Piratery - Garderobbery do you like plundering, marauding for aesthetic snapshots in the treasure world? find luck on the sea! behave like a good pirate, take the chaos opportunities of the continuously speeding up markets and fashions cycles. go ahead and pick up what you need and adopt it for your live! patchwork your wardrobe. get ready for the street. it’s a classical subversive survival strategy and a silent communication with the ones like you. – get ready for the street. it will be actually your street fashion copied by the big industry. but you will be already cruising somewhere else…. core issue piracy: what is an original? what is a copy? is everything a copy of a copy of a copy? is culture a big endless plagiarism, in which people just re-create?
free ware - share ware - sample - remix - substitute - open source - gift economy - use - abuse the piracy paradox: piracy makes the fashion world go round!
in all directions. copying does not deter innovation - it’s actually promoting it.
now, the morbid symbol of the skull and crossbones flies around in the fashion season, and piracy patches & clothing benefit from the piracy tide. loose your anchor and sail to another piracy cross-sight or right to the street of malakka.
