One of the many ‘interpretive perceptions’ one can adopt whilst analysing text is a Marxist view. Marxism is a broad philosophy concerned with political state, economics, socio-economics, class systems and the well being of the everyday self within society.
The video I have posted is from an artist I have listened to for the past couple of years. The theme throughout the majority of his music (particularly this song) comments upon current class issues which will inevitably exist in a capitalist society; be it the United States of America or ‘little old innocent’ New Zealand.
I believe this is a very important issue as society is literally the community we live in; it dictates both our physical and mental well-being as citizens in a society. Graphic Design plays an important role in either perpetuating or deterring class-ism through its messages and myths portrayed.
