The "Carpool Lane"

An Art car of the Blow Pod Theme Camp

Inspiration:

This art car was inspired in 2008 by the theme, The American Dream, my long time desire to bring an art car to the community, as well as my desire to be able to travel the city with those I meet, (being able to make friends and travel the city together!) It will be nuts, "green" powered, and will carry as many as six people.

Starting Out:

This is what I acquired in 2008. It is an electric three wheeled vehicle; has been to BRC a number of times; you can see that the roof has been whacked off; and it is no longer ... well, art.

The Concept:

The "Jetsons Concept":

The whole vehicle will be made of shiny silver foil material, with a matching roof, reminding us of the future dream we seem so far from.

The "Green Concept":

This GREEN solar-electric, carpool-ready vehicle will host a solar panel on it's roof, and will advertise it's greenness on the sides of the roof skirt.

The "Apocalypse Concept":

OK, we all know that our highly ethical governments will soon blow the earth up, and what we get to see in those industrial end-of-the-world movies will ensue. So, to remind us of that, the roof will host gas lanterns and other propane torch light effects.

The "Cool Concept":

Lights, lights, and more lights! In addition to the eerie effects of the gas lighters, the whole vehicle will be decorated with lost of bright cool colorful LED effects!

Seating:

The car will carry two or three in the front seat, and two or three on the back, facing rearward.
