Society of the Spectacle: Baudrillard, Pollock

Postmodern Condition: everything as symbol/sign

‘Through planned motivation we find ourselves in an era where advertising takes over the moral responsibility for all of society and replaces a puritan morality with a hedonistic morality of pure satisfaction, like a new state of nature at the heart of hyper civilisation’ (Baudrillard, 1968, p.3)
Baudrillard, J., (1968) The System of Objects Taken from: The Order of Simulacra (1993) London: Sage.

Hyper productive culture of work

Hyper sexualised culture of spectacle
