I am using these songs, and a collection of original Monopoly Money hand printed that we have at home, I shall frame up to make a project Some how. It's an arguement against greed and a reaction to Billionaire Artists not using there money, such as a certain Mr Hirst sueing a fellow, for a box of pencils, he stole from a Ten million pound instilation, for Fifty thousand as its part of the exhibition, silly greedy Damien, if he see's this he may sue me, I like your work leave me be.
I attempted to live a freegan life, but scavenging was quite hard, I went to some friends houses, got free meals, I'm making brownies from all the chocolate left overs, from the cafe I volunteered at, like slightly stale cookies, but have had to raid the larder, basically you either live it or you don't I guess I'm just not up to the totally cut off from convenience.
Looking at how the 1980's created a recession because of excess living and we didn't learn and had an even bigger recession recently 2009, Got me thinking about survival, how some things we don't need, how we throw away so much food, and pay for heating and silly things.
I quite like Polar Bears and the environment, so I try to be quite ecological I'm not quite on the level of Dick Strawbridge yet, and living in a house of seven its tricky to please everyone, but we spend money we don't really have.
And In the future, we'll get cars and mortgages and have kids get credit cards pay for heating pay taxes.
Basically I felt like all I was thinking about was money and the implications, so thought I'll do an exhibition which will be a humourous look at how we don't need all that much money, make top hats out of news papers, cheap alcohol.
Take quite a nostalgic look at technology to use for it, if showing films, use Tv's that people may through away soonish.
