This is the second project belonging to the "consumer goods" theme. While the Recycling-shirt presents the wearer as an recyclable object, the barcode categorizes the wearer and assigns a globally unique product code to the individual. By the way, the barcode is from a box of vanilla ice (approx. $1.30 value).
