A museum of tacky 9/11 memorabilia from curator April Winchell. All those sparkly animated GIFs that people use to post on their MySpace pages … words fail me.

    Yeesh.

    In the wake of 9/11, Salon published this article on the “kitschification” of the event. It’s still worth a look: http://dir.salon.com/story/news/feature/2002/01/25/kitsch/index.html
