We all know and love Slavoj's tics and quirks, one of them being his propensity to pull on his t-shirt: tuck tuck tuck... The rest of this parody mash-up design is self-explanatory (best enjoyed on the yellow background/garment for the most iconic likeness but other colours work as well).

- Sure.. but coffee first !

Slavoj Žižek / Danzig metal band album cover parody mash-up design to pay tribute to Slovenian philosopher’s early punk rock dissident background years in Ljubljana.

Parody mash-up of the Godfather movie poster and Mortal Kombat character, thundergod Raiden (as portrayed by Christopher Lambert in the first movie adaptation of the franchise) with the cracked medallion from Mortal Kombat 9's time travel storyline filling in for the red rose boutonniere.

This tee design is a mash-up of Django Unchained movie poster style and the iconic Kunaj (or Kunai) which is a harpoon-like weapon thrown by Mortal Kombat ninja Scorpion: "Get over here!"

This one is a Mortal Kombat-themed parody of the famous Shepard Fairey’s “OBEY” and “Andre the Giant Has a Posse” street art master pieces.

This pop culture mash-up tee design cross-references the signature visual style of the globaly renown & recognizable chewing gum brand 'Orbit' and the iconic, poster-boy character from the classic genre defining fighting video game franchise Mortal Kombat that goes by the name of Sub-Zero, Chinese Ninja warrior wearing a mask (the design hasn't been printed anywhere else yet).

Since the recent Comic-Con announcement that Ben Affleck is to star as Batman not only in the Dawn of Justice movie but in the stand-alone Batman sequel that will come afterwards it looks like we’d better get used to the “Benman” after all.

For the Slovenian philosopher, Slavoj Žižek, Dreamworks Studio’s animated movie “Kung Fu Panda” is a perfect embodiment of the way a disavowed ideology fonctions in modern times we live in when for an idea to spread and to flourish noone even has to effectively “believe” in it… Thus the concept of this pop culture/culture theory design mash-up that blends the film’s main hero, Po the Panda, the master of ancient Kung Fu martial art, with the present day Master of popular culture analysis, the great and powerful Slavoj Ž. himself!

Comrade Slavoj Zizek is notoriously known for his incredible aptitude for reiteration of the favorite jokes from his Communist Yugoslavian past, recapitulation of the same old stories and examples he uses to clarify his leftist views on political economy and all other kinds of rinse-and-repeat type of approach he’s not afraid to apply without restraint in his theoretical and practical body of work.

Coffee-without-milk instead of coffee-without-cream serving movie scene from Ernst Lubitsch’s black and white classic “Ninocka” is one of Slavoj Žižek’s all time favorite anecdotal examples that Slovenian marxist-lacanian philosopher uses to illustrate.. well, basically all sorts of things, the complex functioning of Jacques Lacan’s “objet petit a” (object small a) topological concept being only one of particulars. Thus the idea of an imaginary creamers brand designed to let you enjoy your morning coffee neither with cream (or milk) nor just plain but specifically with-without-cream which is already whole other cup of coffee – just the way you like it!
