New Music Update - Weird/Experimental The Electric Grandfather – She Said (some shit) – This is an amazing experimental pop artist out of Florida we believe. They claim to be from many places, but our detective work has discovered that most of the early material at least was written and recorded in St. Petersburg, Florida, in the grand tradition of Jack Keruoac. Who knew that town had more than just old people, then again, the band is called the electric grandfather. We give this one two thumbs up! https://soundcloud.com/the-electric-grandfather

"Mourning the man behind ‘The Breakfast Club’"

Are you serious? Mourning/morning. Breakfast happens in the morning. Ha, ha. Someone at CNN continues to slip shit like this in for the obit posts. The last one I remember was the special little detail that Farrah Fawcett Died from ANAL cancer. They actually put ANAL cancer on the front page of their website. Whatever. Maybe it's not a big deal. Fox did the same thing. Your thoughts are appreciated.

Monkey man out.

Hello all.

Is anyone out there? Not sure if that noise I heard was an echo, or just a lot of folks growing up :( I don't even really know what that meant, but it sounded good.
In fact, if you could, play some sad song, and then read that line again.

I wanted to drop a link here to my new website. I'm trying to get some pictures and pieces up online, along with offering all of my wonderful multi-media sservices.

Be on the look out for a new blog, and even a facebook page in the coming weeks.

Here is my new site (it will redirect you) PhilBardi.com

More soon.

Got this image from indevelopment.org
But, the image is actually a fake ad from a series of comics called 1963, published by image comics.

Belgium pics part 2

Update 12/17/08

I was in Belgium for a group show from Nov 29th to Dec 3rd. I stayed in the city of Gent and these are a few of the hundreds of pictures I took of this artfully constructed city. Everywhere I turned, there was this amazing architecture, which felt kind of fake - like is this really real. It felt like Disney world - particularly at night when the city was lit up.

Also, some of you may be wondering what's going on with the black face and the black man chocolate figurines. Well, the short answer is, this character is known as Zwarte Piet - Santa's "helper". Kind of like an elf but not...more like a slave. Originally Zwarte Piet put bad kids in a sack and beat them. Now, he helps Santa bring goodies to all the good boys and girls. Anyway, it's an interesting bit of Belgian culture that would be seen as incredibly offensive over here. Check out this Music video to see what i am talking about.

Some pics from my trip to Belgium. Enjoy! I will try to explain later. For now, take a look at the pics - all taken from a town in Belgium called Ghent.
