Based on a Chinese Poem from the Year One

I received another Twenty % Tippers short story and CD by mail. "Based on a Chinese Poem from the Year One" is a tale of NYC real estate, site- specific art, the Chinese nuclear submarine fleet and, of course, the Twenty%Tippers.

The stories are the best part of the Twenty % Tippers creative output.

Save The World; Stop the Breeding

Reducing the population by voluntary means won't solve the world's environmental issues. Underdeveloped countries, like Mexico and India, have the highest birthrates. Developed countries, like Europe and the U.S. have low birthrates. In fact, the population of the U.S would be declining if it weren't for immigration. It would seem then that the way to reduce the world's population would be for all nations to develop their economies to be more like those of the U.S. and Europe. The problem there is that economies like ours use more natural resources per person.

We need to save the earth by figuring out how to make more - energy, food, water, plasma televisions - with fewer natural resources.

Found in the West Village. Big surprise.

Are you an indecisive SHMUCK that can't think for yourself?

Do I really want advice from someone with such poor spelling, grammar and typography skills?

Found on 6th Avenue, between 14th and 23rd Streets.

Leviticus - Part 22: Leviticus Explained

In his own words:

"Leviticus is a world famous artist producing superior quality oil paintings, public street art, philosophy books, builds "experiential" art venues, creates "experiential" orchestras and performs in "freestyle" concerts.

Leviticus produces hundreds of public street art pieces in New York City intended for public consumption and critique. This work is funded by the sale of his oil paintings.

Leviticus is changing the modern paradigms of music making by expanding the formal band structure, making it a more freeform experience, an all inclusive multi medium orchestra, utilizing all forms of human expression to harness explosive group creativity, while eliminating the audience dynamic completely.

Leviticus creates his own venues to produce his orchestras. The venue changes as the orchestra evolves and creates itself. The orchestra turns the venue into a living sculpture. The venue is than made available to the public to be used by promoters, event planners, and various groups that need superior space to house their agendas.

In 2004 Leviticus opened the Glass House Gallery in New York City. Leviticus closed it down in 2006 after recording 40 Glasshouse Orchestra albums. These recorded videos can be seen on Glasshouse Orchestra YOU TUBE."

I found this on Broadway, hanging from a traffic light post.
