Memefest Interview. English version out now on Digicult

Finally, the Englis version of the interview with Oliver is on line on Digimag vol. 60
"MEMEFEST: OLIVER VODEB. CRITICAL AND RADICAL COMUNICATION"
http://www.digicult.it/digimag/article.asp?id=1957
It's much more that a "propaganda" interview; there are some interesting thoughts about communication and design that call for a deeper reflection.
Enjoy, and share it!
Ciao!
Bertram
