I like looking at this. 5″ x 5″ acrylic. It is from an actual product. Can you guess what it is? (winner gets a prize)

Hello Rubi… New, New, New??? not on my packaging… it says ‘old, used, worn out!’ I am up way past my bedtime but have logged on to check out these “New” logos! I don’t pass go and collect $200 today, despite the fact that I am sure that you let slip the product in our earlier conversation.
…so what seems “new” to me here is the choice of word and the segment of the product packaging… your discovery spiral (I am picturing DNA to strands twisting together in the Rubi DNA, one from the life of a chef and the other from the artist…) and a view - no, a conversation, about what the priorities of this life are ment to be seems to be immerging (sorry for my spelling). Moving beyond the pillowy comforts of cheesey junk food into the relms of promotion… possibly less comment on how we (consummers, pons) visually reach for those self destructive comforts which represent many greater levels of evil and commentary on society and ecconomics, but moving towards how we visually ‘buy’ into the ’self improvement’ falacy of products… Not sure if I am getting my point across in my tired stupor… Certainly unable to guess on spelling and too tired to check it! I will try again tomorrow.
I am seeing your replication of products and logos becoming more specific and detailed and there is a big change in the direction of the conversation with the change of medium… I am currious to see how this reserch marries the strands of the DNA… and ultimately how they tie the knot with your stiching… (by the way, I think the smaller, more intimate scale works not only as you can produce more but… because there is something to the fragmentation… yes that’s it. One of the most obvious elements of logos is the fragmented way in which we are bombarded by them and they seem to take on meanings far greater than what they promote… they seep into our subconsciounessesesesesesese… infiltrate our minds like little shards of glass…. ) Sort of got carried away there…
