About my design

by thelovefanclub   
The Walter Benjamin shirt!



The Arcades Project (in German, Das Passagen-Werk) is a monumental ruin, meticulously constructed over the course of thirteen years--"the theater," as Benjamin called it, "of all my struggles and all my ideas."

If Walter Benjamin was alive today he would have already made this shirt

I'm afraid for this design... I'm really, really hoping that some of the people who make snap judgments on this site stop and take the time to understand how wonderful this design is! And you don't even have to know who Benjamin is to love it... it's beautiful!



(I'm so pushing for this shirt... Benjamin took up about 15 pages of my thesis-- "Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction" was a LARGE part of the driving force behind it... I NEED this SHIRT!)

have you made the whole alphabet? this would be such an AWESOME font.



I think it usually backfires on people when they put "$5" on their presentations, nobody likes to be told what to do, you know? if your stuff stinks it wont help, if you're good you don't need it. :-)

I have no idea who Walter Benjamin is and in no way would you need to know to love this shirt. I would put the letters closer together, but that's it. I'm going to get this shirt and hit the ZAXXON machine for about an hour.
