POLICIES

​

Although the impetus for AZIMIZA is sincere, deadly so even, its conceptualization incorporates satire and parody in reflective social commentary intended to spotlight most merciful alignments with Majesty per ; mercy, meditation, and MAXIMS of morality, mortality, monarchy, mescroyants, mala fides, and machinations of mergers, ie; marital.  Satire is a type of storytelling that uses exaggeration, irony, and/or humor to expose often less-than-savory elements about the subject matter (from people, to organizations, to cultural values). Parody, however, imitates style. A writer can parody another writer’s voice, the speech of a politician, or song lyrics. Spoof tends to be a more generic term that usually points to elements of both parody and satire (and a spoof might be more good-natured than a satire or parody).

AZIMIZA is not culpable for others' non-permitted use of our materials, logo, or other intellectual property.  AZIMIZA  IS FOREMOST IDEA ART : AZIMIZA.com is intentionally designed as an independent maximalist minimalist merged showcase of concepts, designs, and products all purchased off-site, without involvement in purchase, production, or fulfillment. Creative conception starts here, and departs to other companies for actualization once desired.  Although others call this drop-ship model many things, it's also known as dêsir-à-porter, literally desire-to-wear, as an homage to prêt-à-porter (ready-to-wear) and designer clothes made to  measure forerunners of the contemporary print-on-demand revolution.  Designing this way is a nimble experiment, adopting new tech and collaborating with multiple companies.  We learn as we go, accessing the same offsite links you do prior to purchasing, which all have varying displays, interfaces, and limited functionality.  All AZIMIZA concepts, artwork and design variables, including incorporation of flag(s), perceived pattern non-alignments, subjective image resolution quality, or any other endearingly wonky quality are intentional, and non-refundable.  Conceptualization is the value purchased, and perfection is neither an expectation nor goal.  Art wildly  = purchase wisely.  If you have any questions about,  or issue with a product purchased, contact the company directly from which you purchased your product. 

 

LITERAL ARTISTS' RIGHTS AND FIGURATIVE ARTISTIC LICENSE :  AZIMIZA reserves all rights to content, comedy, artwork, designs, and concepts, legally protected, not to be copied nor transmitted in any way, part or whole, without written permission, and intend to be interpreted as satirical cultural commentary, including fair-use snippet showcases of non-AZIMIZA designed products as educational conceptual and seasonally curated contextual inspiration.  Any literally interpreted offense taken individually or collectively is a biased and potentially intentional misinterpretation, inflation, risking infringement upon free speech rights, and liability for disparagement and slander of AZIMIZA's non-literal, cheeky, provocative, harlequin, mocking, trickster, jester, good will intent.  Often we do not mean what we say.  Our designs don't actually appear as we suggest they do under a microscope........though, potentially literally under a magnifying glass....it's not a claim, it's a joke, and either you get it or you don't...but you not getting it, doesn't make it not a joke.  Nothing we conceive, create, or share is an incitement or directive to agree or take action.  We dig peaceful protest, civil disobedience when necessary, and self-defense....not violence for anarchist sake, though we do think hypothetical anarchy trumps a literal fascist orwellian surveillance state, regardless of how tech-sexy its slippery slope.  You accept we'll convey concepts and develop designs that you, anyone, any entity may intentionally or unintentionally misinterpret literally, non-satirically, or plum erroneously, and disagree strongly with, for which AZIMIZA is released from all liability and responsibility to align with, defend against, correct, or engage erroneous or opposing viewpoints  You're invited to our table, as a guest, customer, and fellow social commentary, parody, satire, comedy arts supporter, but our house rules include a more widely open mind than mouth with critical axes to grind, that values a myriad of interpretations, especially opposing, and artistic values potentially beyond your own, to increase versus decrease the free ingenuity of comedic and artistic expression.  Comedic and art freedoms of expression are societal security against sacrificing other freedoms at too great a cost.  You agree to follow your individual desires, by focusing upon what you want to manifest vs. upon anything you don't like us creating.  AZIMIZA hopes to inspire you, both positively and provocatively, to design your own original iteration of a social commentary, parody, satire, comedic and/or art idea "dêsir-à-porter" site.

 

AZIMIZA thrives offline, no customer service. no office, no phone....just peace-tester, jester artists and a couple fearless lawyers hunting down soul-sucking knock-off pirates....while developing fresh desired jests, designs, generating and discovering inspiration, and delightfully.....diligently.....disturbing the status quo.  We hope you'll enjoy, especially if challenged, the thrill of returning to, and departing from AZIMIZA again...and again...bon voyage!
