beer makes me feel stupid. expeciale when i spill it in my lap.

i have been in south beach for over a week now, and still not commited a SINGLE ACT of artistic vandalism!

so the other day i a talking

guy: so what are you interested in?
me: my own special brand of art terrorism.
g. oooh what a dirty word.
m. yeah i like it.
g. so don't you think that its bad to force your opinion on others?
m. no, some people are just to lazy to listen.

i see it kind of like the theme of Focus, by Arthur Miller.
this guy buys some glasses and people start to notice he looks kind of jewish. soon people are dicriminating against him. this guy would have NEVER fought the fight. he was lazy, but he was forced to stop and think. the ordinary man soon became a witness and picked up a banner.

art terrorism accomplishes the same thing. it MAKES people stop and think.

so im on the bus coming from adventura mall and there are these two school kids talking to me. they are going to go to this backyard wrestling thing to fight, a dangerous sport indeed. it seems that you get to bring your own weapon.

so i ask: what would each of you bring?

the cute jap girl says: id bring a wine bottle and a lighter.
the gnarl toothed guy: id bringa a base ball bat with "goya" (or something) written on it.

i saiz: id take a painting of a sunflower.

then i saiz. along with a wine bottle, why dont you buy some fortune cookies? you could empty out the bottle and stick the fortunes inside so when you broke it over the guys head the fortunes would fly into the audience. if you got a baseball bat you could inscribe the directions to a romantic dinner onto it, soon after the fight you could go and have a nice supper. or hell, even fight in the dining area. they didnt have many ideas for my painting.

some concepts for art terror:

Lincoln road has several lights in the cement sidewalk, and today i saw a road crew working on them. i could make translucent film slide style things and then put them inside the lights so they are projected to the sky. i would have to do a lot of screwing.

also, i could get a roll of paper and write poetice terror phrases all down it, then roll it up. i could go to second floor at adventura and throw it over the side, watching it unravel as it goes down.

i was also thinking i could design a

A R T TERRORISM

visit a groundzero near you!

flyer, and steal a million copies from kinkos. after that i would go around town stealing all the newspapers out of the vendors, and replacing them with a ton of flyers.
