A simple device that can hack any video screen it gets near to. Especially kick-ass when those video screens are the ones in Times Square.

Update: It’s a fake. Pf.

During the oppressive years of apartheid rule in South Africa, not all artists had access to the same opportunities. But far from quashing creativity and political spirit, these limited options gave rise to a host of alternatives—including studios, print workshops, art centers, schools, publications, and theaters open to all races; underground poster workshops and collectives; and commercial galleries that supported the work of black artists—that made the art world a progressive environment for social change.

Just got a peek at the collateral for Impressions from South Africa, 1965 to Now, opening next week at MoMA. The salmon newsprint is brilliant…and poignant.
