no, really. so how do you feel about the dead being exhumed to sell products—a trend which started, i believe, with the fred astaire/paula abdul diet coke ads of 10 years ago?

and yes, natalie cole's duet with her dead dad counts as an attempt to sell something.

― maura, Wednesday, 14 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

They can't mind. So it's better than exploitation of the living.

I draw a line at making burgers out of dead people though. Dead cows is fine.

I can't wait till that Damien Hirsts guys birthday, what they gonna do then?

― Mr Noodles, Wednesday, 14 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

You mean Damien Hirst's death day? There's already a piece in his first book of him, his wife and his child all preserved in formaldehyde. I imagine he'll be marketed even MORE effectively after he's dead.

Eh. I could do the same with five minutes in Fractal Paint Pro.

That logo = looks like it was drawn by someone with Parkinson's Disease.

Monet makes a lot more sense now, doesn't it?

― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 14 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

art = sterling can do it

but will it play in peoria?

DG = philistine.

Fractal Paint roXoR = lets you paint like Van Gough, pointilists, impressionists, &c. in a flash & a dash!

― Sterling Clover, Wednesday, 14 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I love it when techonology supersedes artistic inspiration.

― Nick, Wednesday, 14 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Would have preferred Seurat.

― suzy, Wednesday, 14 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Have you seen what they've done to Colonel Sanders lately? - Witness the freakish transformation of austere old dude in a black and white photo, to a caricature that grins back at you with maniacal glee from the giant billboards found alongside most of North Amercica's major highways and byways.

― Kim, Wednesday, 14 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Well the Colonel has found a new lease of life after his invention of the KFC Twister and Chicken Gravy. Mmmmmm.

― Tom, Wednesday, 14 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

If you put a line break after the slash following the server address the link normally works fine.

― RickyT, Thursday, 15 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

norman, your link worked fine

― Ed, Thursday, 15 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Mmmmm. I need to get me some of this chicken gravy. So, will Sarah be calling past KFC on the way home to Buffy tonight? I THINK SO!!!!

― Sarah, Thursday, 15 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

norman, your link worked fine

It linked, but it was the wrong link, ed. Not that I understood the right link.

On a related subject, what happened to that software that 'wrote' music in whatever style you wanted (you fed it a sample of say, Beethoven symphonies and it learned to produce things in the same way. Or just simple tunes if that's what you wanted). I heard about it on the radio a few years ago.

― Nick, Thursday, 15 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

In that case, forget all that Copy & Pasting shiznit. Just highlight his address, then click on this link.

― Kodanshi, Thursday, 15 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

You and your crazy clicking.

― Nick, Thursday, 15 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)
