I wonder if they smell, or if the aroma dies off by the time crystals form?

Blood, Sweat & Urine - wasn’t that a punk rock band once?

No more swizzle sticks for me.

Beautiful? Meh. It all just looks crusty to me.

what medium do you work in for your art ?

skeet, largely.

Seems like it would be a punk band that would do covers of Blood, Sweat, and Tears songs doesn’t it?

Hmm. Nope.

Interesting concept, really annoying video. The pieces remind me of that artist who dipped clothing and other items into Israel’s Dead Sea to build up a nice crystalline crust. (In fact there may have been more than one artist who did that.) These crystals look like they were grown under more controlled conditions.
