"Who is zis "Craig" and why does he want to leev in my "pod"? I feel as zo 'I am trapped in a glass case of emotion'.

As for my ferret, Filth, he has been very bad. Drinking my wine, humping my vibrator, and sneaking out into ze desert at night to go to raves. Zis morning I awoke at noon to find him wearing a feathered pimp hat and covered with dust and lipstick. Ze glow stick up his ass was ze final straw.

While he may be seduced by your disgusting desert activities, I do not approve. He is to fuss over me, kiss my perfectly pointed French nose and cower beneath my choice of moods. Much like my past lovers, but without all of zos pesky pleas for sex."

Sure you say that now...

And only if you like high maintenance women.

(Yeah, I'm one of those lower maintenance women who gets bitter about the attention high maintenance women get. Wanna make something of it?)

Zsu Zsu- Drama Queen IN SPACE!

Post by Mister Jellyfish Mister » Fri Oct 12, 2007 8:02 am

Robotland posted a good point over on the U-Me thread regarding the installation:

"Can't you just call the monkey "Zsu Zsu" and bring the capsule back out next year?"

We know there's lots of art deserving of grants out there. If we are not awarded one for Zsu Zsu in 2008, we will certainly scale the project down due to finances and d6 and I were cackling about the possibilities.

Imagine painting the whole capsule pink, with hearts and love letters on it. Like Femme Fetal Steam Punk. Inside, Zsu Zsu sits where the chimp was, and she complains... a lot... about having to go to "spass". The reluctant French astronaut who just wants to be a crybaby drama queen. She won't lift a finger so you have to launch it:

"10, 9, 8, I am bored. Perhaps tomorrow".

Maybe you have to learn the countdown in French and speak it into the microphone for her?

Interactive microphone instead of simon buttons, having it indoors fixes the wind problem with the mic and would still cue in to the voice recognition software so she can converse with participants. She could have a little salon inside with antique perfume bottles, copies of Vogue, Victorian doilies, what else?

I wonder if we could modify one of these to look like her:
http://www.wowweealiveonline.com/elvis/index.html

It's from the same vendor that made the chimp head, but we would have to hack deeper since individual movement controls are not on the remote control.

I have to fight the inclination to just do a different version of last years art. It's safer to build off of successes but we don't get to stretch as much as creating a whole new piece. Something about that carries us through the tough parts when bringing a new creation to life. Whatever we end up doing, it's got to be funny!

Post by Lassen Forge » Fri Oct 12, 2007 9:05 am

I think that if you tried to adapt Zsu-Zsu into the Ume capsule you'd lose the effect.

The whole thing about both projects is conceivability. The U-ME capsule was a monkey shot into space. Zsu-Zsu is a whiny french bimbo secluding herself in her trailer whining at everyone about not getting her way, and anything else she will be boored weeth... Both are plausable. A whiny french drama queen in a space capsule? Why would a snooty, whiny french chick even go INTO a space capsule? Ask her...


You are Sillee Boyz... Spass capsuhl? Moi?? Peh!!

Eet is NOT at all like my Left Banq Paris Penthouse suite! I em a sweet Parisianne Socialite, weee dew NOT go near ze feelthy Mechanical Gaa-zhets! Spass?? Keese me while I am to kick you in ze Gonads...

Now, pour me another Chamagne, you peeg!


It'd be like, hell, I dunno, like taking Disney's Haunted Mansion and keeping the facade in front but turning it into a bland motel inside - sure, people would go to it, but it wouldn't have the magic... I think it may kill it.Plus, Ume is too famous. People know the cpasule, and the monkey. They love it.

IMO - this is just an opinion, I am not ze arteeeest -


No, you are not, Vous are steupeed Yanqui bimbo beetch, Beebee... Get away beefore I Soil you with zees Champagne to throw upon you!!!

It'd be kewl if you used the audioanimanitronic tehc developed FOR Ume tech and built the ZsuZsu trailer around her using that same type of... well, you know, make it superinteractive. Example...


You have her beckon people to come near the window, where the mic can pck up the victim's voice (which was triggered by the weight sensor in the chair on the playa... You can cue it from there, but it could be an opener. She could tell them what to do to continue on...

She tells them to bring her a gift - "I like ze candy, you bring me ze box of candy, I will theenk about talking to you..." - to open the door before she will even think about seeing them. Of course, the gift could be pre-done boxes of candy in a trash can with a keycard thing inside to allow the door to pop...

Man, you could expand so much on this, using the same interactivity like the Simon game but more so. Example - She tells you to put "Ze Geeft" on ze table, if you son't, se cries and shreiks, but you do, and it progresses to the next stage of the "game"...


OOHHH!! You steenking beetch, I will to have to scratch out your eyeballs in ze catfight!! You to tell ze boys about how I am to play zem?? I HATE you!!!!! (sob sob sob...)

But the whole thing about her and her secluded shithole trailer and Feelth running around like an evil dervish is as central to her character as the capsule was to ume's. Plus - think of the different effects you could do in a trailer, from a wafting perfume mister to make it steenk, to a smoke machine having her blow her Gauloises Cigarette into the victim's face... if they get that far with her. A trailer would give you boatloads of usable space for Animitronics you would never have in the tiny capsule... You wouldn't have to worry about outside noise if the interactive action - or part of it - was inside.

After all, ze French Preencess MUST have her castle to bark at ze pazzersby from, otherwise is like... well... .


OH would you just zhut up, beebee? I vill sic Feelth upon your ankles...

Damn, Bee Bee, you really "get" her! Your turn of phrase is very nice.

I totally agree that the trailer is the way to go. But it MUST be custom made and heart-shaped so it looks like her ex lover went to extreme lengths for the love of her. Flowered window box, white picket fence, Eifull tower mood meter, the works.

I like your idea of the gift center. Sharon pointed out that the way a spoiled woman refuses a gift is to let it drop from her hand. If it falls into what appears to be a trash can filled with so many bouquets of flowers and heart-shaped boxes of chocolate, ouala! A mannequin arm with an optical sensor would do nicely.

Here's something new that Z-Spy and I brainstormed on:

The Zsu Zsu Burn...

Sunday morning, all of the electronics and valuables are removed from the trailer, and a sign like an eviction notice is placed on her door reading:
"Zsu Zsu: this is your final warning. We're sick of your drama queen shit. Come out before dark or we'll burn you out".

That evening, a marching band plays French chanteuse and "torch songs". Fire spinners attempt to dazzle and draw her out. The lone speaker left inside continues to blurt out her protests. When the Trailer and Eifull Tower are ignited she screams in agony.

Then, when her cries have gone quiet and a hush ensues over the crowd save the murmers of disbelief, just when all have given up hope, a spotlight swings to the right and Zsu Zsu (an acrtress who did her voice-overs and emulates her look) emerges from the crowd atop an art car holding a microphone.

Ztupeed heepies! Zees is wireless microphone, no? Where is ze Man? I wish to see him burn now".

"That was yesterday!" The crowd laughs.

Maybe she confesses her guilt and begs forgivenes. Maybe she thanks by name all of the people who worked on her. Then, we follow her to the Temple Burn where she finally wakes up and joins her community. That's a lot of hugs!

I've never burned any of my art, and am just itching to do so. What to do with the ashes? Fill some heart shaped-lockets?

Just watched "The Hudsucker Proxy" again...Our protagonist's short-term love interest is an apparently French starlet named "Za Za" with a slippery accent....and "Green Acres" seems to ALWAYS be on, now. Creative confluence, dahlink?

and hows that language barrier, why don't you send her to one of them speach doctors, I told her my name is Dale, she keeps callin' me Darrel.
Goddamit, I hate it when people call me Darrel, my fukin name is Dale man.

You have my darling Zsu Zsu confused with Kranky the Klown! He wants to pack your beak with prison powder.

I know that my precious Zsu Zsu has an ass so tight you could bounce a quarter off it and hit the ceiling fan... and it smells only of french bread and spring flowers. Oh, to savor just one bite-- but it is not to be, mon cheri! Her love is like a wafting breeze that beguiles me in the night!
