Tattoo of Nothing (1991)

Dec 29th 1991, New York: tattooist Matthew Jankowski used needles empty of any ink to tattoo the mathematical equation “0 + 0 = 0” on GX Jupitter-Larsen's left arm. This was the second time GX did this! The first “Tattoo of Nothing” was performed in Amsterdam in 1982.

The thin lines of blood left behind by the empty needles would slowly fade over a few days till the tattoos completely disappeared.

Max Neuhaus & Times Square

On the morning of June 28 2011, Gen Ken Montgomery took GX Jupitter-Larsen, amk, and Damion Romero to visit the Max Neuhaus sound installation at Times Square. The unmarked block of sound, located on a triangular pedestrian island at Broadway between 45th and 46th Streets, is a thick harmonic texture that hovers over a large underground vault covered by heavy grating. GX commented that the tone seemed to him like a sheet of ice that all other street sounds were skating on. An excerpt of GX’s field recording of Times Square is HERE .

Andrew Novick saves everything...

Andrew Novick is both a horologist and an omniphilist. He has a collection of collections. Is collecting collections louder than just collecting a single type of thing? You should hear his CD of his phone conversations with telephone solicitiors! Is a collector of noise a sonituphilist?


Andrew is also a nemophilist.


Would a collector of cakes be a crustumphilist?


Could a collector of trays be called a patellaphilist?


Would a collector of chaos be called a nusquamphilist? I used to think of myself as a psammologist because I enjoy counting bits of sand.


Lately I’ve also become something of a transportophilist.

Denver about the Polywave (1986 - 2011)

This is the first place I stayed when I first came to Denver in 1986. The Haters had been invited by Paul Dickerson and Mark Metz of We Never Sleep to perform at their Exotic Arts Fest. It was the first time a performance of mine ended in a full scale riot. It was also the first time I actually felt at home somewhere. So much so, in my heart of heart, I still think of Denver as my hometown.


Denver is where both I and my work came of age. The next two years there saw my most outrages performances ever staged anywhere. The building where I stayed in 1987 isn’t there any longer, but the apartment building where I lived in 88 with Paul and company remains.


In the early 90s, travelling back and forth between California and Europe I would stop off in Denver for months at a time. This noisy house was both a home and an arts space. The only time Jello Biafra ever attended a Haters performance, was in the basement of this house in 1992.

After 1994 I wasn't able to get back to Denver untill 2011. Here's the original Denver cast of The Haters at The 2011 Denver Noise Fest: Bob Ferbrache, GX Jupitter-Larsen (myself), and Paul Dickerson.

Static Poem (1986)

This is an early static poem from 1986. My static poetry should be understood in the same manner as the video static coming off an old TV set. The noise is random but the mind will always perceive patterns off the page. More static poems can be found HERE
