I want to be a cult

I hate performance artists. And their art. It's sort of a general rule of mine, sprouting from years of modern-art cynicism and a steady diet of Doonesbury. But despite my strong bias, I have to admit that every once and a while a group of performance artists grab my attention with something particularly awesome. 'Project Brav New World' is just such a work.

BNW is being performed by a group of experimental artists here at Stanford who wish to answer "a single, vital question: What happens when a Cult of Personality appears around a certain individual, overnight, without His knowing?" To answer this question, they have taken to (what else?) the prominent display of giant, Maoist visages of Vice Provost of Undergraduate Education John Bravman around campus. They've hung their work in MemAud, in front of MemChu, by the Clocktower, and FroSoCo, and are starting to fund this massive propaganda with Bravman tee shirt sales. I'm buying one.

Oh - here's a link to an article written by the group. Sorry I couldn't find a picture. I'll post one if I ever do.

Okay, now I'm less impressed

Your Inner European is Irish!

Sprited and boisterous! You drink everyone under the table.

Who's Your Inner European?

I'm impressed

Okay, so I know these things are becoming more and more cliched. Whatever.

You Are 20 Years Old

20 Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe. 13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world. 20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. 30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more! 40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

What Age Do You Act?
