Mediaspotting

By Ryan Van Etten on 06/30/2010

Mediaspotting: Choose Life. Choose a username. Choose a social network. Choose on-demand internet television, MP3s, and eBay. Choose blogging, sharing, remixing, crowdsourcing, and DIY. Choose microfunding and locating your home on Google maps. Choose leisurewear that supports an artist or a cause. Choose realtime frictionless communication, GPS, and AR. Choose access to everything and ownership only of memories. Choose your Facebook friends and finding out who the fuck you were last night when they tag you in a photo. Choose YouTube videos and ROFL chatting across interwebs. Choose being cached by Google in the end of it all, pissing your last on your mobile bill, nothing more than filespace to the digital natives you spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life.

#smday poster remix inspired by the 1996 film Trainspotting based on the Irvine Welsh novel of the same name. I had the movie poster with the original monologue on my wall in 2000. I’d bought it at the college poster sale. They always sell posters to CU students at the start of new semesters. It was the first time I saw the letters DIY in print.
movie: YouTube | Amazon
