Yellow Bird Project is a Montreal-based, non-profit initiative. We collaborate with musicians in designing a T-shirt, we print and sell them on our website, and all of the money we make goes to charity. Which charity? Each of the artists gets to choose their own. We have three fundamental aims:

1) To make money for charities directly through T-shirt sales.

2) To raise awareness for charity organizations through artists’ endorsement.

3) To raise the profile of the artists we like.
We have specifically approached individuals that we think are creative and conscientious enough to make a difference.

Devendra, heh. I also liked Joseph Arthur's design (actually I liked his best -- should have used that image).

Re: Joe Coleman -- yeah, that's some pretty freaky stuff. I do tend to like the Apocalyptic visionary-type art (see also self-taught Prophet Royal Robertson and his psychotic artwork and, of course, Rev. Howard Finster). Is Joe Coleman self-taught? Was this a general question, Laura, or were you wondering because of my web log thingy? Anyway, hey!
