New Ideas on the Horizon

So, I have been enthusiastically talking to my good buddy Lucia. Miss Lucia is a theater buff and playwrite, and I was lucky enough to see one of her pieces (Mad Girl Sings the Blues) last winter. A few weeks ago, she mentioned to me in an off-hand way that she was working on a fundraiser project with another playwrite, a cabaret show at the spotlight theater. I, of course, was more than willing to offer the Bikini Artist's assistance, and as off last night, things are looking positive. Look forward to a new dimension to the Bikini Artist Saga. I am hoping that this event will allow me to explore some narrative sequences, as well as bring alot of auidence participation into the mix. I'm very excited to have this reoccuring appearance, as the bar scene has gotten a tad tiring.So, I expect to see you're faces at the show, and as always, incourage you're input!

Welcome!

Brief introduction;

The Bikini Artist Project began as a wise ass idea for a tv show. It has since become something much more complicated.

It is my intention that this "Diary" become an ongoing dialogue with myself (and the rest of you, if you like) about the project; what it means, what it is becoming, and how far it can go. I also wish to create a more in-depth picture of the character of the Bikini Artist. By taking on her personality as my alter-ego, I am hoping to more clearly establish her identity. Where does the line between her creator and her begin blur? And for that matter, can others help bring her existance to light more completely? "Diary" will help to organize the bikini artist narrative. I've been heming and hawing about what to do next (comic, new performance format...?) and this Diary will help to nuture that next crucial step into birth.

Yes. So. Welcome. And thank you.

Notes on format; Hello. This is me talking. Miss Emily Vaughn, tried and true, nothing weird about it. And this is the Bikini Artist! I love art! Art is soooooo sexy! Are you gonna read my pretty little journal Wow, that so exciting. I'm so glad you've come to visit me today! See the difference? Keep it in mind. Ja ne, peeps.
