email proposal:


For transmediale.02's theme "go public" NN proposed:

00. Frau Broeckmann goes public (wearing B V L G A R I) [porculus smiles -
"LAST
ORDERS"]

02. That NN + 01 not so random 2x life 01 not so nameless o+ and that
Transmediale
pays for her opulent lifestyle

04. That the simply.playful transmediale.soldiers launch `go.publik [TM]` - a
software
program which uploads
all files present on 01 .de komputer to a very public internet site.

07. last entered project was - love theory [TM]

For transmediale.03's theme - "play global" NN's proposal:

The very recent and as per usual, very well lubricated peasants' movements in
Eastern Europe
have lifed unprecedented love and blue fountains of liberty, democracy and a
FREE and mysteriously prosperous economy.

The simply.binary networks of Eastern Communism have zealously been replaced
with the
sophisticated and complex networks of OST>EUROPA Mafia. As successors to the
simply.efficient
KOMUNIST>STATE, the OST>EUROPA Mafia is determined to lace our echoing sky with
sweet lozenges of
multi-lateral accords and a stable pattern of ever glowing commerce with our
majesties in the West.

The impetus was such that the latest mathematical research in genetic, neural
and immune
networks has been utilized to determine the quintessential OST>EUROPA EXPORT....

.... The resultat perplexed even the fog; only the KOMUNISTS stood vivid + e.red
and
applauded with such sincere fits of emotion, that the habit of the fish
population in the Danube
of sleeping in the open air was disturbed for 4 days and 7 nights.

What was the resultat you may ask +?

PEOPLE

boys and girls
women and men

with lively mouths
and seamless souls

with deep longings
which twirl in dreams

strong and spacious
extending tender hands that pour
into gardens of dark green


The swine smiled. and the dreams were sown with soiled wrists.

Clearance SALE on Berlin streets

Why, OST>EUROPA life forms are so affordable, they are practically FREE

The brief puffs of smoke fell furiously and in disorder.
Planting seeds in every microbe could take some time.

.....

But ... the colourless stains filtered in as a flock, elect narcotics for the
swines'
modernized pleasures. There were sensational sacrifices to be certain, but the
odour was perfect,
and it will carry the curse for time to come.

.....
Planting white capsules in every w.body would be really heavy arbeid [in more
ways than one]

Proposed project: Badland Community Theatre

http://www.badland.paultulipana.net

Badland Community Theatre, while not strictly my project, and while currently
actualized, has essentially been a continual string of rejections from day one.
Badland is the brain-child of the Badland Community Theatre Group, a talented
and interesting group of filmmakers, has been experiencing rejection almost
unilaterally since its inception.

To save everyone the boring details, I'll just tell you about our most recent
rejection.

The Badland group, desperate for rent money (these guys have nothing), spent
weeks writing a proposal for a prestigious performing arts grant. They put
together a huge package expressing their desire to do a live rendering of
Hieronymus Bosch's "The Garden of Earthly Delights", starring the Badland
crew and a slew of volunteer extras (including several celebrities, including
television's Andy Dick and Mira Sorvino as the girl in front with the cherries
on her head).

After four weeks of waiting, this is the response they recieved (edited for
brevity):


Dear Sirs:
There was a form letter for this, but we at the [censored] Group
[censored] Grant Commission thought that it was only appropriate to do this
'in person', so to speak.

First off, we are sorry to say that you did not recieve the grant money. We had
many excellent applications, and the descision was very difficult.

Secondly, we at the [censored] Group [censored] Grant Commission felt that it
was our duty to _urge_ you to seek professional help. Your theatre group's web
site, and your press package have led us to believe that your organization may,
God-willing, be infected with some terrible disease. If this is not the case,
then it is certain that you are all completely insane, and we would appreciate
it if you would never contact us again.

Thank you for your interest in the [censored] Group [censored] Grant.

Yours Truly,

[censored]
[censored] Group, Creative Director
