Studio Show

Great showing over the weekend for Sk8-66!  Had tons of interest and everyone seamed to think it was a great idea.   Here's the schpeal.......

"The Trailer and Skateboard are two forms of American transportation that are heading in opposite directions culturally.  One going from Subculture to Mainstream and the other vise versa.  I'll be taking these on the Great American Highway.....Rt. 66, (which has/is going through it's own cultural transitions), and documenting my travels and findings.  Along the way I will be leaving sculptures of Teardrop Trailers with barcode's called "Stickybits" at the major rt. 66 attractions.  If you have an iPhone or Droid you can scan the barcode and info on Americana or the history of Rt. 66 will appear on your device.  The cool thing with Stickybits is that you can then post your own rt. 66 experience to that Sculpture.  I'm hopping to create a sort of "User Generated" kiosk of peoples travels on the Mother Road.  Each one of these sculptures will eventually have numerous stories attached as people leave their own info on them."

If this works, we plan on doing several similar adventures.

I'll be posting some designs of the sculptures here soon......
