Secretary of State - Art Happening

[KKRB3]

how much money did you use?!?!?!?!? o.0

[thenub641]

No wonder they're all "Starving artists".

[Slic3R1]

i wonder how much this would cost?

[hitoritaii]

have you ever done a piece with beads or shells ? i would love to see it if you have

[ItzJustJohn360]

Lol that's a lot of 1's xD

[NYdotcom]

Oh the amount of McNuggets those dollars could've been spent on..Beside that..THIS IS RIDICULOUSLY AMAZING!!

[BlackPlague321]

Nice to know that money is wasted on shit like this when poor people like me are struggling to put food on the table.

[shugohasao]

@BlackPlague321 its not like he is burning it

[darken27]

@BlackPlague321

So utilizing money to pursue a talent is a waste?

It's his money, he can do whatever he wants with it. And if that means building a portrait out of $1 bills, so be it.

[usaearthling]

Very creative, now that is art! Put your money where your talent is.

[Medication102]

FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!

[REMsleeper428]

This is... amazing.

[hiitsoliver8D]

[karenboox33]

[kardtable]

[Kiefosaur]

[caliclips]

[facerzzz]

[hobojo898]

[larry89]

[grassnuggets]

This must've taken you a long time! You're incredible Phil!

[LilaRox1000]

Phil your awesome!

[letskillyoko]

phil, what do you do with the art that's not part of goodbye art?

[metazor1]

Christ, watched over 10 of your videos allready.

Your art is truly amazing! keep up the awesome work man

[Lizzy86]

what are the cubes? its cool though!

[Philinthecircle]

the cubes are just little pieces of wood to wrap the money around.

[Lizzy86]

thanks for replying. i was just being a nerd wanting to know what they were made of :-p

[thesoccerone27]

awesome work. you never cease to amaze me

[TeleShaman]

Phil, you looked cashed...  Another great vid, per usual. Cheers!

[u2soadfan]

0:16 is perfection

[veerleke]

Hey can you make a mermaid out of foam bubbles please or something else ocean-y or water-y? hey you could do a 3-D mermaid by corks attached to nylon lines attached to the bottom of the pool/sea/lake on different hights and thus form a 3-d mermaid or merman underwater?! (i am a HUGE fan of fictional aquatic beings :) )

[sumbitch01]

why dont you just do it if you already came up with the idea!!!

[veerleke]

I don't have the skill and the means to do it myself.. plus i am one lazy bitch, sumbitch.

[veerleke]

Your such a cheap jack! Using little cubes to wrap the money around because you can't afford to make this purely and solely out of money huh ?! tsk tsk tsk

Seriously now: great title, priceless artwork as always ;)

[Philinthecircle]

haha, yeah it would have cost me 3 times as much without the money.

[veerleke]

??? Okay now i m afraid i don't follow you anymore.. 3 times as much without the money? You mean cubes?

[callmegane]

Haha Using all that money and doing all that brain busting putting together I bet would make anyone hot, and probably the money was the closest thing to a fan. :D ***** As aslways. :)

[Philinthecircle]

it got a bit warm, the AC is too far away

[jooeyyjn]

greatest game of tetris ever

[Philinthecircle]

ha, seriously. it fell apart a day after I put the video together. it felt so tetrisy putting it back together

[aznkid156]

philllllllllll.

you fixed the awesome typo! DDD;

-sobs-

that makes me want to replace the 5 i gave you with a 4.5 and round it up a bit

[jooeyyjn]

Holy Crap! Phil replied to me! Sick!

[Teezah01]

[azndjve]

[Philinthecircle]

indeed. the old hair style, and older hair style just got well..... old

[azndjve]

lol, i know how you feel. are you getting the "what happened to you hair?" questions from friends and family?

[sasuke5088]

It's a good thing that you didn't decide to continue the "Goodbye Art" trend as well.

[Philinthecircle]

yeah. it was fun for a while but not that way to do all my work.

[itemno1]

King of arts = philinthe"o"

[aminadoc21]

[EmGiggles]

Wow....you're art is so good and the videos of you making it are great. $545? Wow....that's an expensive piece of art :)

[Philinthecircle]

I hope the videos are cleaner now. I put some work into the room

[o0Sobe0o]

Damn, Phil. You have a crazy-awesome right brain. (the side that controls creativity)

[Shankzilla87]

YOU'RE SO GD CREATIVE

[smokinmokin3]

Awsome... Make more vids!!!!

[evilalicerarr]

how much pre-planning goes into something like that?

[pianoman8765]

I can't even comprehend how you managed to do that....

[HoiChris]

how much money did you use phil?

[photosinmiami]

545$

[lemonsquishy]

phil's got money. MAKE IT RAIN!!!

[larry89]

thats fucking SICK

[gibberanian]

he is so incredibly talented

[NiteBlogger]

awesomeness in action....

[Snooze2120]

love the art, but getting all the money back must have sucked

[ErinFraser3]

How are you so insanely talented?! Geez...

[ipodkiller6]

this makes me want to watch wallstreet haha! by the way i wouldn't have rubbed those dollar bills all of your skin. most of them have probably been between some fat chicks sweaty ass in a strip club

[ticijev]

WOW... genius!

[jgclark45]

Thanks Phil, I enjoyed watching the process.

I love watching artists work

[SHOPAH0LIC]

What happened to all that money afterward

[Horationelson4ever]

he's selling it, it says in the description

[MaybeMidgets]

Hes only selling a picture of it.

[SHOPAH0LIC]

He's selling a photograph, not the actual piece.

[Philinthecircle]

It's sitting on my studio floor. still in the frame. I'm just squeezing it down.

[musicbeats01]

looks cool

[davistran510]

im speechless...im just gonna move up and rate u 5/5. 6/5 if i could

[ijbokn]

That is amazing ._.

[thehazeisgod]

Man, Phil, you truly are a genius on the fast track to becoming one of the greatest artists of all time, at least in my opinion.

[elmexicandehoustone]

NICE

[GoGORockies]

Nice work (Again)

Glad you are not doing Good bye Art.

[killTheExplorer]

omg if u dont want the money i'll take it! jeeze-us

[xmrxkrazy]

hey it's Geithner, not Geitner. And you have the same error on your website. Interesting how no one pointed that out yet..

[Philinthecircle]

hilarious.  thanks.

[TheJonny428]

I was there when you made that

..yeeeh lol

it took forever

[FallOutBoy1201]

Wow the things you do for the sake of art! I love it!

[PabloGener]

as always, 5 stars!

[Empry]

5 stars is not even near to how brilliant these pieces really are!

[nodarp]

Agreed, on so many levels.

[Hotsaucerobface]

YAY! i saw it till about half way, pretty sweeeet

[WreckaNice]

i seen this when he was making it

it was so cool!!!!!!!!!

[kukelz]

wth is tim geitner... and why is he so..money? im not even googling that. I choose to stay ignorant and happy.

[covenantfighter]

and once again you push things to an all new level

i am guessing you subquently got the money back once the picture was done

if not thats a lot of money "wasted" almost, especially in this current economic climate

[olii93]

Phil, you are amazing!

[joannejpeg]

I was watching part of your live show for this :)

It looked so tedious!

[grassjelly991]

looks like borat, kind of

[Philinthecircle]

ha.

[theusedrocks]

cool! nice idea :D

[xRainingMistx]

OH OH OH OH! I WATCHED THE LIVE WEBCAST!

Best day of my life, almost.

LOVING IT PHIL!

[whitemagick4]

[2foxxy4ubaby]

wow...that was a LOT of stripper money that you just wasted on art? who needs art? i would rather have the strippers. ;)

but really, great job. you have some real talent there.

[FreeZeFamouZ]

Nice! I love your art=P You should open a museum with your art=P

[kimnorberg]

Nice that you kept my question in mind while doing the piece! =)

[uberplayer]

[laghes]

And I thought you would pull another "goodbye art".

[Dcopsian]

Phil Phil Phil :)

[TeamVacaville]

[marjorulestheworld]

How long do you need to do this?

[ndtitanlady]

[Philinthecircle]

I left it all together. its still sitting my my studio

[timskeezy07]

what?!

dude, ur crazy good.

x]

[nozerty]

typo in the title ftw?

[azh01e]

so what are you saying?

[memouson239]

soo don't u usually throw away your art pieces afterward u didn't show us

[Mason51515]

that was when he was doing "goodbye art"

[bufar]

That was "Goodbye Art." He stopped doing that a while back. This is "Art Happening."

[madasrabbits06]

epicness!

[bored412]

Used 545 dollars, do you sell these? I bet you could make twice that, with this.

Your art is amazing, awesome skill.

[imsoboredimadethis]

awesome

[11645SW]

If it's any of your art pieces that i'd want, it's THIS ONE

[Monkeysniffer08]

Tim Geitner???

I SO CALLED IT last night on the live cam!

haha.... I figured it had to do with someone who was spending a freaking lot of money.

[Philinthecircle]

Yea, not sure how recognizable he is.

[satyr607]

You have an amazing eye. Love that thing you do.

[gamerska]

Superb!

[simdave2000]

you are clever. :)

[madasrabbits06]

i most definitely watched you create this :)

(that sounds sooo stalker-ish!!)

[Philinthecircle]

No, doesn't sound stalkish that much, maybe a bit!

[madasrabbits06]

if it were out of context then maybe... haha

but i really do admire all the time and effort you put into all of this! i know i would never have the patience/talent to do any thing remotely as amazing at this!

keep it up! :)

[RedWhirlWind]

bet you got some messed up looks when you withdrew all that money

[Philinthecircle]

Yes, prob had some looks my way. There's no such thing as bad looks so yay!

[weeniexcore]

Your art still amazes me:]

[xXSummerwindXx]

you are such a good artist cause one your talented, and two you are more creative when the whole i'm just gonna paint a simple picture and call it art. you are a real modern artist

[somegal09]

neat! another money vid... love these. going to vegas soon?
