REFLECTING ON LIFE AFTER A TEDDY BEAR’S PICNIC IN 2013
Before I left for the USA in 2006, a song was sung to me in Christchurch City of the South of New Zealand. While living in the USA I watched the world economy kinda collapse. It was definitely restructured. Peoples homes in the USA were the reason given, that started it all. It was a full on experience titled the GFC. It was played out in every front page newspaper headlines during those years. LA Times, NY Times, WSJ were all papers you had to read. I read all three daily in those days. Perhaps the most news I’ll ever read again in my life on a daily basis. The headlines couldn’t be ignored. News was so dramatic during those years.
Back in New Zealand in 2011 on the return, I learned that one of my Maori tribes now owned a forest. I thought of the song again, when I learned that news. The song lyrics of the song is what some parents in New Zealand still sing to their children today. You might know it too. You know… it is:
If you go down in the woods today you're sure of a big surprise If you go down in the woods today you'd better go in disguise For every bear that ever there was will gather there for certain Because today's the day the Teddy Bears have their picnic Every Teddy Bear who's been good is sure of a treat today There's lots of marvellous things to eat and wonderful games to play Beneath the trees where nobody sees they'll hide and seek as long as they please That's the way the Teddy Bears have their picnic Picnic time for Teddy Bears The little Teddy Bears are having a lovely time today (more…)

X-RAY PIZZA TEES
Being the leader of an online entertainment movement is something quite different than playing the role of the crazy fun team player “kid” cowboy of it.

ARTPOP@50NEW – ERASE PRECONCEIVED PERCEPTIONS – ARTIST STEFANI GERMANOTTA SAYS

“I have written like 50 songs. I don’t know what will rise to top. That’s how I write.
–Stefani Germaotta talks of the creative process for new record ARTPOP that drops on iTunes and as an interactive app with extra videos and music as well as fashion updates, magazines and chats.
Erase. Rethink. Listen to Music. Trust. Are also buzz words Germanotta wants to install in fans to do again and bring to the merch table of ArtPop‘s message. Cute.
Three words: Cereal + Milk… okay?! :)
[PopArt practicality pick: Milk Packaging: Creative milk packaging concept designed by Julien De Repentigny and G Lefebvre. "It represents the content of the product in the simplest way."]. Keep it simple.

POP ART ARTISTRY, 23RD MOST VOTED STAR TOPIC 2012
In a year where gaffes, fumbles, gimmicks abounded on a global stage in very unpredictable times people turned to pop art as distraction.
The 23rd most voted topic of 2012 is pop art. Fancy that.
Let’s go with the godfather of Pop Art then … Although I was tempted to go with the Playboy Bunny-Star Wars work, in the snobby Hollywood Art Gallery where art is so expensive, a security guard is present to see the art at any given time. You really have a Brad Pitt moment, when you are looking at pop art in such a gallery like that with a security guard beside you. It’s funny surreal.
Here’s Rubini, a popular California pop art artist, with a take on Andy Warhol‘s Marilyn Monroe. Her visage in film, is the auteur (in part) of Angelina Jolie‘s star template and actors like her. Jolie added action and tough smarts to her star mix too to evolve what actors could do in the Hollywood hood that Monroe added to with fame from Hollywood.
Young artists creating pop art in Hollywood are so clever. They do new works that should be seen if you visit Cali. They are everywhere. Lotsa fun. They take the wealth of Hollywood icons and mix it up into new American art. Very clever. For Americans Hollywoood is their culture. Pop art defines much of USA’s reproduction of images, the nation who reproduces their images ten times more and faster than any other nation on earth. Pop art is derived from that particular aspect of American culture. Go see California.
