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

Don't forget Thom, he made trashbooks. Extremely tidy but wonderful ones.

Comment by De Villo Sloan on April 19, 2012 at 7:50pm

Erni, the Spahn Ranch - that's it! Forgot that you had actually visited the place.

 

Other Trashbook projects - ok, I admit moving slowly - is a translation of DK's Trashpo into English & some sort of collection of Neil's TrAshemics to see if they do contain prophecies, but the D-Koder ring doesn't work with Neil's stuff.

A&S Are you a Trashpo Banana?

 

Comment by Lynn Radford on April 19, 2012 at 7:48pm

Diane, I could no more take Dean's advice than I could quit digging in my trash for bits and pieces to add to my collages! For better or worse, you're my people now...

Comment by Lynn Radford on April 19, 2012 at 7:41pm

Dear Dean,

Thanks for the kind warning, but I really do think this is where I belong... The humor, the trash, the poetry, the art, the mail, the misguided, misdirected, multi-purpose mix... I had considered the Bananas... for the obvious FUN you mentioned, but I'll have to catch up on my correspondence before allowing myself another group tie. My trash bin is overflowing and so is the list of folks to whom I owe mail!

Lynn

Comment by DKeys on April 19, 2012 at 6:11pm

wow Dean--thanks for scanning the whole thing you must have carpal tunnel by now. I consider DVS' fanzine a trashbook or sorts and Neil Gordon has made a trashbook or two or three

Comment by DKeys on April 19, 2012 at 6:08pm

Lynn, as for taking Dean's advice, well, it's too late for that. You've been a member since '09 but we're way behind on our mailings (I won't name name or point fingers). You don't have to make trashy art or trashpo, but since I know you're into recycled art, well, yes you do!

KDJ's tell all book is being written by a ghost writer. And I mean a ghost literally (my ex). they communicate via texts on a daily basis

Comment by De Villo Sloan on April 19, 2012 at 6:00pm

DharmaDaDa Neil, Charlie Manson's parole hearing caused a flurry of media reflections documenting his amazing career. The celebrity culture is pretty sick.

 

Well, yeah, they lived on an abandoned ranch that was also used for filming westerns. Charlie had connections. After all, the Beach Boys recorded one of his songs.

 

The only thing we can do is dig into DK's past and see if there are any Manson connections. I doubt it. But this is the same research team that discovered you are Gordon Liddy's son.

 

KDJ might now be willing to come forward and do a tell-all interview. Mr. Stubbs' attempt was silenced.

 

 

Comment by Dean aka Artist in Seine on April 19, 2012 at 5:48pm

Dear Lynn,

My advice to you is to get out while you can!  Keep running!  Join the Banana group instead.  The banana group has, well should we say Banana people, but at least you know how to peel them.

  Less trash, more fun.

Dean
