ONE:
Kinetic Steam Works:
It began three years ago as the Miss Rockaway Armada, a group of New York City area artists and assorted others who decided to travel down the Mississippi on very handmade rafts bedecked and festooned with art.In August of 2008, the Hudson River will be the canvas, from Albany-Troy all the way down to Brooklyn. Seven crafts are scheduled to float down the river The boats will be powered by alternate energy systems, which is where K.S.W. comes in. KSW restored an old paddle-wheel steamboat (see below).
In New York, K.S.W.'s steamboat (arriving by truck) will support an enormous sculptural array installed by an artist named Swoon, the larger project's creative leader.
They had a steam powered blender making margaritas all day. The boat was christened at 4:00PM Pacific time.
TWO:
A FUCKING FIRE:
There was a FUCKING FIRE ABOVE THE BUS STOP HOUSE THIS MORNING! One of the upstairs neightbors nearly burned the apartment down with her terrarium lamp. Lucky Abdul-Latif woke me up to get out of the smoke. The fire department came out in full force. Everything is fine now.
Roast Bearded Dragon Lizard anyone? Makes a lovely breakfast! Yum!
