Reality Update,
Early April - 1999.

 

WWWebgreetings Dear Linear Scholar,

I thought y'all might like to read a globalised version of   "A letter to the Editor" that I have been emailing @round the last couple of weeks, if you can think of a place to post this on the wwweb or want to send a copy of it to your local newspaper.... Go Hard ;o)--~

Friends, nomads and citizens of the wwworld, a moment of your time, I would like to set the record, well, if not straight, then at least, definitively bent, about the past, present and future of the Big Bong Peace Pipe Project ;O)-~

You may, or may not, have heard about the mildly successful underground novel "the Big Bong Theory" - the book about the movie about the construction of a 240 Foot - 85 meter HIGH Peace Pipe- if you haven’t, it’s because the decision was taken in 1995 to abandon the main stream publishing and movie industries in order to concentrate on the world wide web.

The mainstream logic upon which this concept is based; First you write a book, and then you make a movie and one of the things you gotta do when you make a movie is build the set, is, whilst being true, also, well, kinda 20th century. Nowww a days, in the futuristic present, it goes First you have an idea, then you build a web site. That’s build a web site. Full Stop, why the full stop? Well, the Internet can display text, sound and moving pictures.

So, instead of making a mildly successful movie in reality about a Big Bong in the1900’s, the last 4 years have been spent designing and constructing a Cyber Theatre specifically for the 2000’s, or more precisely, on inventing a framework to showcase a new kind of entertainment- a Cyber Movie- in which the conventional separation between actors and audience is abolished, in which conventional scenic geography, the notions of proscenium, stage, auditorium, are completely discarded and in which continuity of performance, either in time or place, is ignored, leaving the PPParticipants free to invent their own drama.

Sound interesting so far? Hope so. Zzzzzzzt Fast forward to early 1999 Zzzzzzzt. Despite a total mainstream media black out, the BBt-PPP has built up a global audience based upon wwword of mouth recommendation and the coolness of the concept, every day more dudes find their way to the BBt-PPP and join the thousands of cyber citizens awaiting the start of the cyber movie.

All research and input to date confirms that the Big Bong Peace Pipe will become one of the most popular tourist attractions for the under 50’s in the world, where ever and when ever it is built, this means that unlike Sydney’s 5 Ringed Circus, the BBt-PPP will be packing them in for years to come.

The search for the final location is an on going component of the BBt-PPP, Northern New South Wales, and the Rainbow Region in particular, has been the main focus of the search these last 6 months, with several locations placed on the ‘possible list,’ as the search for 200 or so acres of Internet connectable land upon which to commit a blatant act of wwworld peace continues.

In conclusion, I hope the preceding information has cleared up any misconceptions about the BBt-PPP Virtual Reality that you may, or may not have held, and/or, hopefully, has tweaked your enthusiasm gland sufficiently for you to visit the Peace Pipe Project next time you go online…..

see you else web
in cyber space,
Peace G.

Anyway, the main thing is that, from an overall - BIG Picture- point of view, things is poised and running according to plan and speaking of plans and up coming events. The Mardi Grass is about a month away (start of May) and since it is the largest gathering of it's kind in the southern hemisphere, that makes it the #1 cannabist event of the year down here, and well, what else can I say but....If you can't be there, see it in the square.

Any of y'all who are 'thinking about maybe turning up' to the Mardi-Grass are more than welcome to crash out here at "Head Quarters,"  just send me an e-mail and let me know.

                Till next,
                                      Peace
