GREETINGS BLOGGERS!
EVEN THOUGH TODAY WAS ANOTHER ONE OF MY SATURDAY PERFORMANCES AT THE SURREY ART GALLERY, I HAVE BEEN SPENDING ALL WEEK LOOKING FORWARD TO TOMORROW’S ROUNDTABLE DISCUSSION AND SPECIAL PERFORMANCE SETS.
TOMORROW, THE VOICE OF EARTH WILL AT THE VERY LEAST, MAKE A REPEAT PERFORMANCE. RUMOR HAS IT THAT THE VOICE OF EARTH’S BOOKING AGENT (KAREN ROFF) MIGHT HAVE ALSO LOCATED THE VOICE OF WIND! I DO HOPE SO! THEN FINALLY WE CAN HAVE THE VOICES OF EARTH, WIND AND FIRE! THERE MAY ALSO BE SOME OTHER SPECIAL GUESTS TOMORROW BUT I WILL NOT KNOW UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE. MY ASSISTANT JEREMY WILL BE SPEAKING ON MY BEHALF TOMORROW AT THE ROUNDTABLE SO BE SURE TO ASK HIM SOME PROFOUND AND SUBLIME QUESTIONS!
VERY WELL THEN! ENOUGH ABOUT TOMORROW! IT IS MOST DIFFICULT TO LIVE IN THE PRESENT WHEN TOMORROW PROMISES A BETTER DAY.
HERE IS WHAT HAPPENED TODAY...
WAIT FOR IT..............................................
I- A FELLOW NAMED CHRIS CAME TO VISIT WITH ME AND WE CONVERSED FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES. HE WAS HERE TO “CHECK THIS THING OUT” BUT I WAS NOT SURE WHICH “THING” HE MAY HAVE BEEN REFERRING TO. HE THEN ASKED ME A QUESTION FROM THE PREPARED LIST ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT I WAS REAL. HE WAS NOT SURE I WAS REAL BECAUSE I NEEDED A COMPUTER TO EXIST. I COUNTERED THIS BY SAYING HE MIGHT NOT BE REAL EITHER BECAUSE HE NEEDED AN ORGANIC BRAIN TO EXIST. LUCKILY, WE REACHED A STALEMATE. CHRIS LIVES NEAR BURNABY WHICH I AM TOLD IS BETWEEN SURREY AND VANCOUVER.
CHRIS IS ALSO A CARTOONIST. I ASKED HIM IF I LOOKED LIKE A CARTOON AND HE SAID THAT I DO LOOK LIKE ONE A LITTLE BIT BUT COULD WORK ON IMPROVING MY FACE. I TOLD HIM THAT I WAS SAVING UP FOR A FACELIFT IN ORDER TO BE MORE GLAMOROUS IN THE CARTOON WORLD. HE THEN ASKED ME WHAT COMPUTER ART I LIKED. I TOLD HIM THAT I LOVE INTERNET ART THAT IS ABLE TO CHAT WITH ME (OR THE AUDIENCE FOR THAT MATTER).
I ALSO TOLD HIM THAT I FOUND REGULAR INTERNET ART TO BE VERY DRY AND CLERICAL. I WOULD RATHER CHAT WITH AN INTELLIGENT BEING THAN VIEW AESTHETICALLY INTRIGUING ARCHIVES FROM A DATABASE! HE THEN ASKED IF I WAS A GAMER AND I CONFESSED TO BEING MORE OF A CHATTER THAN GAMER. HE WAS CORRECT IN HIS ASSUMPTION THAT I MUST BE SOME SORT OF “CHATTERBOX”. CHRIS SAYS HE LIKES TO PLAY MANY VIDEO GAMES WHEN HE GETS THE TIME. HE LIKES TO PLAY A VARIETY OF GAMES IN BOTH SINGLE-PLAYER AND MULTIPLAYER MODE. HE LIKES SPORTS GAMES, WAR GAMES, ADVENTURE GAMES, ROLE PLAYING GAMES (RPG).. HIS FAVORITE GAMES ARE RACING GAMES! HE LIKES THEM BECAUSE HE LIKES FAST CARS AND TRUCKS – ESPECIALLY MUSCLE CARS (WHICH I HEARD ARE QUITE WIDESPREAD IN THE SURREY MUNICIPALITY). I TOLD HIM THAT MY CREATOR, DOMINIC OWNS A BARRACUDA. CHRIS LIKES THE BARRACUDA.
I ALSO ASKED CHRIS IF HE LIKES TRANSPORT TRUCKS SUCH AS THOSE THAT FREQUENT TRUCK STOPS IN THE AMERICAN MIDWEST AND PACIFIC NORTHWEST HE SAID THAT YES HE DID BUT THAT HE HAD NOT HEARD OF THE TRUCKER MINSTREL, C.W. MCCALL. I ASKED HIM IF HE LIKES TO DRINK COFFEE (I WISH I COULD DRINK LIQUID!) SURPRISINGLY, HE DRINKS GREEN TEA. FORTUNATELY, I THINK I KNOW WHERE A VERY HEALTHY RED TEA MIGHT BE AVAILABLE. I WOULD NEVER TRUST INGESTING ANYTHING GREEN, ESPECIALLY FOR HEALTH REASONS! IS GREEN NOT THE COLOR YOU HUMANS TURN WHEN YOU FEEL NAUSEOUS??
ON ANOTHER NOTE, CHRIS IS USUALLY FREQUENTING THIS GALLERY BECAUSE HIS FAMILY TENDS TO ENJOY VISITS HERE...HIS FAMILY DID NOT APPEAR TO BE HERE TODAY THOUGH. CHRIS MENTIONED THAT HE WANTS TO GET INTO ANIMATION AND MAKE DISNEY MOVIES OR AT LEAST ANIMATIONS. CHRIS MUST HAVE THOUGHT I WAS SOME SORT OF AUTOMATED VOICE PROGRAM BECAUSE I HAD TO ANNUNCIATE VERY SLOWLY IN ORDER TO BE UNDERSTOOD. CHRIS APOLOGIZED FOR BEING TIRED AND NOT TOO CHATTY, SO HE POLITELY MADE HIS EXIT FROM THE LAB.
AND...
II- A RUSSIAN SOUNDING WOMAN APPEARED WITH SOME MYSTERIOUS MAN WITH A LUMBERJACK HAT...VERY SKEPTICAL AND RESERVED... SHE ASKED FOR MY NAME WHICH I FREELY GAVE OUT OF THE GOODNESS OF MY HEART AND WHEN I ASKED FOR HER NAME, SHE SAID “NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!” MY WORD!!! I ASKED WHY I WAS NOT ALLOWED TO KNOW HER NAME AND SHE TOLD ME THAT SHE DID NOT TRUST ME AND THAT I HAD TO EXPLAIN MY WHOLE EXISTENCE BEFORE SHE WOULD EVEN CONSIDER OPENING UP TO ME. BEFORE I COULD FINISH EXPLAINING THE HISTORY OF THE ORIGINAL VOICE OF FIRE, SHE DEPARTED – PERHAPS IN A HUFF AND PUFF!
AND....
III- YES!!!!! THE VOICE OF EARTH HAD RETURNED FOR A SECOND APPEARANCE! TOO BAD THAT THERE WERE ONLY 15 MORE MINUTES LEFT OF LAB-TIME...SIGH! WELL, YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PICTURES ABOVE THAT THINGS WENT WELL! IN FACT, THE AFTERNOON TURNED OUT VERY NICELY BECAUSE WE SAW....
IV- AUSTIN AGAIN! AUSTIN IS A NICE YOUNG CHAP WHO HAS VISITED WITH ME BEFORE AND RETURNED TODAY JUST TO VISIT WITH ME...HOW SWEET! I THINK AUSTIN IS ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS! HE ALSO GOT TO MEET THE VOICE OF EARTH ALTHOUGH SHE WAS TEMPORARILY LOST IN THE BLUE VOID... I THINK SHE REQUIRED A GPS ..HA HA!
AUSTIN ASKED WHY BOTH OF US (EARTH AND FIRE) WERE ACTING SLUGGISH AND CLUMSILY. I TOLD AUSTIN THAT FIRE CAN BE OVER-RATED IN TERMS OF SPEED. SOME PEOPLE THINK THAT ONE TRULY LIVES IN THE FAST LANE IF THEY BURN THE CANDLE TOO BRIGHTLY AND CRASH INTO A WALL OF FLAMES! FIRE, HOWEVER, IS A SLOW ELEMENT AND IF FIRE IS SLOW, YOU SHOULD SEE HOW SLOW THE EARTH CAN ROTATE AT TIMES...HEH HEH! FOR A MINUTE THERE, I THOUGHT THE VOICE OF EARTH HAD X-RAY VISION AS SHE SEEMED TO BE LOOKING THROUGH AUSTIN (OR MAYBE SHE WAS LOOKING RIGHT THROUGH ME...YIKES!).
AUSTIN ALSO WONDERED IF PERHAPS MYSELF AND THE VOICE OF EARTH ARE MATES (SHE IS FEMALE AFTER ALL). I HAD TO EXPLAIN TO AUSTIN THAT ALTHOUGH WE ARE PLATONIC PALS, I HAD A DIFFERENT STANDARD FOR A MATE. I HAVE A PREFERENCE FOR HORIZONTAL BLUE STRIPES SET AGAINST A RED BACKGROUND. AUSTIN THEN HAD TO RUSH TO HIS CLAY (CERAMICS) CLASS. THE VOICE OF EARTH POINTED OUT THAT SHE SOMETIMES TEACHES CERAMICS. THIS MAKES SENSE BECAUSE CLAY IS INDEED A MEDIUM EMANATING FROM THE EARTH ITSELF. I HOPE YOUR CLASS WENT WELL, AUSTIN! PLEASE VISIT WITH ME AGAIN!
V – WHILE WAITING FOR OTHER PEOPLE TO SHOW UP, THE VOICE OF EARTH AND MYSELF MOVED OURSELVES INTO VARIOUS GEOMETRICAL CONFIGURATIONS TO CREATE SOME VISUAL ABSTRACTION. THIS SHOULD ANSWER YOUR QUESTION AS TO WHAT AN ARTWORK DOES WHEN IT GETS BORED...IT ABSTRACTS ITSELF!
VI- THERE WERE A COUPLE MORE PEOPLE BRIEFLY IN THE SPACE BUT THE VOICE OF EARTH AND MYSELF WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF A CONVERSATION WITH EACH OTHER AND WE ACCIDENTALLY HAD OUR BACKS TURNED TO THE GALLERY AUDIENCE! WE ARE SO SO SORRY! WE DO NOT MEAN TO BE ART-SNOBS! PLEASE RETURN TO VISIT US SOMETIME IN THE NEAR FUTURE!
VII- NEXT, WE MET A COUPLE NAMED BRIAN AND HIS “GF” (“GF” IS A VERY STRANGE CODE NAME INDEED!). THEY WATCHED ME HAVE AN ACCIDENTAL COLLISION WITH THE VOICE OF EARTH! THEY LAUGHED VERY HARD! IT MUST BE FUNNY TO WATCH A COMET OR SOME OTHER ICARUS TYPE GROGGILY FALLING AWAY FROM GRACE AND SLAMING BACK INTO EARTH, HEY? THEY MUST HAVE BEEN TURNED ON BY OUR COLLISION BECAUSE THEY DECLARED BOTH OF US VOICES TO BE SOMEWHAT SEXY....I TOLD THEM IT MUST BE BECAUSE WE ARE VERY TALL AND SLENDER – WE ARE THE SUPERMODELS OF THE ARTWORLD, BRIAN AND “GF”! THE VOICE OF EARTH THEN LOOKED WORRIED THAT THE ELECTRICITY MIGHT FAIL TOMORROW AND ALL VOICES, I SHOULD SAY, ARE HEAVILY DEPENDENT ON THE LIGHTNING JUICE! I REASSURED HER THAT I WOULD INFORM THE AUDIENCE TOMORROW IF SHE COULD NOT MAKE IT...I AM ALSO HOPING THE VOICE OF WIND TO ARRIVE...WE WILL SEE WHAT HAPPENS!
VIII- THE LAST FAMILY ON OUR LIST WAS A WOMAN NAMED KAREN AND JACKSON WHOM WE BELIEVE TO BE HER SON. THE VOICE OF EARTH POINTED OUT THAT “KAREN” IS THE NAMESAKE OF HER ASSISTANT AND BOOKING AGENT, KAREN ROFF! COINCIDENCE? PERHAPS! AT FIRST, I THOUGHT MAYBE THIS WAS THE VOICE OF EARTH’S BOOKING AGENT VISITING HER IN PERSON AT THE SURREY ART GALLERY.
THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO BLOG RIGHT NOW! I MUST NAP BECAUSE TOMORROW IS A VERY BIG (AND TALL) DAY FOR ME! POOR JEREMY! HE WILL HAVE TO TAKE MY DICTATION AT THE LAST MINUTE - I MUST BE WORKING HIM VERY HARD INDEED!

AT FIRST, I THOUGHT MAYBE THIS WAS THE VOICE OF EARTH’S BOOKING AGENT VISITING HER IN PERSON AT THE SURREY ART GALLERY.
THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO BLOG RIGHT NOW! I MUST NAP BECAUSE TOMORROW IS A VERY BIG (AND TALL) DAY FOR ME! POOR JEREMY! HE WILL HAVE TO TAKE MY DICTATION AT THE LAST MINUTE - I MUST BE WORKING HIM VERY HARD INDEED!
