Culture Jamming
October 10, 2004 Copyright © Mark Dery 2004; all rights reserved.
In solidarity with the Copyleft movement, which champions an "open source" approach to ideas at a time when corporations are privatizing more and more intellectual property, I'm making this essay available to anyone who wants to archive it on her site. In return, I ask only that you credit me as the author and, ironically, copyright holder, as in: "Mark Dery (markdery at optonline dot net) 2004; all rights reserved." This is not license to profit from the republication and resale of my work. That's stealware, not shareware.
Culture Jamming: Hacking, Slashing and Sniping in the Empire of Signs
"Culture jamming," a term I have popularized by articles in The New York Times and Adbusters, might best be defined as media hacking, information warfare, terror-art, and guerrilla semiotics, all in one. Billboard bandits, pirate TV and radio broadcasters, media hoaxers, and other vernacular media wrenchers who intrude on the intruders, investing ads, newscasts, and other media artifacts with subversive meanings are all culture jammers.
"An excellent springboard for anyone wishing to explore this fascinating form of art and revolt." --- bOING-bOING
