This project will be presented at Conflux HQ on Friday, September 12, from 11:00 AM to 12:15 PM as part of the Friday Presentation Series. Tickets can be purchased here.

Project Description::

Rather than plagiarize comics and insert new text in the speech bubbles, Totality for Kids does the reverse. Kevin draws new art as the context for plagiarized Situationist texts. (Edited and arranged by McKenzie). The work is free on the web. What we envisage here is a a brief presentation of this work, as a catalyst for injecting a historical perspective into discussion of contemporary practices of détournement, dérive, psychogeography and unitary urbanism.
