A Meta-Consumer is a person who uses consumption as a means to comment on or question consumption. Meta-Consumers self-consciously marshal the goods, services, performatives, and representations (language, image, and data) of consumption in order to transform them into aestheticized and/or politicized concepts, activities, and objects that redirect and reorient users understanding of and relationship to consumption and the world(s) it creates.
