New Design for latest print of Orwell's 1984


[Designer David] Pearson says that the design went through numerous iterations "to establish just the right amount of print obliteration. Eventually we settled on printing and debossing, as per the Great Ideas series [Why I Write shown, above], with the difference being that the title and author name were then blocked out using matt black foil. This had the effect of partially flattening the debossed letters, leaving just enough of a dent for the title to be determined – though I can't vouch for it's success on Amazon."

The Ministry Of Truth


Given that MSNBC Anchors get called personally into the Whitehouse chambers and apparently coordinate message with Obama, MSNBC becomes an arm of the administration, or as in George Orwell's 1984, the official propaganda arm of the Regime, THE MINISTRY OF TRUTH.
The elements I use are the Big Brother eye in the Obama logo, the AMSOC slogan derived from the Orwellian INGSOC for English Socialism, the communist "Forward" slogan used by both the Obama Regime and MSNBC, and the Orwellian slogans, "Ignorance is Strength", "Freedom is Slavery" , "War is Peace" representing the DoubleThink concept of Orwell's 1984.
I also introduce formally the "ForwardThought" term into the newspeak dictionary for Tyrannical Governments.

AMSOC - FORWARD TOWARDS AMERICAN SOCIALISM


FORWARD COMRADES!
 
So this is a play on INGSOC from George Orwell's 1984 - A Novel about leftist government Tyranny.  INGSOC was the acronym for English Socialism, so I created AMSOC - American Socialism.  The Obama logo has the Big Brother eye in it, I probably need to decrease the transparency on it so that it pops more.  I used the Communist phrase of "Forward" just as the Obama administration does as does the Ministry of Truth: MSNBC.  It is still a work in progress.
