Considering I post once every 3-6 months, I'm flattered by the infamy, especially since I share it with some of the best people and artists who visit this place. Quite the honour, really.

Suit is nullified by Neckbeard.

Is there a facebook event?
Any artists announced?

On the question of artistic identity, and stuff...

Some artists will chose to change their name / use multiple identities depending on which project they are working on or with which media they are conveying their art through.
For some of these artists, the name change is effectively a change in artistic persona, involving the question of the subject's perspective and identity in their work. Read on Romain Gary/Emile Ajar for a real life example. Or ask Carl, maybe. Some will produce their work through a character's perspective as a layer between the artist and its work, yet will still release their work under their name. David Bowie would be a good example of that.

Most artists will release all of their work under the same name, be it their legal name or their pseudonym.

Now, considering that a lot of artists dabble, explore, evolve, morph etc... where do you draw the line? At which point did X became Y and should X be now known as Y? If said point in time has been determined, does X have to be known as Y?

Now, my personal opinion is that every artist should be free to present themselves as they wish, be it their name or how they choose to label their work. The audience members will decide what suits them.

Say I like my curry extremely spicy. Say Restaurant A advertises on their menu extremely spicy curry +++. I order it. It's subjectively bland.
Now I have a few options:
-Try Restaurant B (Yay! Their curry is so spicy I can barely handle it!)
-Fuck a curry, I don't ever want curry again in my whole life, just give me a burger already! (My loss. Curry is awesome.)
