Futureproof Paul 'Pious'James Pippy Poopy the Muskrat Deman Giovanni £rd was born Paul Gerald Fullbrook on April 23rd 1969 in a cave in Winchester, the one time Capital of Britain... |
|
|
|
The first 5 years of Mr Fullbrooks life were relatively normal..
He slid about on his bum...
He farted without shame and with careful interest...
He didn't say much...
And he learnt to ride a bike...
|
|
|
|
|
|
EVERYTHING APPEARED NORMAL!!!
But somewhere around the age of 5, things became weird..
|
|
|
|
Yes boss, after seeing Fullbrook sing 'Somewhere Over The Rainbow' on TV, an obscure cosmic religious sect known as Club Giovanni became convinced Fullbrook was the third incarnation of the mystic prophet, soothsayer and social comenteer Paul Giovanni... |
|
|
|
 |
|
Club Giovanni believe a 23 strong dynasty of prophets have been sent from space to spread clear thinking and positvity via seering written critique, PUERILE SHOUTING!!!! creative practice and subliminal thought control… |
|
|
|
The first incarnation of Paul Giovanni was Paul Giovanni - a folk singer who composed the wonderful theme music to original The Wicker Man film... |
|
|
|
 |
|
The 2nd incarnation was Karol Józef Wojtyła AKA Giovanni Paolo II
Of course, Karols genius for spiritual leadership was also seen by the Catholic Church - who nabbed him for their top job whilst agents of Club Giovanni were out having a fag...
Karol was however awarded the role in his absence...
|
|
|
|
And so...
Not wishing a repeat of the ballsup with Karol, once sure they'd correctly identified Fullbrook as the 3rd Giovanni, he was kidnapped and hidden before any other quasi religious group could claim his powers and so began his work...
|
|
|
|
 |
|
The innaguration of PG3 took place in a very posh Bed & Breakfast in The Alps on April 26th 1975..
After welcoming the crowd, the rites were officially wronged..
Songs were sang...
And after solemnly pledging his allegiance, Giovanni was presented with the 'Branch Of Truth'
|
|
|
|
And so it came to pass that Fullbrook became the third incarnation of Paul 'Pious' James Deman Giovanni £rd....
PG£ hugged feet and then he performed the 'Sacred Ribbon Dance'..
|
|
|
|
 |
|
In the SRD, the letters PG£ are created and destroyed 23 times.
The dance signifies the holy circle of life, & the useless power of the number 23...
It recognises that though the ego drives everything - it's of no real importance at all..
|
|
|
|
Feeling energised by the power and emotion of the ceremony, Giovanni £rd (with the aid of 2 fluffy cats) then performed an 18 hour music concert during which time he virtuosly played 23 instruments including the xylophone, bagpipes, lute and moog... |
|
|
|
 |
|
Then, 3 days after the party had simmered, Giovanni £rd set about learning and discovering the ways of the world so as to learn how to be fully pious, completely righteous and utterly smug....
|
|
|
|
Giovanni 3 learned how to ride pigs.... |
|
|
|
 |
|
He learned the art of statuesque stillness.... |
|
|
|
He learnt how to maintain order.... |
|
|
|
 |
|
And he learnt how to Rock 'N' Roll.... |
|
|
|
In 2003, after 1 marriage & 1 divorce Giovanni £rd felt ready and experienced enough to commence his Official Ministry Business....
|
|
|
|
 |
|
Of course, the first place to start ones megalomaniac piosity is to create and control ones own media.
PG£ began this process with a blog variously known amongst other thinngs as 'The Cuddling Pop Blog'
This blog comprised 1200 posts and ran for 2 Years and 3 Days.
It was posted on myspace & blogspot to a very reasonable level of acclaim...
|
|
|
|
To accompany this written sermon, on December 23rd 2007 at 23:23pm Giovanni released the first in a 23 Episode set of themed tuneshows called Casa Hasa Giovanna |
|
|
|
 |
|
Having seen his work was good
Giovanni began the creation of www.paulgiovanni.com and set about employing a 12 person Private Staff
Early appointments included his Official Ex-Wife and an Official Artist...
|
|
|
|
2009 saw the Paul Giovanni Coropration stretch it's legs further...
PG£ split The Futureproof Blog into 4 separate blogs, he increased his photographic work, and started to think about making new music…
|
|
|
|
 |
|
THEN BEGAN THE 1ST PG£UCH!!!
