Weak and Irresponsible
July 11, 2011 - Brooklyn, New York
I am completely offended by your naive and simplistic exploitation of this event.
You are obviously not a New Yorker, a veteran, or a victim of trauma or you might understand why your exploitative novelty is so weak and irresponsible.
The duplicity of your charitable claims and your shameless self-promotion borders on the psychopathic.
Oh sure you hate the corporate news media but you feel no shame in citing all its coverage of your blunt one-liner, yes Scott you are now part of the corporate media, milking one event, that you have NO personal experience with, for your own benefit and alleviating your unfelt guilt with some unstated percent going to charities. Really, you couldn't donate all the proceeds of your duplicitous project to organizations that assist people who have lost everything? How generous.
DId you not notice that we are at war in Iraq and Afghanistan, Sudan, Libya, Columbia, Mexico (and soon perhaps Syria and Yemen) in part due to the saber-rattling around 9/11, which you pretend to critique while you carefully avoid taking any specific stance so as to be able to sell more of your product.
Did you not notice that we have the highest suicide rate for our war vets. ever?
Your ability to appropriate all critique of your work is even more vile and detached.
This project is a lie, you are a liar, primarily you are lying to yourself.
Your vague references in your promotional material marks you for what you are, a huckster from Nebraska, who neither understands how media works nor comprehends their own ignorance.
Why don't you propose an alternative Scott, why don't you make your own images, why don't you put some energy into your artwork and media critique?
Really one flipbook from images made by a videographer YOU DON'T EVEN CREDIT!
You are so lame, so lazy and so uncreative.
Stop sending us your pathetic scam sheets.
Do something proactive instead of reactionary.
Then drop us a line.
I started donating 100% of the profits in October 2012.
I spotted the author at the LA Art Book Fair in February 2014.
