- Carla Zaccagnini: Museu das Vistas, which means Views Museum. That's a tough one. She sent in her project, that required a desk, a couple of chairs, and a police officer that does spoken portraits. I think the name of it is spoken portraits, when you drescribe a face, and they do this drawing, and then show it to you, and make adjustments, and keep doing it until you say it looks like the face you remember. What she wanted was for the police officer to do drawings of the landscapes around the mansion where the art show was happening, as described by people attending the show. That's a very good idea for a performance. Trouble is, we never heard of her again, so it did not happen. We tried to contact her, but couldn't get an answer. It was very confusing at the time, but today I believe that her work was, in fact, this vanishing act. You know: sometimes people go and do spoken portraits of missing people. And there were we, facing the fact of a missing artist!
- But what if it was just a case of she dropping the idea of being in the show and forgetting to tell you people, and then catching a plane to Paris? What if it was just a communication failure?
- Too late, man! If that's the case, she was part of the show, anyway, in a translucid action with us!
- What is a translucid action?
- That's an action that even the artists involved in might not notice is art until some time later. I don't know about her, but I have just found out about it! Either the vanishing act was her work of art, or she was in this translucid action with us! Wathever was the case, I'm still having fun almost three years down the road! Good show!

- Bruno de Carvalho: Untitled. That was a sound sculpture that was drowned by the resounding crowd at the opening night. It was supposed to be sounds of fireguns and explosions. It was a great practical joke installation, but History took over the sound that night, man. And it was on only for the opening night, so it was a bit like those Beatles concerts in which the band could not hear themselves in the middle of the screaming mass. Underneath the shouting wild surface, some great music!

- That's bobN, or Bob N, as it is usually mispelled. That's Piscinão do Lage, which means Lage's Big Pool, and is a pun on a suburban public pool here in Rio that goes by the nickname Piscinão de Ramos. As I told you before, he used the pool in the middle of the mansion that houses the art school. The pool was empty for the art show, and he invited different artists to use it each day of the art show. It was kind of a distorted fractal image of the show itself. Very good! He also had this photo portrait of himself and a Barbie doll impersonator. It was called Portrait: Bob & Barbie. The portrait hung from one of the walls of the empty pool, and it was quite a laugh for me. Good show!

- Bernardo Pinheiro. He did that lovingly disturbing video-installation I told you about. Strictly for the strong of mind.
- OK. Next?
- Beth Ferrante: Vertigem, which means Vertigo. Not my favorite painting at the show, but I can appreciate her chutzpa, man! It was kind of retro, like back to transvanguarda, you know?
Like 1985, or something! She has guts, man! I like that!

- Beatriz Petrus: Da Série Comentários (n. 14), which means From the Commentary series (n. 14). That's two photos of parts of a tennis court as seen from above. I like Mondrian, and Kraftwerk, and I sure did like those photos. That's all I have to say about that.
- OK. Next?
- Bernardo Damasceno: Um Bom Lugar, which means A Good Place. That's the match-made miniature of one of Lage Park's benches I've talked about before. I don't care if people get it or not: this one is fantastic!

jesus fuck (is not dope fiend propaganda)
I hear Prince Harry is not going to the Iraq War. Good! Next, they could go ahead and do something about finding the original 25-minute version of the Beatles singing Helter Skelter till Ringo starts shouting, and also that lost single by Jesus and Mary Chain that the workers at the factory refused to press. It WILL bring us closer to a much better democracy, trust me. Then maybe the Pope will consider doing a hip hop version of Cocaine with Eminem. Yeah, complete with that slow-hand guitar sample, and some favela funk beat! I'm sure My Bloody Valentine will love to be on that one!

Generation 2000 against total chaos (part 40)
- Posição 2004: your notes.
- OK. Andréa Facchini: Volúpia, which means Voluptuousness. That was a painting tryptic I liked very much. I believe the images were of a mountain of folded colorful fabric. That's what hit me, anyway. I liked her technique, and being a feast for the eyes is quite enough for me.
- OK. Next?
- Anna Braga: Puro Álibi, which means Pure Alibi. I liked her installation, even if I can't say I know what she meant. There were some signs hanging from the trees in the park outside the mansion, as if it were some kind of stark pop prophesy. I vaguely remember a white statue, maybe just the head of a bust, emerging from the bathtub of the mansion, which was full of coal or some other black stuff. I think there was a mirror in front of it. Anyway, it felt quite ominous, and that's good enough for me!
- OK. Next?
- Arjan Martins: painting directly on the wall, untitled. I just love what he does to walls and paper rectangles. This one was probably one of his best stuff ever! He likes to draw bones in this brown-red paint, like its dry blood, or something similar. It can be quite disturbing at times. And for this one, he also stuck a bullet to the wall, and guess what? He found the bullet in his own home! It was a stray bullet that could have actually killed him! Now, he does not pretend to be a hero of any kind, as I see it. I saw him telling the story of how he found it, and he is just an artist that paints and draws what he sees and feels, and this time around he just felt he had to put this piece of metal into the picture. It works for me!
- OK. Next?
- Baby Bittencourt: EAVMaria, which is a contraction of EAV (the name of the visual art school where the show happened), and Ave Maria, which means Holy Mary, the catholic prayer. It was a great place for me to be, her installation. It looked like an improvised chapel, with all seats different from each other. Mostly stools, if I remember it right. And, instead of an altar, this screen that showed a series of photos of herself, dressed as a smiling Holy Mary, under the arches at the entrance of the school. She was floating, friendly, and a true ecumenic blessing! Amen!

Legalise crack
- Why?
- Because I've read it's a quick orgasmic high! That makes it as addictive as the tobacco cigarette, which is a cool combination! You work like nuts for your boss, until you can't take it no more, then you have a quick ten-minute trip on crack, light up your Marlboro, and go back to work without pausing for lunch! You produce more, because you must pay for your two addictions! You are so fucking electric all the time you don't even sleep right, or want sex, so the Government has to produce other slaves like you through genetic engineering! That way we don't have any sex perverts left, 'cause everybody is just too fucking hyped up! So the utopia of a nation of sexless shopping-freak workaholics becomes a reality, in the name of Jesus or whatever! Tell me you can see how great this is!
- Uh -- Sorry! I'm so wired I could not concentrate! I missed everything you said after that orgasmic high stuff!

Vibrators to the people
- Yeah! People need to stick up vibrators up their asses! The human race is always two vibrator-induced anal orgasms under normal, so the United Nations should just give them away for free to every citizen of the planet! That would bring the numbers of violence to a squirming ecstatic downward spiral!
- Do you use vibrators up you ass yourself, sir?
- Just my baby finger, actually! But I'm willing to expand my practical views on the subject!

Generation 2000 against total chaos (part 39)
- Posição 2004: your notes.
- OK. André Sheik: Janelas, which means Windows. That one was awesome! It was a video on a TV on a pedestal, facing an open window. The images I don't remember, because the best part was the image kept going totally black from time to time, like it was defective, or even turned off! Then the window facing the tube "entered" the picture because it was reflected on its surface, as it got dark! So you had to notice it when the images came back. People were freaked out, man! They were complaining about malfunctioning, or sorry about its supposed misplacement! If being misunderstood is sometimes equal to avant-garde, Sheik was a complete success!
- Oh, so you still believe in the avant-garde?
- It won't die, man! No matter what you or me have to say about it! It just keeps coming back, even if we refuse or are unable to see it! That's why I don't worry and just keep on doing what I like! That's all we can do!

stop the vomit with pot
- What?
- Well, I've heard this guy on TV twenty years ago, saying that marijuana stops you from feeling sick while drinking, so you don't vomit, and you keep drinking, and he was worried about an increase in teenage alcoholism. OK, but he forgot to mention that lots of teenage guys get quite drunk in order not to feel the fear of the first time they fuck someone. And sometimes it just makes them puke all over the person! So, if you want your het daughter or gay bottom son to avoid being puked all over when all they want is some hot cock up their holes, you should legalise marijuana!
- Wow! I'm really hot to drink your piss, now!

- OK. Next?
- Ana Holck, whose work I have mentioned before. That great piece of art is called Impedimento #3, which means Impediment #3
- OK. Next?
- Ana Paula Andrade, another one I've mentioned before. The name of it is Glue.
- OK. Next?
- Ana Torres, of the postcards and outdoors I told you about. They were called Janelas, which means Windows.
- OK. Next?
- André Alvim: Obra, which means Work, in the sense of art object or the sum of all works by an artist. I don't remember the details, but it had a Side A and a side B, because he used one of those moving wood walls that people use to lean their paintings against. I don't know the name of it. But I thought it very smart to use it like he did. Like a good idea hidden in front of everyone, and he found it!
- OK. Next?
- André Makarenko: Dois Vídeos, which means Two Videos. As I said before, I had lots of fun watching them a few times, and that's more than enough for me to praise the guy!

the surgeon general gives you
Sound advice when you go to Rio de Janeiro: abuse com moderação. That means ABUSE IT WITH MODERATION. If you want to get dead drunk and be photographed by your friends as you get fucked in the ass by a black she-male while you suck another ladyboy's dick, and have it posted on the web, please ignore the aforementioned advice and get sorted beyond belief, as long as it is your money! It's a freek country!

Sprite Zero and organic cachaça
- What is organic cachaça?
- I don't know, man!
- Is it any good?
- Well, I look drunk, don't I? Sure it's good!
- And where are you going?
- Oh, I found this VIP pass at Dama de Ferro, at the end of the after hours techno party, so I am going to this cocktail party.

Generation 2000 against total chaos (part 36)
- Did you see this story? The Revista do Globo has run a cover story about Geração 2000, that means Generation 2000! Care to comment?
- Well, some of them were at Posição 2004. And I believe that the Generation 2000 involves people of all ages, if they are tuned in to the free-form spirit of it. Because age is like the support: anything goes!
- Would you care to say something about the artists featured in the story? How about Antônio Bokel, Daniel Murgel, Júlio Callado, Luíza Baldan, and Gustavo Speridião? They were not part of Posição 2004.
- Well, I liked the small photo of Bokel's painting. I'm not sure I've seen his work before, but he seems to be all over the painting, trying to make it scream, and I like that punch! Daniel Murgel I know from Pyrata, a group show organised by Grupo Py on the Rio-Niterói ferryboat. He did a performance called The Curator, in which he went around freaking out and giving orders, and making sardonic comments on us artists. Great show! Callado's photo hit me as subtle despair, as you can't see where the the roads go, like they go nowhere. And then it feels peaceful. I like the unclear message thing! Baldan's photo was good because I don't understand what it is about the greens a blues of it that just got me mesmerized. I also can't understand the place where she took it, which adds to the spacey effect. Very good! And Speridião's cover graffitti was fantastic!
Calling a brick shape a cloud! Twelve lines, a word, a dot. Total Punk Rock Artcore!
-OK. Back to Posição 2004. Daniel Toledo.
- His Homem Espelho means Mirror Man, and is a heavy suit that covers his face, too, like a space suit made of broken glass! He just goes around smashing the world without any actual act of violence! It's a carnival of fragments! It's creepy and freaky and I love it!
- Joana Csekö?
- She did this triangular pile of POP washing machine soap. It was almost smashed to pieces at the opening night, because of the enormous crowd trying to walk around it. It was saved somehow, and rebuilt the next day, so it stayed on the show. She called it Persistent Organic Polluter, or something, and I really liked it. My notes don't go that far, because I was taking them while we were at Gê's place, during an éramos 3 meeting. I could not concentrate, and started taking notes from the forms that the artists filled for us to organise the space inside the show. I suppose Gê still have them projects. I went as far as letter D. Anyway, the POP triangular pile was one big slab of political art fun, thank you very much!
- Guga Ferraz?
- That guy is great! He was selling cleaning cloths, like the one's janitors and maids use to wipe the floor here in Brazil. They were white and had the face of George W. Bush silk-screened to it. I just love his sense of humor! I'm sure President Bush can tolerate this, for he believes in democracy.
- Bernardo Pinheiro?
- He did this excellent video-installation, that left some people quite disturbed. If you are sensitive about images of eyes, I would not advise going inside. If you like Un Chien Andalou, then it's pretty much nice clean fun. I watched it several times, for it was short enough, and sharp fun, for sure!
- Are you upset that Revista do Globo never once mentions Posição 2004?
- Oh, they will mention it soon enough. Just wait and see.

Another moronic idea in Amsterdam
- You did what?
- I ate like one gram of hash, and went back to my hotel, to watch some TV. I was feeling so relaxed, I thought I would stop breathing as soon as I closed my eyes and went to sleep. The visual effects on the videos felt unreal, like I was really hallucinating. I found out later they were IN the videos, not in my mind. Eventually, I realised the idea of stopping breathing was ridiculous, and told myself to relax and sleep. My death was the worse that could happen. So I slept in total bliss.

Generation 2000 against total chaos (part 35)
- Posição 2004. You found the aftermath notes. Let's hear it!
- OK. Adriana Heemann: Densidades.
- Translation?
- Densities. That's the title of those drawings I mentioned. The black and white ones. Gutsy! Nice!
- Right. Next?
- Adriano Melhem: Rubinho e Força Bruta. He is listed as Adriano on the flyer, and the name refers to the band he painted expressionistic portraits of.
- Right. Next?
- Alberto Saraiva: Organismo de Vigília: vigiar é sonhar, sonhar é vigiar.
- The one with the surveillance cameras for breakfast, right?
- Yeah. The title means Surveillance Organism, and also Awakened (as opposed to Asleep) Organism. The subtitle means: to keep watch (as a sentinel) is to dream, and to dream is to keep watch. Nice going!
- Right. Next?
- Alexandre Ferreira: Pro-Labore. That means the money you receive to help pay for the work you're exhibiting, once you are selected for some art show. The money box, remember? Sharp!
- Right. Next?
- Alexandre Sá: Instalativa 1.6, which translates as: Installative1.6. The one with the empty metal frames and the leaflets and hammers.
- Right. Next?
- Alice Miceli: 88 de 14.000, which means 88 out of 14.000. This one was a video on a TV on a short pedestal, with a place for you to sit down and watch, and it was situated at the end of the basement's hallway. It was a fusion of an image that looked like an up-close shot of the asphalt road passing along a moving automobile, with mug-shots of political prisioners from somewhere in the Far East or something. It was rather peaceful, like a silent Requiem Mass. The moving image Missa pro defunctis for the forgotten human beings. Really good!
- OK. Adriana Heemann: Densidades.
- Translation?
- Densities. That's the title of those drawings I mentioned. The black and white ones. Gutsy! Nice!
- Right. Next?
- Adriano Melhem: Rubinho e Força Bruta. He is listed as Adriano on the flyer, and the name refers to the band he painted expressionistic portraits of.
- Right. Next?
- Alberto Saraiva: Organismo de Vigília: vigiar é sonhar, sonhar é vigiar.
- The one with the surveillance cameras for breakfast, right?
- Yeah. The title means Surveillance Organism, and also Awakened (as opposed to Asleep) Organism. The subtitle means: to keep watch (as a sentinel) is to dream, and to dream is to keep watch. Nice going!

- In the eye of the skull?
- Yeah! I got some rubber cushion works inside to make it comfy for my dick to move around! It's nice!
- Rubber cushions? You nancy boy!
- Nah! You're just saying that to woo me into taking off my panties!

Generation 2000 against total chaos (part 34)
- Good news about Posição 2004! I found some notes I made, that probably date back to a few weeks after the art show, and might help make my memory clearer!
- Let's hear it, then!
- I forgot them back home! But I believe I read that Ana Paula Andrade did some glue and paint plastic object wall objects or something! My notes are very laconic, I'm a bit sorry to say. I truly hope we can get more info somewhere else. Anyway, they were small colorful wall objects. They were made with white glue and acrylic paint, and didn't need anything else, for me, because they were beautiful, and different, and SEEMED SO EASY TO MAKE! Like the New Wave Punk Rock explosion, they seemed to say: YOU TOO CAN HAVE THIS MUCH FUN! I loved it!

plain english
Because I live in a democracy, I am against dictatorships, and a strong critic of the government, and will always be, except if I come to live in a dictatorship myself, in which case I will keep my mouth shut, like a good citizen. I will even say that I live in a democracy, if I'm told to do so.
Generation 2000 against total chaos (part 33)
The following excerpt (in portuguese, as in the original) was deemed free of any hidden terrorist codes. The removal of operatives Green and Orange seems to have been a coincidence. We have as yet no proof that any of the underground cells we are investigating were aware of their activities. Feel free to ask for more details on their messages. Here's the transcript of the aforementioned excerpt:
Lembra que eu falei que ia escrever um livro chamado A GERAÇÃO 2000 CONTRA O CAOS TOTAL, pra falar da ação e/ou maluquice coletiva que foi o Posição 2004? Pois eu comecei um blog pra escrever umas coisas, e no meio virou essa mistura, que inclui partes que falam sobre aqueles dias no Parque Lage. Parece que virou um livro sobre espionagem, com pitadas de poesia, registro histórico, e nonsense puro e simples.
Minha idéia era escrever tudo que eu pudesse, de memória. Mais adiante, começaria a mostrar pras pessoas, e pediria que contribuíssem com informações, e/ou depoimentos. Ou que escrevessem suas próprias versões, em outros blogs ou algo assim.
