Hi all. I’m back. Anyone who has ever seen the Film Basquiat may recall the quote from Rene Ricard “Don’t ever tell an artist you like something as they will invariably change it”. Well, that’s kind of how I felt. So over the last month I worked on this painting. It’s big, like 1 meter by 2 meters. It’s part of my new series of paintings. For this series I’m going to do what every disgruntled 16 year old says he’s gonna do. I’m going to make up my own religion. I’m currently very interested in the works of John Smith and L Ron Hubbard. Two men who wrote books that people adopted as legend and in some cases believe as truth. All of these paintings were conceived via Divine Revelation while wandering around Vitkov in Prague. In this painting we see an eaglock descending into an uninhabited Missouri plain. Missouri is in fact sacred American soil similar to eden.
Ok. I’ve been on a video kick lately. sorry. Just that all the packing of all these paintings has me worn out to think about painting. I three this video together for fun. Ciao!
Sorry. I’ve taken a break this weekend from painting. I got bored and made this video about the story of Attis. I didn’t even exaggerate it. It’s actually this insane. This is the holiday which was most likely morphed into what we now know as easter. Jezis. You can’t make this stuff up Enjoy. NSFW
Ladies and Gentlmen. I give you. The Star Wars Kid. The video was originally recorded in November of 2002. The kid in the video is in fact a 14 year old French Canadian who had recorded himself widely swinging a golf ball retreiver around like a double edged light saber. Presumedly imitating Darth Maul from Star Wars Episode 1. As of 2006 it has been estimated by The Viral Factory that the videos had been viewed over 900 million times, making it the most popular viral video ever on the Internet. Unfortunately the attention was not welcomed by the videos creator and it is rumored that after the incident he transferred schools to avoid embarassment. If he only knew that most of the people “lauhging” at him were also laughing at the fact that they possibly would have acted exactly the same way at that age. Everyone looks goofy at age 14. The star wars kid embodies the best of this.

Building 7 of the world trade center complex is the most hotly debated piece of information regarding the September 11th attacks. Building 7 was the third building which collapsed on september 11th. Many people who were skeptical of the government’s official explanation of how, and why all three buildings fell saw building 7 as their smoking bullet piece of evidence making the case for a controlled demolition. The most famous film which investigated alternate theories to 911 was Loose Change. Loose Change was written and directed by Dylan Avery and released on the internet for free. The film soon became the most viewed documentary released on the internet, easily getting millions of views within its first month online. Loose Change quickly became a documentary film which embodied the free nature of the internet. The film was quickly distributed via bit torrent and other file sharing sites making it one of the most sucessful viral projects of all time. Much of the 911 truth movements success in transmitting a message which is skeptical of official explanations of 911 can be traced to this film.
If the JFK assasination has the magic bullet theory perpetuated as truth by the US government then the 911 truth movement has building 7. Building 7 was part of the World Trade Center complex and stood 47 stories high. Hours after the initial attacks the building just seemed to collapse perfectly into its own footprint. Remarks from the building lease holder Larry Silverstein saying “we made the decision to pull, and then we watched the building collapse” raised early suspicion among many. Later a BBC reporter said that WTC Building 7 had collapsed over twenty minutes before it fell at 5:20pm. Make up your own mind but even the 911 commission report by the US government says they have no idea how building 7 collapsed. Making this a modern mystery just dying to be solved.
Damn. Ya’ll just got rick rolled. RIck ROlling someone is simple. Generally it involved a hypertext link which is supposed to be to go to some sort of information. The user is then redirected to a video of Rick Astley singing “never gonna give you up” . The term can also be used in conversation meaning to decieve
“I hope they aren’t rick rolling us into believing there are weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.”
or
“we were totally Rick Rolled into believing there would be hot chicks at this party”
Xenu (also Xemu), pronounced /ˈziːnuː/, according to Scientology founder (and speculative fiction writer) L. Ron Hubbard, was the dictator of the “Galactic Confederacy” who, 75 million years ago, brought billions[1] of his people to Earth in DC-8-like spacecraft, stacked them around volcanoes and killed them using hydrogen bombs. Scientology holds that their essences remained, and that they form around people in modern times, causing them spiritual harm.[2][3] Members of the Church of Scientology widely deny or try to hide the Xenu story.
These events are known within Scientology as “Incident II”, and the traumatic memories associated with them as The Wall of Fire. The story of Xenu is part of Scientologist teachings on extraterrestrial civilizations and alien interventions in Earthly events, collectively described as space opera by Hubbard. Hubbard detailed the story in Operating Thetan level III (OT III) in 1967, warning that this material was “calculated to kill (by pneumonia etc) anyone who attempts to solve it.”[sic][4]
Criticism of the Church of Scientology often includes details of the Xenu story. The Church has tried to keep Xenu confidential[5] but critics say the story should be made public, given the high prices charged for OT III, part of Scientology’s secret “Advanced Technology” doctrines taught only to members who have already contributed large amounts of money to the organization.[6] The Church avoids making mention of Xenu in public statements and has gone to considerable effort to maintain the story’s confidentiality, including legal action on the grounds of both copyright and trade secrecy. Despite this, much material on Xenu has leaked to the public, largely via the Internet. (via wikipedia)
Of Course no scientology post can be complete without citing the current battle between the church of scientology and the online group known as anonymous.The self-styled Anonymous (used as a mass noun) are the multitude of visitors to various websites and forums. The name “Anonymous” is taken from the anonymity under which users post images and comments. It is generally considered as a blanket term – not tied to any monolithic group – for members of the Internet culture.[1] The general public’s introduction to the group began with Project Chanology, a protest against the Church of Scientology. The most visible element of the protest was mass protests of many Church sites worldwide on 10 February 2008.[2] Anonymous lacks a visible hierarchical structure or leaders, instead relying on individuals to contribute to the group on their own.[3] Several mottos are closely associated with Anonymous, the most prominent of which is “We are Anonymous. We are Legion. We do not forgive. We do not forget.

Ok. You got me. This image was actually lifted from the latest edition of L Con Hubbard’s classic “Incident in the Inner Sphere”. I always keep a copy by my paints in case I need some quick inspiration.
Here’s the doodle I threw together of 45 ideas taken from commenters on my last “what should I paint” video. Keep those ideas coming,
I’ve wrote a short story illustrating this image I’ve made. See if you can spot the characters.
All hail the flying spaghetti monster and her mysterious noodly apendage. I heard that she lost her bukkit when Randy Macho Man Savage threw a 5×5x5 rubix cube at her. It was really a shame so Rick Astley showed up with 1 cup and said “let’s have a benefit”. He thought maybe they could raise money to find a green frog named hopkin.
But the evil pedobear hates benefit concerts so he joined forces with Edgar se Cae. They Climbed into their VW bus which had mickey mouse painted on the front, and drove to Mobile Alabama (where rumors of a leprechaun abound). They were right outside of the exit when Grimace popped out from behind a bush in front of McDonalds. Their van slammed into him smearing what looked like purple jam all over the highway. Just then, The Predator crawled out of the ditch and began licking up the purple jam. His tongue slithered like Tiktaalik as he chomped down in his skull. Edgar looked over at pedobear dumbfounded. Pedobear was searching for his ipod which had been lodged under the seat during the acident. Finally pedobear was succesful and after plugging the 1/8 jack back in, the music of Tay Zonday beagan to bump from the back speakers.
The Predator had passed out on the highway and Lo Pan came and performed a ritual so his soul would go to heaven. The clouds parted and a large hand scratching a record came into view. The record was “High Five Hollywood’s Greatest Hits”. Edgar looked up to the heavens as winged long cats gently fluttered down before mounting themselves on the backs of elephants. The elephants first stomped the remains of Grimace into pure gelatin before snorting him up their long noses and spraying him back up into heaven.
