A Banksy t-shirt, with a photo a man throwing a molotov cocktail doctored so he’s throwing a bunch of flowers, skilfully juxtaposing images of violence with peace.
There’s a similarly mind-blowing juxtaposition: I’m dunking a Rich Tea biscuit into a cup of coffee, thereby subverting your expectation and forcing you to confront your consumerist programming. That’s situationism for you.
The big reveal from yesterday’s “Ask Me About My Ninja” t-shirt
My “Ask me about my ninja” t-shirt
A satan costume
A suit. And shirt. And shoes.
This is in prep for Mobile World Congress, a massive synerjism of a conference in Barcelona where the company prohibits “athletic shoes” and jeans. I’ll be hobbling like a geriatric and sweaty in my cheap weddings-and-funerals polyester suit, but by christ I’ll look like a fucking WINNER.
Some spangly spandex speedos, just like these.
Sadly, my camera is broken today.
Yesterday and today I’m wearing a crappy orange t-shirt with the word “Kanchanaburi” on it in Thai script, and a logo that’s a stylised version of the Bridge over the River Kwae and the Three Pagoda Pass. I bought it for 100 Baht in a market in Kanchanaburi because I’d just hurled an ice-cream over the t-shirt that I originally sported that day.
Sunday’s a day for relaxing and trying something new. For Bruce Haxton, who asked for something “a bit left-field”, today’s creation is a post-modern ensemble of aztec tights, a batik shirt from Malang, Indonesia, with a council reflective jacket and topped by a dinosaur hat from D&G.
As requested by David Storey, my warning t-shirt.
I’m not actually wearing any Wonder Sauna Hot Pants. But what I’m wearing today is so dull, so I wish I were.
