—–

It’s at least 6 floors, Hucka D. And you’re in the final three so far (!)

Hucka D.:

Merk B. Coolie!

bb:

The final one, so far — “SoSo” — could be a type of culminating work, if so. It *could* be the end.

Hucka D.:

You’ve been saying that for weeks and weeks and weeks.

bb:

True, but I’m finally, finally running out of gallery space. Pretty big building!

Hucka D.:

Who’s SoSo, then[ since it’s so so important]?

bb:

Seal the Singer. But not Seal the Singer. A black child/ A black adult? Someone bald? I want to say it’s a child because this is a cartoon seal, moreso than the 2nd Life Grey Seal used in previous collages.

Hucka D.:

True[ enough].

bb:

It’s also an alien, since this is the tombstone of the Aurora, Texas alien that Firesign Theatre later poked fun of in their album Everything You Know Is Wrong.

Hucka D.:

Good to write that out.

bb:

I’m trying to guess the nature of the [local] graves of course.

Hucka D.:

Peter’s Grave. Peter Graves.

bb:

Peter SoSo.

Hucka D.:

Yup. (Hucka D. pops mouth with last “p”).

bb:

So the base photo for this one is White Rock, a projection from the much larger No Title Rock.

Hucka D.:

You got it.

bb:

The toy crew — Strang Gang — that tried to enter 4 Sticks back in January appears here, fronted by albino turtle. Another turtle, like we have Green Turtle near top of No Title Rock above it, and then a duplicate albino turtle making its way down the rock toward its larger version. The white fungus on White Rock is probably another representation of same. That’s the skull-like fungus from “Ghost Sticks”, a scary collage.

Hucka D.:

This isn’t as scary. This is acceptance.

bb:

Of death?

Hucka D.:

Yes. And a colorful afterlife.

bb:

It’s a mystery just like the SoSo grave of Pietmond was a mystery. 2 mysteries that are 1 mystery?

Hucka D.:

Appears so. SoSo so.

bb:

Stop that.

Hucka D.:

Okay.

bb:

Why are Aunt Joe and Uncle Zoe here?

Hucka D.:

They have also made peace with their evil villanous ways in the afterlife, like Darth Vader appearing to Luke Skywalker all shiny and stuff after his killing.

bb:

So they did do awful things.

Hucka D.:

Oh you bet. And to my people!

bb:

Sorry about that.

Hucka D.:

It’s okay. They all come back. Again and again. Week after week.

bb:

The albino turtle or what we are calling such might be another ghost, white in nature and all ectoplasm-y.

Hucka D.:

Yes.

bb:

The mystery of the 2989 curse is also resolved in the afterlife.

Hucka D.:

Yes. Multiplied together to get not one thing not another thing but both together. Afterlife.

bb:

And then the spinning Manchester statuette is also back, appearing one other time in Falmouth in “Fairy Branch”. It represents a body of a grave there, it seems. Seal again?

Hucka D.:

You bet.

bb:

This seems to resolve “Ghost Sticks”, it might resolve “Rock, His Story”, completing the story as it is, were.

Hucka D.:

You know the ultimate or final rock[ now].
