Yomango
Yomango is a brand name whose goal is not the sale of products but lifestyles,
just like with all the other big brands. However, in the case of Yomango,
the lifestyle is based on shoplifting as a form of disobedience and direct
action against multinational corporations. Just as the market captures
desires, expectations and experiences and sells them back as products,
the Yomango style promotes the "reapropriation" of what was
once part of the commons. Yomango is an open-ended process generating
tools, prototypes and dynamics that flow and proliferate, waiting to be
re-appropriated.
