“He who makes a BOT of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man.” - Dr. Johnson. *Swipe 1-6 for detail* Do the #BotBop! Check out my latest @steadmanart Ralph Steadman-styled / “#FearAndLoathingInLasVegas” illustration I put together in tribute to LA actor/performance artist/musician @GothRobot2.0! It was inspired by @RealKrisKegley AKA Keg’s song Bot Bop and its music video by my friend filmmaker @LawrenceHollie73. The song and it’s instrumental version are featured throughout the tribute video I posted awhile back. Bot Bop: https://youtu.be/qmGkZ6tygVw This piece is also based on Goth Robot 2.0’s Desert monologue video which begins “I like walking around the desert...” https://youtu.be/UCgzvtz2uTA It must be also said that this version of a Goth Robot was inspired by the original creation seen in the work of our friend writer/director John Hartman’s #ReelGroovyFilms. https://youtu.be/GtFzqSdHn-Q My artwork was recently seen on KegsLaborDaySpecial, which is a DIY variety show that featured a ton of music, comedy, art and more from creators in LA, Boston, Bulgaria and more! You can see John’s work in it as well as our friend the Prof. Of Surrealism Mick Cusimano. Find it on YouTube or via http://KegRocks.com. It’s also on Keg’s social media channels. I urge you to also check out Lawrence’s great short film “Signs And Portents” featuring Goth Robot 2.0 and Keg, which debuted during the Labor Day special: https://youtu.be/hS-bWTEfXIY You may remember “The Lone Ranger Of Rock” KEG from his stint on “America’s Got Talent” or from his tunes on punk icon @henryandheidi Henry Rollins’ @KCRW radio show.
