We built a dome

And filled it in with tye-dyed triangles of goodness. That is all.

Construction! The Musical!

Danny, Dave, and I have been doing some construction work down in Sobeca town lately.  There’s some really cool projects underway, and we’re all happy to be involved with the Sobeca radness. Brother Evan snapped some photos as we built a huge wall at the Camp Dave, Danny, Ryan. Creep. Band photo. Ska band photo.

Suburban Hula Hoop Brigade

As promised, here are the suburban “hula hoop” videos.  I say “hula hoop” in quotes because it is a 60 inch metal ring used to support a glass patio table.  All these crazy antics took place on the roof balcony at Dave Hill’s place.  Samuel and I were on a beer run, so we missed [...]

From The Archives… Danny Simon

Here are some rad little paintings that I found on my external hard drive today.  These were taken from the I Am For Lease art show in July of 2006, featuring some sweet works by Danny Simon and a little collaboration expression session mural. See the video from that show HERE.

My New Bling

A couple months back my brother was driving the van and it blew out a tire on the 605 freeway. Bummer. So, I had to get a new tire.  But, the old tires weren’t even the correct size for this van, so I had to get all 4 tires.  But again, the wheel size is [...]

In a galaxy far far away…

In January of 2007 I was heading back to the States after a 3 week trip through Italy with my Art History department at school. Due to some weather delays we got stuck in Munich on our layover, and had to sit in the airport for hours upon hours. Eventually the airline gave us vouchers [...]

On Global Chilling

Global Chilling. What is it? What does it mean? Global Chilling is an idea that lies at the very heart of Bro Futurism. Global Chilling, or Global Chillin’ as it is commonly referred to, is a way of being. It is a way of being with the world and with the world’s people in a [...]

Saturday in the Park (2)

The We Love Long Beach event was spectacular this past Saturday. I have pretty radical tank top sunburn lines. We were all very pleased at the response to our community painting project. I often feel like art can take the form of elitism or exclusivity when presented in a gallery or a museum. Galleries and [...]

transportation (2)

We, at the Bro Futurists Institute of Pursuing Awesomeness (BFIPA – pronounced: bee – fippa), like to keep things on the move; on a roll, if you will. One of the interesting things about Southern California, specifically Orange and LA Counties, is that we have really crappy mass transit systems. Well, it’s not so much [...]

Bro Futurists

Bro Futurists is the title for an (art) team that I captain. We run around and do stuff. It’s pretty loose these days; everyone has so much going on, always. We make stuff when we can, and try and organize events here and there. I’ve been increasingly interested and drawn to ideas and events that [...]

what’s happening with the bro futurists?

here’s a better question: what’s a happening? here’s an answer: A happening is a performance, event or situation meant to be considered as art. Happenings take place anywhere, are often multi-disciplinary, often lack a narrative and frequently seek to involve the audience in some way. Key elements of happenings are planned, but artists sometimes retain [...]
