Profile Presentation: Glenn Jones.
Glenn Jones is a graphic designer and illustrator from Auckland, New Zealand. It started out as a hobby when he began submitting designs to Threadless.com a few years ago. Since then he's become one of the most successful designers on Threadless with 21 shirts printed for sale. So he decided it was time to focus a bit more on designing tees and he teamed up with some friends in the US to start this range of T-shirts, calendars and laptop skins.
irony:
the use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning.
literalism:
exact representation or portrayal, without idealization, as in art or literature.
lol
I like these because they're ironic and it's funny when things are taken literally. A salmon eating a bear is ironic. A bunch of food fighting is funny literalism.
"As the unity of the modern world becomes increasingly a technological rather than a social affair, the techniques of the arts provide the most valuable means of insight into the real direction of our own collective purposes."
