Cardboard Robot en Magic Marketplace August 2007
CARDBOARD ROBOT / Order Online Cardboard Robot is a gang of the craziest misfits, dorks, & geeks you might ever come across. Led into the golden age of American ideals and rejecting all that is deemed "safe" paving the way for an individualistic army of ones...
ZEROS AND ONES, ZEROS AND ONES, 00101010010101010000101101110.... multiplying into an army of free-thinkers, artists intellects and rejects..... JOIN US. What started as an 8mm film short about the excessive age of technology and the individual's increasing ability to segregate from the idea that we may all be a very integral part of nature, has developed into something more. The name Cardboard Robot, with production of tank barrettes, limited edition posters, architecturally inspired recyclable furniture and minimalist clothing. It's hard to put a finger on this unique brand. Over the years Cardboard Robot has produced an array of gallery shows that promote film, live music, and outside artists collaborating together for a common purpose. That purpose generally stems from a political and social awareness. There is much more conceptualization going into each piece of clothing than your average "run of the mill" label. With titles for shirt designs like "98¢ Discount Store" and "Corporate Bulldozer", Cardboard Robot addresses issues of poverty-stricken neighborhoods and corporate takeovers. CBR's "Survival Hoody" sweatshirt humorously provides the buyer with a can opener as a zipper-pull and suggestions on dealing with global catastrophe, "in the event of such an act: "duck and take cover." Recyclable shelving units currently serve as in-store displays. When asking about what we could expect to see from Cardboard Robot in the future, the reply... "Look for a designer line of cardboard houses for the homeless."
