The barricade tape that reads Everything is Ok.The website is a collection of links and messages meant to challenge viewers? day to day thoughts, perspectives and actions. The initiative [nominated for the People's Design Awards], launched by mine design studio in 2006, seeks to encourage ?positive action? among the masses. They got the word out about the site through their ?Activists Kits? which included ironic barricade tape that read ?everything is ok?. The tape has been spotted around the country, from US elections to ?flash mob? pillow fights in San Fransisco. They describe their project as ?a kind of social design experiment in subversive positivism. It explores the relationship between medium and message, challenges accepted modes of communication, and provides everyday citizens with tools for social commentary.?
