the original banana art – from a guerrilla galleries comment board (see also: trAce forum)

that was a pleasant trip back to trAce.
guerrilla galleries – great name, great idea. i took part in something similar in Cardiff in the late 80s, but it was just a one off. we took over a disused hairdressing salon, showed videos and media installations.

Bananas are yellow and grow in bunches.
A banana has yellow skin.
Banana skins can be slippery.

for proper picnic, we’ll need a sharper knife

what would we need for an improper picnic?

Picnic Style Rules are rules that acknowledge the tradition, culture and heritage of a particular food item. Simply put “Picnic Style Rules” are rules of a contest that do not allow for the mutilation, desecration, improper destruction of a food item.
AICE believes that eating a particular food item the way it was intended, is not only playing proper tribute to the culture and heritage of the food but also makes for a more interesting and easiier to follow contest. Over the years, many competitive eating fans have gasped in horror as they suffered the indignity of watching Eaters separate, dunk, mush and mash and perform other unmentionable “Picnic profanities.”
Fans, Eaters, sponsors and other concerned citizens have reinforced the need and importance of “Picnic Style Rules” to increase the entertainment value of competitive eating and to eliminate the tricky business connected to the massacre of food.
It is the goal of AICE to encourage the development picnic style rules in all eating contests.

so!
i’m delighted to learn i’ve been picnicking improperly my entire life! indulging in so many profanities – dunking biscuits in tea – tea which is mashed (don’t pour yet! let the tea mash) – potatoes mashed, peas mushed (a Yorkshire delicacy, mushy peas with fish and chips) and other mealtime mutilations – for example, i find that strawberries, raspberries, cherries simply beg to be desecrated.
what’s more, i eat so slowly, so leisurely, so uncompetitively (really, no one eats slower than me). a feast is no fast. i’ll roast in gastronomic hell(heaven) with lashings of relish.
food warriors, i come in peace. there’s an art to nibbling – gobbling’s for turkeys.

i eat SuperBanana for breakfast

L.B.: It’s a banana.
Blanka: BLANKA KNEW THAT.
Carnage: Yup. Obviously a banana.
Rafiki: Asante-se, dodonka-hey, karinki-sana, of course — BANANA!
L.B.: But that’s not all… apparently it’s a frozen banana!
Rafiki: Katurka-hosen, banana is FROZEN!
Blanka: BLANKA MET FROZEN MAN ONCE. THAWED HIM, THEN TOOK HIM SWIMMING. CUZ HE STANK.
Carnage: Um, right. Hey, LB, think we should microwave it?
L.B.: Sure!

Who knew?
“It is well known that the size of the superbananas in stellarators scales with the minor radius. Thus, in some stellarator configurations superbananas may not be confined. To improve stellarator confinement, a theory is developed to include the effects of the magnetic well and the radial gradient of the radial electric field to squeeze superbananas. It is found that the size of the superbananas is reduced by a factor of S1/2, where S is the superbanana squeezing factor that depends on the magnetic well depth and the radial gradient of the radial electric field. The corresponding fraction of the superbanana is increased by a factor of S1/2. The diffusive loss is thus reduced by a factor of S-3/2.”
Careful what you eat for breakfast, it could apparantly put you into an odd orbit.

i’m perpetually in an odd orbit. i think it’s the nature of my stellarator confinement. what i need is a magnetic well – might improve my squeeze factor.
