Hilarious video DVS. You're right that DKult is way better because we believe in Trashpo as a path to elevated states of filth awareness

Love that Neil-trashtube! Where are all the DKult tech people? a How To would be a great idea--traceing the path of trash from procurement, to glueing, to mail box, to mail artist and probably in the trash again!

This is a sneak preview of something I am sending to Lovely Lisa Skybridge Studios

In addition to the DKult slant, Neil, there's probably a more practical slant involving Trashpo documentaries showing how people go out & select Trash, where they find it, how they pick it up, compose their work.

 

I see a lot of people interested in "How To."

Comment by Neil Gordon on June 12, 2012 at 4:48pm

Great idea fearless leader! We need DKults techie's to help us out! We can call it Trashtube?????

Comment by De Villo Sloan on June 12, 2012 at 4:15pm

After establishing themselves through mail-art, the Church of the Sub Genius got into promotional vidoes. DKult is way better.

Neil, I was thinking that DKult needs a youtube video. I wouldn't really know where to begin as I'm not good at that kind of stuff. Maybe it would give trashpo publicity and world wide acceptance? Dkult loves the right as it gives us something to push against!!

Comment by Neil Gordon on June 12, 2012 at 3:07pm

Glad you like the mini-po Sarah!!!!!

Comment by Neil Gordon on June 12, 2012 at 3:06pm
