About

"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."
~ Marshall McLuhan



Please Respect the Art.

Reblogging without crediting the artist, link, or source is strictly prohibited. Violators will be subject to bad karma, bad juju, and a general loss of respect.
