ADDITIONAL
PARASITIC TEXTILES
(2002-2007)
Rüdiger Schlömer
Additional is a parasitic brand. It features no own products, but adheres to existing things and surfaces. It adds on to them and changes their purpose for its own aims. All products (except the additional label) are entirely made of readymade products. Red thread becomes parasitic textile, red colored text stains mark the parasitic body in print environment. Containing aspects of Graffiti and Hacktivism the project shows medial attention strategies on a prototypic level. Additional agitations include mailings, workshops and interventions in design and fashion context.
