Two Bay Area artists (working under pseudonyms because they have day jobs in advertising) started a project called Occupy George. From their site:

Money talks, but not loud enough for the 99%. By circulating dollar bills stamped with fact-based infographics, Occupy George informs the public of America's daunting economic disparity one bill at a time. Because money knowledge is power.

The templates of OG's five different graphics are downloadable, for free, here. You can print your own red-marked bills. Occupy your money!

I heard about Occupy George in a piece in Oakland North about the art of Occupy Oakland living on despite the dismantlement of the camp. Also cool there: the sculptures made out of police barriers, no longer up but documented in photographs.

At Occupy Seattle this morning, I saw a large painting whose meaning perplexed me. Ideas?
