045P [ ] Propaganda War

A fascinating and highly worrying gallery showing the entire archive of propaganda leaflets dropped over Iraq by the United States Central Command since November 2002.

I took a war propaganda course in University- It was extremely interesting/worrisome to see the subtleties in everyday imagery/sound that had the power to really shape a collective conscious...

The medium is the message...

fascinating indeed. caricature of saddam somehow reminds me of the way jews were drawn in nazi germany.

Hiro, do you mind to say what you studied at university please?

18th April 2003

Not at all- I studied Criminology and Media Information an Technoculture. The M.I.T. program is what kept me interested in school- It was a combination of journalism, computer science, media studies... It was a relatively new program when I was there- The kids were all gung-ho about it- as were the professors- We studied such things as how the Internet will change law (re: sampling rights etc).- War Propaganda- It was a hell of a program.

The profs were amazing- I had one prof with whom I had somewhat of a battle-of-the-wits with for a few years... He was the one who did the war course- Also the one who told us all to write papers on Blade Runner and The Dark Knight Returns.

Now I am in fashion... funny eh?

How about you?
