my clients were usually on the receiving end of cheap meaningless copies, when they rejected they were garanteed to be on the receiving end of te horizontal gravitational force of my left fist...

I'm not hating here, but are the misspelling and bad grammar in the mission statement part of the concept?

@MrDinky: I think it goes to the 2nd category.
I'm not saying his work is bad, I only guess we won't say any of with work involving 400layers in photoshop.
I like some of his work -mission10-, while I think some other just look like trying too hard to be arty -mission14-.*I wonder how possible employers will react seeing some of his work ; the U-rine, the spit project, the pwyw book.

a clever concept is about disintermediating viral long-tail network effects by reinventing user-centred folksonomies and engage citizen-media feeds and integrate viral ecologies, Cluetrain tagclouds and citizen-media communities...

I dont think his work is bad either. It does stand out as student work but thats about it.
- MrDinky0
dyspl, potential employers for him would be highly creative shop or fashion ad agency

I think this guy can be both highly conceptual and commercial

One thing to add : In my opinion, a clever concept wouldn't need to have an explanation text.

"the 'cleverness' of his work is neither commercially viable nor critically or intellectually engaging"
Hit the nail on the head.
What exactly would you hire this kid to do? "Hey the client needs a bottle of piss ASAP, get on it Eric!"
- Nostradamus0
The work makes me think Eric spent 4 years at Art School, graduated, and realized "I don't have anything worth a shit in my portfolio! Better whip up something!"
- You come across as jealous.allornothing
