Designers Mirco Pagano and Moreno de Turco are against piracy. Their exhibition, Piracy, required over 6500 CDs and forms a series of portraits of fallen musical icons. While the connection of music piracy and the actual circumstances of each figure's death is thin, the idea that piracy limits the livelihood of creative folks is loud and clear. Using only greatest hits CDs in the portraits is a nice touch too. [Ignant]
