so every week or so i get an email newsletter from a woman named carrie, who works on stay free magazine
(which is “a nonprofit magazine covering American culture, politics,
and life in South Central Brooklyn”). i subscribe to it mostly because
she sends out great articles concerning branding, commercialism, public
space, etc. also, she does some crazy shit. such as this little piece:

“Maybe you’ve heard the recent story about the guy selling ad space on
his forehead on eBay. Or the one the woman who auctioned off space on
her pregnant belly.

Since these stories became media sensations, eBay has been flooded
with copycats — people trying to sell space on their faces, bald
heads, backs, etc. I guess it’s a small consolation that most of
these morons haven’t found their auctions to be nearly as lucrative
as their predecessors, with bidding hovering around a dollar or two,
at most… but the fact remains that they remain undeterred.

“Advertise on my colon”

Perhaps this way we’ll at least get to see an ad in a space where it belongs.”
