Pop Deflated: The Banal Celebrity Tweet Elevated To Art

​Thank goodness for the internet and for social networks, because they let us keep up with what our friends and collaborators are doing. My friend Michael Camarra has launched Pop Deflated, a new tumblr where he illustrates the everyday celebrity tweet and in the process elevates them into high satirical art. Go ahead and follow, don't miss any work, you never know what Moby or Sarah Silverman tweet will get the PD treatment next. And if you see a tweet that is just screaming to be deflated you can submit it here. Hopefully the collection will grow large enough we can convince Michael to make them available as prints.

In 1991 Antonio developed one of the very first websites to market the arts. It was text based, only available to computer scientists, and increased attendance to the Rutgers Arts Center where he had truly begun his professional career. Since then Antonio has been an early adopter and innovator merging technology and marketing with his passion for art, culture and entertainment.
