Memefest' 04 | deadline 20 May 2004

The compound-word du jour is "RESPONSE-ABILITY" and as
such, Memefest 2004 challenges designers and artists
to explore the role of visual communicators in social
movements.
Start by reading the essay Design is not enough. Then
turn your attention to a cause that gets you riled up
and start creating.

Your goal is to produce a visual work or project that
communicates a social cause while taking into
consideration the essay's ideas on collaborative
expression and designer identity. As for subject
matter, the field is wide open. From anti-corporate to
pro-justice, from "culture jamming" to issue advocacy,
it's all up to you.

When submitting your work, include a (150 word max.)
rationale for your treatment.
