“Commodity Bulimia”, is when one has an allergic physical reactions towards
bad fashion, logos and advertising, You are reading a respectable newspaper, oh that looks interesting and you press the arrow to see the video and you are then subjected to series of ads
which actually make you physically sick.
As Walter Benjamin indicates today things can not be left as they are, even aura itself for the greedy multitude (Capitalism) must
pry an object from its shell, to destroy its aura is the mark of a
perception whose “sense of universal equality of things” has increased to such a degree that it extracts it even from a unique object by means of reproduction.
anything of worth is morphed into an 'ad'. We are talking here about
(aural) distance and its dissolution.
I am feeling sick again.
