For those of you in the Virginia Area, Ryan Mulligan will be performing his new version of “The Stew Lecture” at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts on April 13th. You need a college ID to see the show. Don’t ask me why.
For those of you who don’t know, I cook food for people in galleries, and tell them about the history of soups. Marc knows all about it, you can ask him.

Go here – http://theworldwideweb.com/. Who would’ve thought; I believed it was more advanced than this.
10/05/06 update – when clicking on http://theworldwideweb.com, it used to read “under construction,” now it doesn’t, so this doesn’t make sense anymore. It was funny.

Hi, I’m Ryan Mulligan. I was going to interview myself for my first introductory post on the blog, but realized I didn’t have any good questions. Marc has asked me to join here as a poster in hopes of letting the world find out a little about the rag-tag group of friends who work with Marc on his projects. I live in Virginia and cook for strangers in galleries. I teach art, drive my mom’s Outback, and make videos. Actually I could only think of two questions for the interview.
Q 1. Is your name Ryan Mulligan?
RM — Yes.
Q 2. Really?
RM — What?
Q 3. I’m sorry, I said ‘Really?’
RM — Yea, I understood that part I was just asking why you asked that, like you didn’t believe me.
(pause)
Q 4. Awsome! This is going to be a great interview.
thanks for letting me hang out on the site today.

I finally completed Phase Two of the Human Video Game Experiment – Free Piggyback Rides on Rodeo Drive, per your votes! It was a close call with The Group Portraits on LA Subway Cars. You can see the Phase One video, trying on as many clothes as I possibly could at the St. Vincent DePaul’s Thrift Store, by clicking right here.
More HVGE experimentation to come…

The site will be going through some changes over the next couple weeks. Lot’s easier to navigate, faster to load, and more materials like ongoing guest bloggers, easy access to past projects, searchable, easier to syndicate (podcast), and a brand new forum coming up.
Hang tight and please give me your feedback so I can make this site a nice comfortable place. Thanks and keep tuning in.

I ended up doing the free piggy back rides on Rodeo Drive, the project that got the most votes from The Human Video Game Experiment (HVGE) post. It was fun and terribly exhausting. No pictures or videos yet; soon though.
This project you see here is an alteration of one of the HVGE projects listed, group portraits in public places. Originally, I was going to just stick to subway cars, and simply organize everyone on the car into a group portrait. It was too limiting though, so I took it elsewhere.
Please, please. You have to try this. Go into a place, an elevator, a library, a bar, a hot dog stand, a clothing store, your bank, wherever, and organize as many people there as you can into a group portrait. Cheese – and take the picture!!! If you can get everyone there in the picture, I’ll send you a snickers bar. Got it? Most of these people are strangers and you’ll have to do a little convincing.
Oh yeah, you can pose in the photos if you like. Usually there is someone there who is shy, but doesn’t mind taking the picture for you.
Please send your group portrait photos to me, no cheating (not just you and your friends), at – marc at ineedtostopsoon dot com. Let me know where you took it and in what city and state.
Thanks and I can’t wait to see these. I’d like to put all of these in a zine. It’d be special.
p.s. I’ll post some more HVGE projects to vote on soon. I like that project.
