Our Beautiful World
Here’s a poetic little video of two “Open” signs attempting to communicate with one another… or maybe this is actually NOT a convenience store but the 13th Alien Headquarters Sector and the aliens have taken over these open signs and are transmitting some sort of Close Encounters of the Third Kind “Morse code” to all of the aliens who live nearby.
Most of the time it’s just signaling local news from other planets, but every so often it instructs all of the neighborly aliens to come down to the convenience store to purchase and consume copious amounts of Twinkies. These times are very calculated and only occur after the third and fifth Hostess delivery each month so that earthlings do not suspect anything strange.
All the while the aliens are storing that beautiful soft white filling in special hiding places and will one day coat the earth with their stored sweet sugary filling. The only way to save earth and ourselves will be to eat our way out; and in doing so, we will become so bloated and fat that we’ll become useless and the Aliens will take over our planet – a white knight or friendly take over if you will.
So next time you see a couple of blinking open signs at a convenience store and a “person” buying more than one pack of Twinkies, stop and ask them what planet they are from and tell them to save Earth cause you love it.

So minimalist in such a gut-loosening, Whitman-cuddling, mind-bakingly banal sort of way. It is my favorite piece of art this week. ART!
Did you know that twinkies don’t go bad? You can have them in your cabinet for years and they never lose their sponge-like texture.
If you want a vision of the future, imagine a Twinkie being fed to a human face forever – D.E.
