NOTCOT: Banksy’s Village Petstore & Charcoal Grill from Jean Aw on Vimeo.

I have never been so politically active before. I made this series of posters for the elevators at work. A simple reminder for people to remember to go get registered before the deadline in Oregon. 

Spelling Change was developed by a group of creative professionals to spread awareness and passion about the Obama campaign. Its goal is to encourage one-to-one communication by creating tools that help people get out the word on issues that are important to them.This is what the letter “E” means to me:

In the context of Barack Obama’s campaign for the Presidency of the United States, the letter “E” means everyone to me. Collectively we are hungry for change as a nation. Education costs skyrocket as the Economy plummets. The Environment needs as much attention to protect it as we seem to take from it, if not more. These are only a few of the issues facing the candidates to lead America into a new era of change. A change in our thinking, a change in our values, a change with who we are everyday. It is this call for change that must include everyone.

I should probably not be posting it because Kanye may not have even seen it yet. The idea is to get Kanye out to battleground states and follow him around as he reminds people to vote on November 4th. My thinking was no matter how famous or wealthy someone is, their vote is worth the same as anyone else’s vote. This is what connects us all and there has not been a more important time for people to vote as there is now. This poster is about putting down the glam and bling and let’s change this place together.
