How can I reveal the hidden messages, unconscious urges, and Zeitgeist of our contemporary society through, deconstructing the “news” it constantly creates?

This is an ongoing personal project. Every few weeks I buy the sunday print edition of The New York Times and go through it with a large black marker blacking out parts of headlines to create new statements that i feel somehow address or represent a point of tension or evil in contemporary culture.

This project currently exists as a website regularly updated with the new headlines as I create them. Its a real time portrait of our cultures festering psychic wounds.

One day I will collect it all and publish it as a physical printed newspaper that I will give out in downtown San Francisco for free dressed as an old timey news boy who yells extra extra! Stay posted!
