At first glance, I was truly horrified! A genetically modified pet,that looks like a doll? I am so sick of GE foods and the large amount of animal cruelty that needs to just STOP. I am scared to even look at this site any further, but curiosity has got the better of me! Aren’t you at least a bit intrigued , at the same time sick to your stomach?
Come with me……….let’s check this out together right now.Here is what one of the Genpets look like, frightening, I mean who would buy this for there kid may I ask?
Brace yourself, here’s the pitch!

And the nerve, they bio-engineered them to live for one year or three years…what has the world come to?
The website has a meet and greet that states:
‘Someone who paints a tree, unless they’ve posted a note beside the painting saying “this is not a tree” (“ce ne pas une pipe?”) would then be a ‘hoax’ for the same reason. It is the image of an object that does not exist. Again, like many works of creation be it a novel or film, the idea is to get the viewer thinking about the issues it brings up, but it requires a certain suspension of disbelief on the part of the viewer. It baffles me how many people are like “oh ha ha you got me”. The idea isn’t to ‘get you’…. it’s to help get you thinking about these issues, no matter what your opinion…. If I simply shout ‘It’s not real!’ on the main page, or throw my opinion in your face with a large artist statement all that is lost, and then there’s pretty much zero point to the entire website then. While I don’t personally ever want to see genpets become a reality, I really like that there’s such a strong dynamic in opinions. So many people want one and so many are aggressively against it.’
I’ve written the Genpets website with a heavy dose of sarcasm, so while you can’t see “the canvas” (and people complain that it’s too ‘real’, simply reading the website should be enough to kick in that this isn’t real. But failing that, and the fact there’s no prices, there’s no out of package shots, and that science isn’t at this level yet, there’s this explanation you’re hopefully reading.’
And now when you see Facebook people posting the GENPETS website, you can tell them what it is REALLY all about, and WHY!

Genpets is 100% meant to illicit an emotional reaction but it’s up to you the viewer to decide what that reaction is. That’s why I’m more interested in writing an explanation like this then some heavy handed essay. I think that is where a lot of contemporary art fails.

Getting all out of whack over a hoax. Great use of time.

really, read on.........the cause they have is amazing, clever and noble.........not out of whack at all, which proves our point that folks do not READ.
Perhaps you should go back to our article, and read "the rest of the story".
