These images and clippings originated in The Whole Earth Catalog. Printed from 1968 to 1972, the Catalog provided education and access to tools by listing products that could be used by anyone to foster a creative, self-sustainable lifestyle. Its mission of spreading information along with the inclusion of user generated content became a precursor to our present-day blogosphere. As a vestige of the the 1960’s back-to-the-land counterculture movement, the work speaks to the massive online DIY communities that exist today, empowering the reader to become a maker. These pieces exist as contemporary relics, pseudo artifacts and analogue fragments from a digital era.
