I've just returned from the future, and it's New Orleans, people. A whirlwind week in The Big Easy with
incredible music (I reconnected with a saxophonist I played in a band with 30 years ago), interesting sights (for instance an outlet mall's foodcourt on the Mighty Mississipp), all culminating with an absolutely incredible art show titled Reflex Machines at local gallery Chemical 14, curated by Dick-Head artist extraordinaire Brent Houzenga!
Just look at this picture of Brent and me with Phil's birthday cake, burning with the fire of a thousand suns and 97 candles. Now there are a couple of guys happy to be Dicking it up.
Below are some photos from the gallery. The exhibit will be up until early January, so if you're in the area, do not miss this. Highlights included, stylized wardrobe inspired by Blade Runner's Pris, the "Dissbot" which takes a picture of you before hurling an insult your way, the ridable Isomorph bug which growled and gurgled malevolently as people clung to its bucking thorax, PRRIC's own Reverse Psychic, an exploded and neon-gutted wall-mounted dolphin, and so much more... Oh and I gave a thought-provoking lecture replete with PowerPoint slides.
