There is a sense of satisfaction in going to the effort of printing out A3 Colour Posters, sticking them up around RMIT and then having them torn down hours later. In one instance we positioned one alongside some socialist posters on a lamppost on Swanston Street, five minutes later they were gone. Tough Crowd.

The few that were taken down around Bowen Street where often removed hopefully because someone had become enraged at Jeff’s campaign promises rather than them just wanting space for their own poster.
We knew that his was going to be the case and had accounted for it in our planning. Throughout the two weeks of the campaign we are going to progressively erecting different posters. A poster is only a very quick way of getting peoples attention and to mirror that we used a QR code as an easily accessible way of accessing the narrative. Alongside the QR code we feature the twitter handle, which hopefully will be used. Twitter provides a fantastic platform in that people except concise information. On twitter the narrative becomes yet another part of their twitter feed that they consume daily. After the defacing in which ACTIV attach their own QR code people will be able to make sense of these actions by following the new QR code and twitter handle.

Jeff Baby!

Jeff Baby!
