"If trashpo has taught me anything its that every windblown street corner and cyclone fence is a veritable Dick Blick of free art materials."

Dkult Medical correspondence school?

While Erni Bar took up a break from his security duties at DKult to shop for fresh produce, and the pit bulls were napping, we  had an unfortunate security breech at Dkult. Photos of our secret lab have been leeked to the public. We need a 'clean-up' team to get on this a.s.a.p. Please submit your 'plausible explanations' for this photo that we can use to make our statement to the public.

Trash Generators! Thats such a great concept!!!!

Comment by Not Hi Ng on July 12, 2012 at 3:43pm

DVS, DK, I actually sent out three of the Trash Talk Generators but the third wasn't sent as an add and pass. I wasn't sure how long they would continue to work. It's so cool hearing about their journeys.

not to be confused with brownies

Comment by DKeys on July 12, 2012 at 1:14pm

Yes, the original had the record option which made it groundbreaking. What's  more if that he rescued the recording devices from the dumpster!

Comment by De Villo Sloan on July 12, 2012 at 12:57pm

DK, the one I have must be based on the piece that won the TP, but you can record your own message too. I don't know if that was a feature of the first one. Yeah, I'm writing about "spoken word" Trashpo. I guess people will have to work on inventing Trashspeak.

Comment by DKeys on July 12, 2012 at 12:41pm

DVS-is there another one circulating? NoTh inGgg sent me one too that is now in the loving hands of Amy Irwen. Glad to know there are more than one RoadKill Tour Buses. He won the TrashPoLitzer for the first one. I wasn't able to find an online trashtalk generator, but what I meant to say was we need a TrashPo Talk Generator that converts everything to trashspeak!

Comment by Nancy Bell Scott on July 12, 2012 at 5:47am

Thanks Claire, I"ll look again. So far only self methods turned up and those tend not to be good around here :--}

Comment by De Villo Sloan on July 12, 2012 at 3:51am

DK, concerning the Trash Talk Generator:

Not Hi Ng has invented one, which he sent to me as an add & pass. It works! You can hear him talking & then a rooster starts crowing. You can record your own message. 

I'm featuring it in "Decadence of Trashpo III" that will be posted in a few days. Then I'll send the "Trash Talk Generator" to someone else. It is so cool I'm having trouble parting with it.
