Food for Thought on Remixing

Perhaps Astronaut Love Triangle should take on a bit more remixing.

Normative has some interesting things to say about remixing and remix culture.

A Poem by Blogger Craig Chen

We're not the only people who think about these things. Fourth year medical student, Craig Chen, has written a poem titled Astronaut Love Triangle. Here is an excerpt:

In this vacuum closet who could wonder
that three warmths would find each other?

Maybe we need a few more Astronauts.

Ross Sisters - Potato Salad

Aggie and Manny, some interesting movement options demonstrated in this piece.

And the lyrical complexity is right up our alley.

We're Professional Visual Artists Now!

Hey guess what!

We sold our first piece of visual art. Not only that, but it is a found object piece. Also before we sold it, it was in a gallery show, Hit and Run 2 at the Gallery Petit Mort, along with works by Chris Love, Keir MacDonald and Jenn Farr. And if that's not enough, the buyer is famous local blogger and art collector, Zoom.

Here she is holding her new acquisition. Key Ring is made from organ keys that Aggie found outside a church in the Glebe, a frame I found several years ago, fabric that Manny acquired, and backing and screws that Jimmy acquired. Jimmy is also the one who put it all together.

Edible Performance Art: the Poutizza

Several months ago, Jimmy Jettz had a dream. In this dream he saw two great foods come together, the pizza and the poutine.

This Wednesday, instead of practising our old material, developing new pieces or working on choreography, the members of Astronaut Love Triangle gathered to create and eat the world's first poutizza.

As expected, it was another artistic triumph for Jimmy. More nourishing than his love ballad, Caroline, more energy-packed than his Large American Car.

Although we all agreed that next time, he should try it with a thin crust.
