Meme Based on Samael's Song "Slavocracy"

Kim Jashua Rojas Dacutanan created this meme in WRS 206, for an assignment that called for students to react to a song through a visual representation. This student chose a song called “Slavocracy” by the Swedish band Samael. The band sings about the evils of a society that is ruled primarily through slavocracy, and Kim responded to this system with a meme that shows his desire to escape from the stressful life of exploitation into a forest to live free and in peace. The meme cleverly contrasts the song’s depiction of a gray, mundane existence with lush and vibrant colours of nature.

Abstract

Kim Jashua Rojas Dacutanan created this meme in WRS 206, for an assignment that called for students to react to a song through a visual representation. This student chose a song called “Slavocracy” by the Swedish band Samael. The band sings about the evils of a society that is ruled primarily through slavocracy, and Kim responded to this system with a meme that shows his desire to escape from the stressful life of exploitation into a forest to live free and in peace. The meme cleverly contrasts the song’s depiction of a gray, mundane existence with lush and vibrant colours of nature.
