A statue of Yasuke, an African Slave who arrived in Japan in 1579 and became the first black samurai.
I love discovering unusual stories no one has heard of. They are perfect for bizarre!

Vampira would be a great topic for a bizarre presentation.

Just a note, if you are looking for inspiration for an effect, use the group – that’s what it’s here for.
And I’m a firm believer in going outside of the “normal” topics and presenting interesting stories and artifacts that people have never heard of but are true (as far as they can google). Seeing and hearing something new grabs audiences.
Just do a search in the group for “For your files”’ and you’ll see there is method to my madness – hundreds of unusual topics from around the world accumulated over years that can be the basis of props, effects and stories/scripts you create from the ground up.
Creation of your own piece or scripts is one of the most fulfilling things as an artist. Yeah it takes a lot of thinking and…hard play. Sometimes it’s useful to bounce ideas off of someone. I’m fortunate in that I have my friend @[1696603043:2048:Ross Berteig] who lives near me. If you have no one, you have us. That’s what the group is for. It is private and members are carefully curated to be brothers and sisters of the craft from all over the world. The largest gathering of bizarrists in history. We are each other’s Shadow Network (like Brother Shadow devised).
I guess I just hope you are inspired and animated by this witches brew of ideas in this group. That’s why I created it. The world needs more true magicians to make the people think differently because of great art.
So Mote It Be,
RedGrave
