Week 13 Rumination
This chapter discussed the cyclical and contagious nature of the reproduction of Obama Hope and the Obamicons that followed. When demand for something is higher than supply, counterfeit products will emerge to fill the void and this happened with Obama Hope posters, but this causes a cycle. Counterfeits affirm the value from exclusivity, thusly making the original seem even more valuable. As Gries (2015) stated, limited edition merchandise adds value to both the merch itself and the message or brand tied to it. That’s just supply and demand. However, Obama’s somewhat Jesus-esque ethereal aura (meaning that he made people feel they'll be safe in his hands) was intrinsically linked to that fact. There’s a cycle of Obama becoming more valued, making the posters more valuable, making Obama more valued, and so on. The whole concept of value is socially constructed and oftentimes contagious. I dislike the word “viral” because of the negative connotation that comes with it. I would prefer the word “contagious” because it seems more neutral; syphilis is contagious, but so is laughter.
Another part of what makes Obama Hope so contagious is the simplistic vagueness of “HOPE.” Hope can mean anything, so almost any audience can be interpellated. To a K.K.K. member, hope would mean thinking of a world without black people. To a Black Panther, hope would mean thinking of equity and justice for black people. This simplistic vagueness also turned Obama Hope and Obamicons into a medium for self-expression much like a a pair of congas (the instrument is simple and easy to understand, but the playing can be complex). With Obama Hope, the vagueness of the term allows a great variety of people to identify with the poster and subsequently the candidate shown, Obama. This is arguably the most effective form of advertising because most of the work is done by the viewer who is intended to creatively and personally interpret the message. With Obamicons, the format remains consistent, but the message varies widely.

Jayne Cobb by ~ezBadfish
Jayne! The Man they call Jayne! Oh, He robbed from the rich and he gave to the poor. Stood up to the man and he gave him what for. Our love for him now ain't hard to explain. The hero of Canton the man they call Jayne. Our Jayne saw the mudders' backs breakin'. He saw the mudders' lament. And he saw the Magistrate takin' every dollar and leavin' five cents. So he said: "You can't do that to my people." said "You can't crush them under your heel." So Jayne strapped on his hat and in 5 seconds flat stole everythin' Boss Higgins had to steal. Oh, He robbed from the rich and he gave to the poor. Stood up to the man and he gave him what for. Our love for him now ain't hard to explain. The hero of Canton the man they call Jayne. Now here is what separates heroes from common folk like you and I. The man they call Jayne he turned 'round his plane and let that money hit sky. He dropped it onto our houses he dropped it into our yards. The man they called Jayne he stole away our pain and headed out for the stars! (Here we go!) He robbed from the rich and he gave to the poor. Stood up to the man and he gave him what for. Our love for him now ain't hard to explain. The hero of Canton the man they call Jayne...
a little crooked but whatever.
