Great Transnational Nude Cruft
This cruft algorithm selects the name of a large corporation from a listing on Transnationale.org, and passes that name as a search term into Yahoo! Image Search. The search results of corporate imagery are then composited with a national flag downloaded from WikiMedia, as well as a recent image of a nude female from KindGirls.com to generate this cruft image.
...the point of public relations slogans like "Support Our Troops" is that they don't mean anything [...] that's the whole point of good propaganda. You want to create a slogan that nobody is gonna be against and I suppose everybody will be for, because nobody knows what it means, because it doesn't mean anything. But its crucial value is that it diverts your attention from a question that does mean something, do you support our policy? And that's the one you're not allowed to talk about.
