The Society of the Spectacle: The Association of Surfing Professionals and Corporations
Monday 25/02 33
The professional surfing tour and coporations attached to it preach creativity and freedom in the slogans but it's possible to argue that they actually bury them, destroy them, make them only connotesales. The professional surfing tour can be argued to be surfing as control – an apparatus of capture. As the commentators and judges remark, he/she surf's "in control".
So what to do?
