Seems the world hasn’t infact gone mad…and the Gen Pets are just a spoof. A viral campaign instigated by an upandcoming sculptor, whose purpose for the project appears to be a mixture of commercial art, social commentary and job-seeking. Such is the power of viral that if you Google “Gen Pets” you now get over 3.5 million results. Not bad exposure.
