Canadians “Spock” Five Dollar Banknotes in Honour of Leonard Nimoy (2015)

People expressed their condolences via Facebook, Twitter, and other social media sites, and the Canadian Design Resource (CDR) even tweeted a call to action: “‘Spock’ your $5 bills for Leonard Nimoy,” they wrote. If that sounds totally foreign to you, it’s a cultural phenomena that involves a pen and turning the $5 bill into a convincing portrait of Spock. “This series of Canadian bills was an easy target,” explains CDR’s publisher Todd Falkowsky to Quartz.
