After reading Guy Debord’s essay “Society of the Spectacle”, I have worked typographically on the text of the chapter “Negation and consumption whithin culture” in the Italian translation. So, I have used the Italian words “negazione” and “consumo” as a filter and agent of the disintegration of the text and its typefaces.
Therefore, the text loses its immediate readability, as if the text itself suffered the negation and consumption that corrupt the culture.
