HIGHER ESTEEM
THAN NEED OR JUSTIFICATION.

DESIGN WILL DISARM
AND IT WILL OCCUPY.
ANZEIGE.
