Peralta Hacienda Gate Design

This is a gate I designed for the City of Oakland. It’s for the Peralta Hacienda Historic park in the the fruitvale neighborhood of Oakland. I used the historic brand from the Peralta Family ranch.

Edwardian Ball Jan 23rd 2010

The Giant Iron Snail Car the Golden Mean will be at the Edwardian  Ball Jan 23rd

We had a great time curbside at this event last year. We got to hear some great live music, sip smokey drinks, and harass Steam-punk guest for using electric powered cell phones, all from the comfort of the Snail. Come by, say hi, and show me your steam powered cell phone!

The award-winning Edwardian Ball transforms the historic Regency Ballroom into a garden of delights, Friday and Saturday January 22nd and 23rd, 2010. Join a magical outdoors-indoor symphony of music, theatre, dance, art, storytelling, circus arts, fashion, technology, and, of course, the art & stories of Edward Gorey. The festivities feature a dizzying assortment of artists and performers, where high-flying trapezes and steam-powered machines paint an elegant backdrop for costumed ballgoers reveling through the night. Here, the old world meets the world-to-be with an unforgettable tip of the top hat, cinch of the corset, and a splash of absinthe poured over a silver spoon.


Vortex Gun SRL

History Channel did a small story on the Vortex gun Mark Paline and I did for SRL in the 1990’s

They kept asking us about how this German guy Zepperman had influenced us, we kept telling them we did it for art. I’m surprised they got this much footage without us saying “art” in a sentience.  I’ll have to work on that in the future, maybe an I Phone app. Is that the Alpha Fox in the back ground?

Another great one of Mark right after he blew his hand off. So young!

It’s 2010 LAUGH!

Happy New Years form the Boiler Bar to all of you who have supported art one drink at a time.

Thanks to all who came and made it a wonderful new years for me and Kyrsten.

I was glad to have some time to talk to friends and see Dismal’s great fireworks show. There were great bands around every corner and 5 fire trucks!

Keep in touch by joining our fan club for the Golden Mean. Our next shop party is in Mid February, where we will be unveiling our new proposed project for Burning Man.
