Links: I Think We Need to Address the Dachshund in the Room

Not That Mike The Other Mike
A hyper realistic sculpture of a giant dachshund sleeping in a futuristic gallery space. Strange robot like structures are displayed in the background.

And the address is: Dachshund, c/o Room.

    Goldie Gathering reminded me of this video that I saw the other day. I’ve seen this guy before but those videos didn’t have his dog! (Make sure you watch all the way to the end for more doggie.)

      I like Castellucci’s voice (though I prefer his work with the a cappella group Voice Play), and of course I like the dog, but boy is this a tepid arrangement. Roger Miller’s original is so much better, IMO.

      I’ve been a fan of Voice Play for years I also love Geoff’s solo work. He also does reading of Edgar Allen Poe’s stories and other authors on his YouTube channel although I admit that for me when it comes to reading Edgar Allen Poe stories nobody beats Vincent Price.

    I’d rather scrub a turtle than a floor . . . I surely would.

      Me too. but what a weird set up.

      they have a deep pool for swimming and a shallow shelf that’s underwater? would assume that they’d have an area not covered in water. Or maybe that’s just for examinations. And scratches.

      I’d rather be a sparrow than a snail …

    Do Turtles even FEEL anything if you scratch their shells??? That would be like scratching your fingernail.

      Indeed they do! And they often enjoy being brushed. You can find videos online of lil box turtles and the like wiggling under a toothbrush, supplying their own motion in the face of inadequately vigorous scrubbing.

        And now we know! Thank you!
