as threatened, “taboo 12″ is now rolling off the baby art press and will be impossible for anyone to get hold of - i’m only giving copies as presents - just for information it’s an A5 100 page no-thrills boring text booklet printed on relatively cheap paper - 63399 words, ie the equivalent of a 250 page novel - tho no one would want to read it from beginning to end - contents mostly culled from the internet: succinctly edited forum discussions from giant robot, neo geo, stumbleupon, specialknives, dogs on acid, metafilter, booju mooju and numerous others; assorted news reports, essays, comments, letters and hate-mail; an abandoned baby art survey and the unedited / unpublished interviews from bizarre (x2), nude magazine, sm sniper and gothic and lolita bible; and tb vs paypal, godaddy, livejournal, myspace et al
blame paypal fascism for me not being able to sell this (or making/selling prints which so many people ask about) - approximately only one out of five people who enquire about buying the “rubber doll” book actually ever send money - running a baby art shop is wretched
May I please have a signed copy, TB. As you well know, I am probably the only one who will actually read it from cover to cover…
XD
oh, how i would love to have this ♥
are you kidding?! I would read this from beginning to end.
love!!
I would also love to have a signed copy of this!
kimmie - let’s arm wrestle for a copy… >.<
XD
here is one of my favourite “forum” discussions re baby art (art or porn) from booju mooju, a livejournal community re parenting - the two pix at the beginning were penis pixie and japabon 06 (er, that one’s no longer on my site either, sorry - a youngish looking girl tied up with her legs wide open, ho hum)
Japabon 06! (I’m looking at it now.) Sweet!!!
is this volume 1 of a series of 10? I can picture this being about a million pages.
Now, that would be a nice book to keep in the toilet,only then i could read all of it…piece by piece…every now and then!
to tell you the truth i like the fact that some people get so annoyed by your art…it means it strikes a chord inside and shakes them,thats pretty cool…but i assume that such a thing strikes the wallet too…but i couldnt know for sure.
i like your work very damn much.
Mr. A.

Ah, it appears that God keeps a watchful eye on his web logs… so you better behave!
oops, in fact the page IS still directly linked - i move stuff around and loose track!
…
and for taboo 12, i’m hoping one of these paypal alternatives will acknowledge the existence of life outside amerika this year?
(ahh I haven’t checked on your blog in such a long time, all the entries I’ve missed…)
I’d die for a chance some day to read this, maybe one day in the far future I’ll move into a house in which the previous owner was a friend of yours and mysteriously died (not that I wish death upon your friends!) and I will find it on the coffee table, yepyep.
Errrr I want!!
(please)
what is TB without his detractors ?
I need one also , eh !
I love all the old rant blogs from the old forum! I’d love a copy…
I also posted some pics of the placement of your pieces in my apartment:
