The Disko Bay Expedition
Posted by Van Helsing at November 18, 2009 8:28 AM
For an idea of what results when you mix state-sanctioned moonbattery with art, refer to last year's Disko Bay expedition, which entailed a gaggle of artsy-fartsy phonies venturing to the arctic to promote the floundering global warming hoax. The results were hilarious — unless you were forced to pay for them.
Among the participants was Beatboxer Shlomo, who "dedicates his beats to the cause":
Insights Beatboxer gleaned from the arctic adventure include:
I couldn't help but notice that it's really quite cold.
Being with all these inspired people seems to have filled my head with a zillion ideas for musical endeavours that could easily save the world.
Possibly the most bold and transgressive artwork to be created during the expedition was this piece of performance art by Francesca Galeazzi:
This morning I walked across the fresh snow with a gas cylinder in my arms, containing 6kg of CO2. I took it across the unspoiled snow field of the Jakobshavn Fjord until I found what, to my eyes, was a wonderful place. …
I put the cylinder down, got on my knees and opened the valve. The CO2 came out violently, freezing the air around the nozzle and producing an unpleasant whistle. When I lowered the cylinder towards the ground, the snow blow off all around me under the pressure of the air jet, almost to signify the melting of the Arctic ice shelf because of the Carbon emissions generated somewhere else.
Reading this you might think I am an evil horrible woman.
David Thompson responds:
You're not evil. That would at least be interesting. You're merely a talentless poseur and a freeloading narcissist. Not evil, just a bint.
Tragically, no one encountered a hungry polar bear.

One of the blessings of being a right-winger is you don't have to pretend to enjoy the pretentious bleating of self-proclaimed "artists."

Super Genius Al Gore says the temperature of the Earth's interior is "several million degrees."
Yeah, he's wa-a-a-a-a-a-y smarter than Sarah Palin. /sarc

Disko Bay? Sounds like a place where one can dance to the BeeGees and Donna Summer

Quit spitting on the microphone and buy some drums, you talentless loser.

What do these people do to make a living?
I am sure they don't have real jobs doing crap like this that could provide a living.
