This is FASHION or PSEUDO Design with a message, a concious or whatsoever. These are objects and images made to entertain people like us designers. Do they actually contribute to a better world? I don't think so. They just communicate the idea we could do better and have good ideas. Their are actually people working to make things truly better, and their focus is not on trend, image or pseudo culture. It would have so much more credibility for a Museum to focus on them.
