ltmurnauI remember my sister and I pretending we were Bugs and Daffy and dancing in front of the TV when that tune came on.
Uh, when we were 5 and 7 years old, I hasten to add...
But I am kind of excited about tonight, the "Carnival of Destruction". My old mail-art friend Anna is in town for the show, and tomorrow there is an Artist Trading Card (ATC) session at the gallery where we will reclaim some of the smashed junk and make new stuff out of it.
The last two nights after supper Aki and I have been sitting at the dining room table making ATCs and larger art cards to trade or sacrifice to the "Atsu Massager". His little cards are great. He was using a set of small rubber stamps of simple geometric shapes I had to build up into houses, bridges etc. and adding interesting captions. His images are full of movement and imagination, they are all one-offs too. Meanwhile, mine are static and multiple, though I am trying for different effects.
The show goes until midnight, I will be there early and tend the machine. Maybe I'll leave when I run out of drawings for the machine to eat. Damn, should have brought my aquarelle crayons for on-the-spot inspiration.
Anyway, maybe I will post a picture of the machine later.
