thou shalt not annoy

In Australia, the NSW State Government has introduced laws giving police the power to fine people for “causing annoyance” during World Youth Day in Sydney next week. The laws “have the potential to make a crime of wearing a T-shirt with a message on it, undertaking a Chaser-style stunt, handing out condoms at protests, riding a skateboard or even playing music”. People who fail to comply could be fined $5500. You can read more about the laws here.

The Agent Provocateur (t-shirts with messages) group on the bubble has been running a challenge over the past week, asking people to design a t-shirt as a protest against these laws. Below are some of the designs submitted. You can see all the designs here.

t-shirt blitz

In an effort that will make the rest of us seem extremely lazy, nofrillsart has pledged to post one t-shirt design every second day for the next two months. Will he be able to do it? Will any of them be any good? Is he 10% mental? For all the answers, stay tuned.
