ITs History!
The #Atari 1200XL was a 8bit #homecomputer running a #MOS 6502 #CPU at 1.79 MHz. When this beautiful machine was launched in 1983 with 64Kb RAM the price was under thousand dollars, but... https://youtu.be/JyA5tA5mmYY

$omehow, in the #8bitwar the #C64 was much more popular even when specs been almost the same. The difference in #BASIC language was less significant for the success. Most likely that competition was won by #Commodore because Jack Tramiel took the advice of his grandfather so serious.

Starvation as a weapon for ethnic cleansing isn't better than to use pesticides on human individuals. It's inhumane to fight against #HumanitarianAid from #UNRWA, isn't it? If that's not evidence of intentional genocide for the #ICJ, then it must be me who's so confused about @palestine by #USA #MSM

Maybe that's why the cans are mixed up in this vector re#interpretation of a well-known Andy #Warhol #artwork. There's more than a meta-level in this #juxtaposed POP Art if a Zyklon-B can is merged with Campbell's Tomato Soup, isn't it?

Vector illustration of a can that almost looks like the Campbell's Tomato Soup can by Andy Warhol, but not quite identical. It smells/looks a bit like Zyklon-B was used as the secret ingredient.

#HOPE on #DOPE
This #vector illustration of a #Cannabis leaf is kept almost in the same color palette of the #Obama #portrait by #ShepardFairey

While he used #Adobe #Illustrator for his #artwork, this #Marihuana symbol isn't just one of the latest #graphics by #gfkDSGN and made with @Inkscape, but in #SVG technology not #AdobePostScript. #vectorgraphics are better rendered with #FreeSoftware like #Inkscape that's why the #Weed is looking so good, isn't it?

It's not just that Midjourney #AI #imageGenerator used artworks of Blek le Rat & Shepard Fairey #Obey only, without their consent in pre-training aka preparation of #copyright violations on a massive scale.

At least the Midjourney situation isn't as bad for @art works of Rosalyn #Drexler, #Banksy and our #gfkDSGN as it is for:
Andy #Warhol, HR #Giger, Herman #Zapf, Paul #Klee & #Cezanne, Piet #Mondrian, MC #Escher, Roy #Lichtenstein, Tom #Wesselmann, Wassily #Kandinsky and even companies like #StudioGhibli

However, I would love to read what #FediArt followers and other #Artists are thinking about this development.
