Aloha Tiki Tribe! So I need help on a project. I've seen some cool stuff on YOU TUBE where people take their favorite song and mix pictures or film clips to them. I really would like to do that with an classic EXOTICA tune. The tune "Tiki" by Martin Denny. That song with a slow fading slide show of all my Tiki-Art. Sound cool? Only problem is... I don't know nothing about the tech side of things anymore, and don't have the soft where to make it and post it to YOU TUBE. The time it would take me to learn the soft wear, and do it , would take away from me making art for my next show... way too much time I bet. So, if any one has some time, and wants to work on a cool tiki thing... let's talk! There are some cool Martin Denny things up on YOU TUBE, - but not "Tiki". I love that song, cause it's got a swanky big band sound. If some one wants to work on that with me I'll GIVE, yes GIVE for FREE, you a 16" x 20" art print (giclee) on paper, museum quality, made with fade resistant inks. Any of my prints that are available as giclees on paper - your choice which one. I'll pay to ship it to you. They sell in my local gallery for $125.00! These giclees are really nice, it'll look awesomely swanky in your home tiki bar, and you'll be adding something to the pop-culture (I think) that will be enjoyed by Tiki Tribe all over the world... on da' net! It'll spread the swank word of "tiki" in a nifty way... for a song that I don't know enough folks have heard. What do ya' think? Any one up for this? Personal message me, and we can make cool counter-culture you-tubey internet "ART"! OK TIKI TRIBE -K? - this sort of leads me to my next project. It's a book of all my Tiki art. Tiki-Art, and. HOWEVER, mysteriously wrapped around the images of poly-pop-surrealism is also a tiki-noir story. Written by s.p. Gprogan. Some art, will be made special - just for this story. Mostly, the Art will be my body of work I have created over the last 8 years approx. It'll be my "body of Work", and S.P. Grogan's colorful writing, to first bring them all in, with a wonderful cast of characters. He is perfecting spreading his creative tentacles to wrap around each image and bring them into the story-fold. Exciting stuff. I don't think anyone has tried it before, so it' scary as hell, but I find that doing the project that scares you the most, pushes you to do great things. These things you are afraid of doing - ends up your best work.
