David Meets Artist Tim Biskup/Red Robot

BBtv co-editor David Pescovitz takes a trip into the alternate reality of pop surrealist artist href="http://www.timbiskup.com">Tim Biskup. And it’s definitely a trip. Then, sculptor Chris Yates demonstrates how he makes a Diesel Sweeties wooden Red Robot from start to finish, slightly faster than normal.

   Wow…so Biskup is pretty lame, eh? I mean, his art is good, but he’s pretty loser-y as a person.

   “Loser-y”? Ummm…. no.

   So, JoFlow, are you a loser? Can’t fault me for asking — fair’s fair, after all.

   I just recently realized that Chris Yates is the reason I found Boing Boing. I found Yates through either Questionable Content or Scarygoround, both of which I found through Diesel Sweeties.

   So it comes full circle.
