iStunted


This piece is referring to the crumbling music industry. The hand represents the creative tool which puts ideas into motion; however it is tangled up and trapped in the cord coming out of the ipod. This is referring to the RIAA's strict policy stunting the creativity and progression of musicians and the music business through the DRM (digital rights management) protection embedded from iTunes purchases and even some physical CDs. Modern technology, which has opened up a new world of distribution and creative possibilities for musicians, has brought fear and restrictions from the RIAA and other related organizations, turning the focus in the music business once again to the profits instead of the products.

Made with that wire from class and Crayola Model Magic, woop woop
