The world's shortest, coldest, driest, highest, windiest Mardi Gras parade
Happy Mardi Gras, or Karneval, or Carnivale! I am ashamed to be doing nothing of note this carnival season, because today I read a description of one of the best expatriate Mardi Gras celebrations I've ever heard of, from someone spending a year at the South Pole. They managed to have gumbo, king cake, beads, and masks!
Last year, however, I threw a party on Epiphany, for which I made a lovely king cake. Of course, then I posed obscenely with it.
Find some way to get into trouble, y'all! You have until midnight on Tuesday.
monochrom is an art-technology-philosophy group having its seat in Vienna and Zeta Draconis. monochrom is an unpeculiar mixture of proto-aesthetic fringe work, pop attitude, subcultural science, context hacking and political activism.
