If the answer to that is no, i am making them suits at a very resonable price. If anyone wants to PM me i'll let them know the prices and stuff. I accept PayPal and personal cheque. Really sorry but i can't really ship outside of the UK at the moment due to the delicate nature of the goods.

I like llamas. I approve of the second picture.

Approve all you like mate. Won't make a jot of difference unless you fill your canvas, get yourself an emotion suit, and get the hell out of here before it all kicks off i'm telling yer...

I see you've picked up on the tried and true (if not a bit over used) advertising gimmick of yelling at your customers. i prefer the soft sell, personally. we'll send you a press kit.

LVX23, what exactly are your selling? A brassiere for the head? Facial stickers? The Singularity? Blank Canvases? An idea? Get in line!

He's selling the Ultraculture isn't he? Or maybe he's just pointing it out to us or something.

Ultraculture (TM), as any biochemist will tell you, is a serum-free medium widely used for the cultivation of mammalian cells - it's widely used in cancer research, for example. I must say it's rather perplexing to see occultists actively promoting these kinds of products, especially in view of Dr. Robert Potter's use of the term "Ultraculture" to describe Capitalism's rabid marketing and promotion of non- essential commodities to blind people of the reality that the system only serves to benefit those in control of capital. Is this just another 'clever' marketing ploy from Disinfo to shift more units? Or something else? Either way, I hope some clear statement comes soon, before this buzzword is inextricably linked, in my mind at least, to pictures of Llamas.

I think LVX23 might have started this thread in response to people's questions regarding ultraculture over in Mordant's thread here (about half-way down the page).

Is that right LVX23?

If it is, does anyone actually have a good definition of ultraculture instead of the few links in the other thread (which point to pages where people discuss ultraculture but don't explain what it is, or worse, bitch about someone getting to a website first, a la "Some jackanape blogger owns ultraculture.com, I may buy it off him at some point. " from here.)

I need a Wikipedia definition type answer. Such is my methodical and structured mind...

Oh dear! This rather smacks of the Microsft v Mike Rowe case, or Apple's recent dust-up with the UK dot.com kid who just happened to have registered itunes.com. Surely this exciting new cultural movement isn't going to kick off with a row over domain names? That's taking irony too far.

A buddhist who doesn't care for material possessions but still ends up with loads of gadgets, and who thinks a song by ScreamattheemptyheavensuntilyourspotsburstNineInchNails is better than sex. And his name is Spencer Steel: hopefully his given name given how shocking it'd be if it were his chosen name...

Points go to trouser for spotting the trademarked bioserum. Who knew Cambrex would branch out into mass hive manipulation and (ultra)cultural metaprogramming?

Ah, I see: he's selling llamas. It all becomes clear, now.

Seriously, LVX, what's up? To my untrained eye you appear lately to have gone not-quite-right... or is that not-quite-right like a fox? Get back to us on that, would you?

Still have your sense of humor, though.

Lep, I've just been having a bit of fun with the Ultraculture meme. I've been working with Jason to bring it to more definition and realization. I.E. yes, there is something real here. It's not just a Discordian prank. I'll post more...

I approve of the sale of llamas. Llama sales may now tote the sticker that reads "Bard Approved!" with pride.

Llamaculture...damn...I'm going to be laughing at that one all day.

For some reason my main llama memories involve the green Beastboy-llama from the Teen Titans episode "Nevermore", with the voice of David Spade (from "The Emperor's New Groove"). Possibly some kind of trickster soylent-llama. Or possibly some kind of Andean superhero. "The Green Llama!" riding around on his flying sun disc.

I swear, lads, its the stress. Its getting to me.

What about Alpacaculture, and their fiendish plot to immanentize the Alpacalypse?

Bard: One-Man Humaton Hoedown

Alpacalypse, Llamageddon, all good things, if you like sweaters. Or possibly bad things, if you don't like sweaters.

It burns my brain like the term polyvangelical and all it insinuates. I think I'm gonna have a high wierdness shortcircuit.

You know, like polyvangelical megachurches, polyvangelical ministers, etc.

Let's hope Cambrex don't prove to be as fiercely litigacious over their trademarks as, say Microsoft, Apple, etc.

I.E. yes, there is something real here.

I figured there was (I've been reading the Ultraculture stuff at Key23), but the mute opacity of the previous UC posts here was a little, well... opaque, if you know what I mean. Thanks for starting the other thread.
