Out on the Interweb.

so
the bikini artist project has a myspace acount.
i feel this is fine; i like to utilize as many tools as possible to address my audience. i feel that the internet, especially, is an important artistic meduim.

i have always been acutely aware of the sexual connotations of the bikini artist project. and, on networking tools like myspace, i am occasionally privy to individuals who want to flirt wiht her. this is fine, and usually i explain to them that i'm not in a bikini to attract attention, but as an art experiment. most people think this is cool, and are excited that their little "attraction" is now part of the grander sceme of my bikini art movement.

this dude, however, wasn't having it. i am most interested in his bizzare threats at the begining of the letter, and the fact that he continues to pursure the idea that (as i interpret it) will "do" him.

(this is just copied outta my account. start at the bottom.)

Subject: RE: RE: Simple, yet direct..
Body: As much as the project looks.."appealing" I was gunning more for interesting people in this area. If I got to know you and resisted my urges to slap you up, spit in your face, call you names the dicitonary won't print and flip you like a pancake I would be interested in the project as well.

Since we're both doing our best to come off like advertisments, I'm going to sell myself to you..and perhaps we can make bikini art together, I have a new digicam and I'm just itching to try it out. *smirks*

As for me? I'm Andrew. 24 year old Italian New Yorker, currently in Silver Spring, M.D. Graphic Designer in D.C. Horror movie aficianado. Total cheeseball. Outlandish, outgoing, outspoken, outstanding. Witty, intellectual, brazen, hilairious, personable, confident and hella sarcastic.

Oh no, don't get me wrong. Do I want you over in big diamond fishnet thigh highs, stripperesqe 6 inch platform heels, low cut booty shorts and be able to slather warm baby oil all over your legs? Well yes, of course. I am still a male.(And a hell of a leg man at that.)

But first and foremost I need someone with actual substance. Someone who enjoys witty banter and conversation. Who thrives on humor. Who is....themself.

Are you her?

If I scared you off, well, shit happens.

But if you're intrigued. Then by all means...
I have such sites to show you.

this is a profile for an art project of mine, not an actual profile for an existing "person", per say.

i incourage you to be the Bikini Artist Project's friend, and also to check out the project web site at www.bikiniartist.com.

you're letter interests me as an artist, however, because the sexual appeal of the bikini artist is obviously something i am attempting to develop.

if you are interested in the project, i have a show this saturday, march 19th at the spotlighter's theater, at 817 St. Paul st, in downtown baltimore. i will be appearing at the "hole in the wall cabaret" which starts at midnight. drinks are free with admission! $5 if you mention the bikini artist project.

thanks for looking!

What can be said that hasn't been said before? You didn't expect some hammy shit about how pretty your eyes are and whatnot did you?

No, I just find you to physically be my type, and I enjoyed your profile. I have no grasp of who you really are.

This email? A doorway.

Whether or not you care to enter is up to you. I implore you to give mine profile a run down, and we take it from there.
