That was the first transmission by Agent 23 from the Office, he's definitely human and with a funny accent.
The High Intelligence Office is a mysterious agency that releases revelatory files for the good of humanity (!) These files consist of powerful statements and concise design on eco-friendly handmade printed t-shirts and posters. The office idea is tongue-in-cheek while the statements and products are real.
The files:
• Don't believe everything you think. Wake up, we miss you.
• The ego is a ring of defense around nothing.
• Connection is the fabric of life. Life is relationship.
• Time is in your head. You are always here & now.
• Replace fear of the unknown with curiosity.
• We are one. We just have the same feelings at different times.
and more to come...
The idea:
Creating awareness of these issues on a big scale, in a mainstream way. Using design on t-shirts and posters is a great way of getting a message across. We obviously know that this will never replace a book! Their function is to make people wonder about these issues and invite them to investigate further.
The plan:
The funds raised will be used for printing the t-shirts and posters, and also for building a community website where we can all discuss these topics, back them up with serious info, question everything, and learn from it all. Each file release will be centred around a theme such as relationship, freedom, authority, fear, identity, love, etc; and will be accompanied by a strong message that gets printed on the t-shirts and posters.

The products:
Check the rewards on the right hand side of the page and pick the one for you. You can get one, three, or all six T-SHIRTS and/or POSTERS shipped to your door ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. We'll contact you at the end of the project to ask for your design choice, your size, and your address. They will be printed and shipped from England.
The posters are not just digital prints. Screen printing is a craft, check it out here. The t-shirts are Earth Positive, high quality 100% organic cotton. Ethically made and manufactured solely using sustainable energy generated from wind and solar power. Handmade printed with water based inks that contain no harmful ingredients at all.
These t-shirts are slightly more expensive than normal due to its eco-friendliness and healthy qualities. The other option would have been the average T-shirt, made from pesticide-sprayed cotton, in a sweatshop in a third world country, dyed with chemical inks and printed with harmful PVC plastics. No, thank you.
About us:
We are Francisco Mazza and Amanda Cozens, a graphic designer from Argentina and a counselling student from Wales, who live in beautiful St Ives, England for the summer and California in winter. We've been interested in these topics for a long time and finally decided to do something about it. We hope to get your help for printing these messages. Without your support this project can't happen.
High quality GFSmith heavyweight colored paper. Water based inks. They will be shipped in a safe poster tube.

Thank you so much for reading this and considering backing our project.
If there are any questions we haven't answered yet, please send us a
message.
We'd love to have your support and make this happen. Please tell your friends as soon as you have done it and spread the word (well, the link in this case) to infinity. There is a Facebook and Twitter button below the video at the top of the page, please like us!
Last thing: All the printing is being produced with the help of a small local company, so if we (they) get overwhelmed by orders we would need to add a limit to the amount of prints and tees available. For the moment we can print as many as we want.
We thank you. We like you. Maybe this is Love.
