I'm a THING unto myself

About Me


Sloppy genious fumbles again! DAnkashin Maestro..Emancipated minoR for wrong-way-rok-n-rollMuch of the "ART" you see here was made by yours truly .. yes I'm a WINKY plain clothes Freak,(with An endless surreal brew of original and altered retro 16mm film footage slide-photgraphy , gothic mood-improving collage close-ups,and a basement full of confunktion ) .Its Like a jalopy in heaven on a covert laundry basket assault. I am a pivotal member of the amazing, theoretical rock band with no songs, PUS MUPPET. We think and conceive like anythin, practice or perform rarely, but we've been rocking our own worlds, and perhaps a few others, for eleven years now. and there is no end in sight. Oh God! Its like riding up through the clouds on a feathery sofa that marks the subtle apex of musical evolution. HA!.. ...a ROk FOe-in Faux Rock. A retatrdo rokker , Specializing in experimental use of voice as instrument, vocal-cord-feedback, ripped-throat-singing (no effects required), Sanskrit Chants.etc....
"GODZ GONE" is gone, it was 3x10 foot PUBLIc ART on a 12-foot pole by Yours Truly in Silverlake: ##1639 Silverlake Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90026 (Right next to 7-eleven and Club Spaceland)! I've been Heavily Steeped in Knowledge, but, forgot most of it. I'm moderately Spiffy! I like all my droors open, .. That leave me either a Ragtime Hypocrite or a Modern Vaudevillian?. a Social oddity? I've definitely got hella' Megalopolis Symplex. Perhaps i'm just Civilization's Purgative. "MMUUkkuukkaamm+ RIGAMOrchi!" ...and I've made a dozen bizzare little films and more chunks o art than I care to store. a Multi-veined-art-guerilla and very Liberal aggressor. I've written many things; in depth descriptions of imagined, ghastly auto-accidents and other more drawn out tragedies; perverse fantasies; and I love to critique. Exposees Abound. the Infa-MOUSelike - Founder of recovering Pimps anonymous with Drunk Nuts, and abused hands. an Inhalation Victim. Love rok 'n roll girls with sadistic charm, but prefer quaint librarians or stern veterinary technicians. Bumped, clumped and jumped, an anti-art star in a punk-rok-slump-attack, waiting patiently and Rooting for a ZOMBIE take-over of Washington DC~~OH and i'm also....**** A Swiss Bitch who shoots low frequently. I am often stricken with diarrhea of the mouth, or in this case, of the keyboard. I'm Half-Bermudian, with Pirate tendencies,====== ***a sporadically stoked mutta ficka~~****+++and yes I strongly feel that George W. Bush is a snivelling hypocrite war criminal bitch))))!oh and I recently had a pet phase in a return to my childhood; lizards, Bruiser and Psycho 2 (fence lizards) and Irwin (an alligator lizard); praying manti, fish and tadpoles in a hydroponic bathroom, and a large locust named Cinderella (has been set free cause she was jumpin into the sides of the terrarium)+They were all set free+ ++ R.I.P.: Psycho the Fence lizard, Percival the Alligator Lizard, and Rudolph Valentino the Praying Mantis+++

My Interests



I'd like to meet:

Yo mama!No really now. Hidden deep within the star-shaped, body-encrusted heart of modern shlock, beats the rare treasure of true crimson-bold-love. people who want to buy or commision art; plus musicians, promoters, club or restaurant owners, liquor store dudes, exotic gangsters, loose women, etc. I make art for hanging on walls or putting under your toupee too so be aware! Supplies are unlimited. Just ask. I am alive. Don't get a boo-boo on your too-too. uNdulate your hairdoo

NOT CUMFY AT ALL!******************************************************** ******* I draw Rok Show flyers/posters, people, animated films, spontaneous things and bizzarre erotica. I make CD art, I also invoke deep psycho-logic cross sections of our times and other times in the form of Plexiglas-collage-fossils, often appearing as opaquely black comedies. I make unique Illuminated signs for outside businesses + self Illuminated art for nightclubs and other dark places. Many of the images you see here are details of larger scapesCRUStY JIzZZ
