Tone.....
Mandolin via Garageband mic sounds almost like coconuts. Garagedam is like another instrument in a way, what with all it does to your stuff.
It's the 21st century no doubt.
Like a 1958
DanElectro/Silvertone Sears and Roebuck Guitar w/aAmplifier-in-a-case. It's got that funky tone found in garages.
So, if you want to be in the garage,
it's ok in there.
It's the 21st century no doubt.

This guitar was photographed at the
Felix Kulpa Gallery in Santa Cruz.
Made by Robbie Shoen, it's one of
a series of playable guitars he's made.
Dada and Garage Band all in one.

Marcel Duchamp's Fountain
Dada is Art
Dada is ???????
meant to be here, on this blog.
However, this "Ready Made" is called by some,
"the most influential piece of art of the 20th century".
With this, and the bicycle wheel on a stool, Duchamp
excited and insulted and inspired and depressed
the established art world.
His work, especially this urinal, caused arguements and disent among
"The Independents", his own group.
Every move Duchamp made up-set the artistic
apple cart.
He opened the first doors to all kinds of artistic
wackiness that we love and hate to this day.

American Dippers.
The birds that swim in swift creeks looking for supper.
These two are dancing however.

Shadow Dog
Dada........Marcel Duchamp's Dada Art.
The ready-mades.

We leave it to the reader to find out about
this "Dada" art.
It's just that the spirit of Dada is floating
around in the world of Mandrand Band.
Click on the picture for the large version.
The perfect painting.
Light against dark.
Dark against light.
Archival materials
Fleeting images.
Marcel Duchamp spoke of "The Ready Mades".
Shadows are "Ready Mades".
Dada is not your father.
Marcel Duchamp plays chess.
He plays art like a chess player.
Carefully, according to the rules.
He has some suprise moves.
He surprised some with his painting, "Nude decending staircase".
I've heard a story told about him about a person
asking him about that painting.
Something like.....
She say's to Marcel...
"That looks nothing like a woman."
Marcel replies...
"It's not a woman Madam. It's a painting."
Dada is nothing.
Unless you can tell me something.
