loverboy on 2002-01-23 00:32 [#00073832]



if you cant control fame, why do so many people insist on
attempting to achieve it? its like a mad top for fuckers
sake, i cant control it.. you cant control it.. nobody can
control.. not even god him/herself!! it!! god is a thing..
not a person.. he doesnt exist but IT does!!

m on 2002-01-23 06:58 [#00073978]



there's no purpose to art, it wastes time more quickly so
death will hurry up and arrive already.


 

Baron Von Picklefoot from From my "special" place on 2002-01-23 07:51 [#00073979]



Jean-Michel Basquiat!!!!!! THE BARON HAS SPOKEN!!!!!!!!!


 

Mr. E. Dawg on 2002-01-23 08:13 [#00073980]



I am glad to see someone mentioned Dr. Patterson, altho
(IMO) I wouldn't necessarily call mr. Laswell a genius or
anything like that. He just saw a trend forming and followed
thru w/ it. Same with trent reznor (the fucking winey artfag
wannabe).

B3n:
I tend not to look at the person's private life when I
comment on their artistry. If that were the case, most of
the people on these lists are fucked up as well.

How many times must this site list people, bands, likes,
dislikes, the very same topics resurface over and over
again.

balthus from europe on 2002-01-24 17:27 [#00074488]



zetre - yes, great additions. i was not that overwhelmed
with gehry's work until i saw some views of a new gehry
building in berlin. really impressive, he just needs to work
on a big scale. damian hirst is weird, i like his color
dots, but also some of his more extreme things.

I agree with most the one's here (except for Notorious
B.I.G. ?!...) but I can't believe no-one's mentioned Chris
Morris - possibly the greatest comic genius ever!
