Talent Borrows

Ripping off other people’s shit is nothing new, but I have found several new-ish links on the subject lately. Here’s one about Bacardi borrowing a clever performance art piece to help make their image a bit more rebellious (though not as much so as that devil-may-care iconoclast, Captain Morgan, it would seem!) And here is an ongoing blog that documents Urban Outfitters’ (among a few others) attempts to get some design work done without having to deal with all those damn, dirty designers! Way to go guys… Keep pumping out the hits, and they’ll keep re-pumping them!
