Derby #50: Energy
Hey, this Derby's over. When you're finished reliving past glories, check out what's going on in the Derby right now. It's probably even cooler. Or at least newer.
What does energy mean to you? Is it something that you can buy for $150 a barrel? Is it some ineffable New Agey quality that comes in positive and negative flavors? Is it a scalar physical property often defined as "the ability to do work"? Is it something you get from a can full of sugar and caffeine? Nervous, nuclear, mental, kinetic, potential, surface, green, vacuum, electrical, spiritual, solar, healing, sensible, latent, emotional: choose your energy and make us wear it.
No straight resubmissions from past Derbies, especially including Heat and Light. We'll be pretty hardline about it this week, and we need your tattles to catch the offenders. But, as always, reworked versions of past submissions are permitted. We'll be the judge of whether it's reworked enough.
Incidental text allowed, but no slogan shirts. We're calling this the Stop Sign Rule. If you need a bit of text here or there to make your design work, that's OK. You can show somebody reading a newspaper, or the digits on a gas pump, or a label on a package. But if text is the primary focus of your design, it will get the axe. Again, we'll make these decisions on a shirt-by-shirt basis, so err on the side of caution.
