Touching Ancient Objects D'Arte

Is what I did during a school "field-trip" to the RISD art museum the other day.

I touched an ancient Chinese dragon, Vishnu (somewhat appropriately), various Taoist statuettes, and the giant wooden Buddha, among other things.

I think I have a fetish for very old objects.

I mean, they just left them out in the open. No ropes or glass cases. It's like they were asking me too. Is that bad?

If you think it is, what's coming next is going to be worse.

I'm going to go back there (only three bucks with my student ID! Woot!)...

And lick the ancient Chinese dragon.

I support your campaign of licking very old objects.

I'd like to go back to the pyramids again, and maybe cough on some frescoes.

Personally, I like to perform acts of frotteurism to Munch paintings and lewd sculptures.

i've heard it's quite the thing in Japan, however...

That's cool, and all, but the licking makes for a full-sensory experience. I suggest you integrate it into your non-consensual pelvis-on-art bump n' grinding.

Fuck.  Call me.  I need to be there for this.  I will only be "Help", I promise.

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

I used to go around pissing on things. Monuments of note include a small obelisk marking the geographical centre of Tennessee in Murfressboro. The most Southerly Point of the Continental USA marker in Key West, Florida. The Big Banana in Coffs Harbour, Australia, and various war memorials. Couldn't muster up the courage at all the statues of Simon Bolivar in South America, though, and there were too many mean looking police at the Big Jesus in Rio. I guess I just wasn't prepared to die for my art, at the time.

I planned on it. I need witnesses for this. Thing is, we have to look very serious about being there, otherwise we may rouse the guards' suspicions.

We may need to be shirt and tie country for this.  WE also need to have a good spiel about how we're either trying to "absorb art by homepathy", or "We thought it was some student's weird artsy chocolate thing!"

Richter, when the Great Game of Dodgeball of the Endtimes gets played, remind me to pick you first for my team.

I gave up ties and buttons when I gave up working with the public. But I can snazz myself up a touch. We need to get leln and Ang and go as a "family." I mean, collectively, we're fairly "knowledgeable" about "art." And you and your sister are perfect for a museum environment; so delightfully polite and unassuming, it would be fucking hilarious. It needs to be done. Pics if possible.

Hell. I think, this summer, instead of eating all different types of food while in swimming pools, I'm going to hit all the museums, and lick art.

It really would be easy to do, most of the stuff is nearly head-level. It'll be getting photographic evidence that will be difficult.
