THEME IS 'EXCESS' We are working out what 'excess' will mean. Excess is certainly the over-consumption of the spectacle of late, postmodern capitalism. Exess is the way we work, multi-task, try to be virtual and onthe ground. Supersize McDonald's is excess. Wal-Mart is excess. Corporatization of all kinds of formerly non-business organizations is excess. There are many kinds of excess. See More Ideas on THEME OF EXCESS
