Artist to smoke Cobain's ashes An artist claims to have made a spliff containing the remains of raspy blond grunge genius pin-up martyr Kurt Cobain. The Graunida coughs that Aussie-born Natascha Stellmach, currently exhibiting at Berlin's Galerie Wagner + Partner, plans to sneak the fat one into a secret location in the city and have a good old toke as the …
Sarah, good to see you are starting to write like a proper reg hack :o)
Two points though: the correct form of address for my favorite crossword publisher is the Grauniad (not Graunida).
Also, it's "colombian marching powder", although I quite like "coloumbian naughty powder".
Otherwise excellent :o)
Is this artist aware that cremated human remains are highly toxic ? I hope the massive amount of lung damage kills him so some other attention grabbing artist can smoke the remains and keep this thing going.
Maybe we'll be free of talentless attention grabbing artists within a few years.
" from all the nasty media brouhaha he sought to escape" .... which in death one hopes would finally stop, but no, some 'artist' seeks to completely ignore any of what Kurt Cobain suggested or stood for, in a self-promotional stunt.
Also how is smoking a spliff art? Or the finale to an exhibition. Maybe this muppet should submit something for the turner prize.
Art is right up there with fashion for being mostly sycophantic nonsense.
"not-untalented"
Are you saying you actually like her... a skinny drug-guzzling alchy musician (who isn't named winehouse)?!
I quite like Courtney's music really - although she was alot better in Hole than her solo stuff (mono was good tho) - my fave song from Hole, Malibu off Celeb Skin.... best song on the album in my opinion... but my opinion is of little worth to anybody but myself... so I shall leave you in peace now.
I really don't understand what that guy is trying to accomplish/prove most of the time but his website is pretty funny. (http://www.jimisboss.com) if you can deal with the ALL CPAS and SATUPID SPLELING.
(Jim actually makes more sense that aManFromMars because he's a real person (I think). AMFM is mostly an experiment in AI (but there is a real person behind it all who occasionally says something significant))
Being old geezers, my buddy lui and myself have been discussing what to do with all the leftover biomass when out brains check out.
Our decision, buy a tree farm, and plant a tree on top of our un-enbalmed bodies.
If this process is begun swiftly enough, the life force, carried on by our Sagans (1 Sagan=billions and billions) of internal bacteria, will continue into the tree.
On the other hand... if Paris wants to snort a line of disco legend......
There are people who pretend to be disabled (complete with crutches, etc) and hold up signs in order to get money on the side of the road at off ramps in major cities.
...but they make more money trolling than Jim does and they don't even have to try to forcefully spell bad on their attention-getters.
Smoking: The act of inhaling the gaseous products of combustion.
Ash:substance which remains after combustion.
Is anyone else seeing a problem here?
Tried lighting up the contents of your ashtray recently? Tried emptying the ash pan from your open fire back into the grate and re-lighting it?
(never mind that the ash in this case was produced at several thousand degrees, and will be "smoked" at a coupe of hundred.
When I take oever, it's up against the wall for anyone with a lower IQ than a poodle.
Paris: because according to this page from Wikipedia dated 2053, that's fallen into a web 6.0 timewarp......
