Starting Point

This blog will be used as a way of recording research for my dissertation on the legacy of Punk graphics. As of yet, my proposal is quite broad in terms of the subject matter I am hoping to study. However, I have decided I want to focus on the signs and symbolic nature of the punk subculture in particular. The design had such a strong impact on mainstream imagery and is still being endlessly recycled in contemporary design. My aim is to find out how and why this style of punk graphics has made a mark on (British) mainstream and continues to do so.
