Gallery of images in the Corporate Tech Laser Grid aesthetic (circa very early 1980s - very late 1980s) from “CARI, or Consumer Aesthetics Research Institute, is an online community dedicated to developing a visual lexicon of consumer ephemera from the 1970s until now.”
a consumer aesthetic [is] a visual movement unified by overarching attitudes and themes that survived long enough or became popular enough to be appropriated by capital
Collage from Zoë Bernard’s Rolling Stone feature “Welcome to the Church of Bitcoin” including a picture of the crowd looking at a huge screen and stage, and the lines: “In the hazy light, I scan the crowd. Their faces are upturned in rapt attention. I’ve seen this referential expression in an audience before, albeit in a different context. It reminds me, unmistakably, of church.”
“We love you!” someone in the audience screams.
Collage from Will Mathis, Josh Saul, Alfred Cang, and Zheping Huang’s Bloomberg feature “Bitcoin Miners Navigate Extreme World of Crypto Power-Hunting” including an image of the grey power equipment of a Nebraska crypto mining operation under grey clouds, a graph showing the decline in global bitcoin hashrate since China banned miners, and armed guards standing outside a different mining facility in Kazakhstan.
“All my money is gone,” he said, cursing as he chugged a beer. “Every day I’m losing money by not running those machines.”

Collage of Terry Nguyen’s Vox story “Shein is the future of fast fashion. Is that a good thing?” with the quote “There are tens of thousands of styles on the retailer’s site, and each day, about 1,000 more are added. For context, this production pace is even speedier than the “ultra-fast” sites that dominate fast fashion’s Instagram era; Missguided and Fashion Nova, for example, reportedly release about 1,000 new styles a week. Shein’s business model, like that of its fast forebears, abides by the tenet that more is better, that excess can be made accessible through mysteriously low prices, with little care for environmental costs or transparency about its labor force.”
What are the ethics of producing and selling thousands of garments a day at a breakneck pace, even if workers are reportedly paid on time? Shein’s business model drives — and depends on — overconsumption.
Collage from the most recent Blackbird Spyplane newsletter, on th idea of the “Cop I.R.L. Only Challenge.” Quotes: “Does an IRL jawn “hit different,” on some metaphysical level, than an e-jawn?” “Is it possible to love a virtually purchased piece as deeply as one U copped in the flesh — esp. while traveling?”
U can just take the C.I.R.L.O.C. mindset as a perceptual-horizons shifter to help you re-examine, re-write and RE-INJECT PERSONAL AGENCY back into yr relationship to jawns, web-era consumerism… and desire itself.
