improbable monument proposal

       In this hateful world, people cannot get along and put aside his or her differences, and just live peacefully. Due to all of the hate in this world, people cannot seem to put aside his or her differences and get along. Being the idealist I am, I am active in the advancement of peace and hope to one day have world wide unity.

        My proposal is a statue of a being that is of every race, both genders, with an androgynous  apearence, encompasses all religions, and is sexually fluid (meaning that it doesn't have a defined sexual orientation). The "Equality Being" also does not have any specific stature or class.

       Equality being will exemplify overall peaceful energy and will bring awareness to the world's inequality. This monument will have symbols engraved onto its body of every religious emblem. Since EB (Equality Being)is of both genders, he/she is a hermaphrodite.

       I hope for EB to help remind the people of this small world to conceive the injustice, discrimination, and prejudice we have all gone through. When this monument is built, it will, by law, be in place forever!


here is a very basic sketch:

The final product will be created in photoshop, illustrator, and sketch-up. I also need to find the optimum location for my monument!

Bicycle Day- April 19th 2011

       This art event is in commemoration to Albert Hoffman's (creator of LSD) experience on LSD for the first time. He ingested a minute amount of he recently synthesized chemical and he went on a mystical, hallucinogenic bicycle ride. He started a cultural spiritual revolution, on accident. Ever since then, people have been highly affected by the invention of LSD.

      The event started off with discusions from artists, philosophers, psychologists, and spiritualists speaking about the importance of pyschedelics in culture. The speakers were Ralph Metzner Ph.D (Harvard Psilocybin Project), Rick Strassman MD (first person in over twenty years to conduct US government-funded clinical research involving the use of psychedelic drugs.), Bob Jesse (spiritualist who is changing the way we think of religion), and of course....

Alex Grey---One of the most prominent visionary artists who has the ability to conceptualize spirituality in material form through the use of visionary art -- painting.  Here are some of his paintings:

 After the discussions, Alex and Allyson Grey, along with other visionary artists, did live painting with music and drinks! It was a lot of fun! I even had the opportunity to give Alex Grey a ceramic piece I made that represents one of his paintings "Bardo Being". I put my email address on the bottom of it, so hopefully, he will contact me.  :)

This event relates to Conceptual Information Arts on a different level; through the use of art and pysechedelics - we learn about the brain and consciousness. Since psychedelic drugs have been such controversial, under-looked invention, we as (artists, philosophers, psychologists, musicians, writers, and any other creative individual) need to teach people the important purpose of psychedelics.

Google Earth Proposal

Exploring Mapping through Google Earth:

For my geo-narrative, I am going to create a tour of all the places I have been in this crazy/small world! I'll start off where I was born, in Mission Viejo, California. I will then jump to Johanesburg, South Africa. Then Christchurch, New Zealand. Cambridge and London, England. Melbourne, Australia. Hong Kong, China. And of Course San Francisco, California.

My other idea is my biking trip from Santa Barbara to Laguna Niguel, California. I will map out where exactly our path was, and all the exciting events that happened along the way. Including being called a prick by James Bond (Pierce Brosnan), getting a popped tire, and all the cool places things we encountered on the way.

Finished Chick-Fil-Gay Logo Heist

Padraig McCoid:

The uproar against Chick-fil-A started in late 2011, when Equality Matters revealed that the company had given close to $2 million to anti-gay groups in 2009. When the term "anti-gay" is used, it does not refer to groups that merely oppose homosexuality; rather, it indicates a group that propagates falsehoods about homosexuals in a deliberate attempt to cause harm. The organizations in question have been labeled hate groups by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). Each year, the SPLC provides a list of hate groups for law enforcement and the public. These anti-gay groups that benefit from Chick-fil-A's corporate dollars utilize a rhetoric that disparages homosexuals, spreading lies that play on the ignorance of an overwhelming majority in American society. This manipulation of the American people must be addressed directly if there is any hope to effect positive change.

Two of the hate groups Chick-fil-A donated to are the Family Research Council (FRC) and Focus on the Family.

The son of a bitch company Chick-fil-A is incredibly homophobic and retarded! Although they may have good chicken, they do not have good morals! Chick-fil-A is a big supporter of prop 8 and dont believe in equal rights!
