'cause the mold is just made of plaster and is being chipped into millions of pieces as I get it away from the head. But if we got molding stuff and made another mold of it, then we could do that. But it'd take kind of a lot. It's a life-size head.
haha! it's totally right in the picture that the mold is being broken away. i'm retarded.
you know, if you had made that mold with a combination of smooth-on's brush-on silicones and their mother-mold plastics you could cast 100's of big heads before the mold would even _begin_ to deteriorate!
*product number here* has a pot life of about 4 minutes, and you can't expose it to moisture, so a good bet might be a silicon *product number with some letters here*, as that's a good all purpose one- but you need a special spray, you know, something like *product number here* would work well. And it'd have a durometer of 30 and a viscosity of eight million viscoparticles. That's about right, right? NIBBETS! Not the non-slarking narkocompfs- we'd defintiely need the slarking ones for that, and the *product number* mold release agent. We'd definitely need that, too, right?

no - a walkie-talkie with a speaker in the mouth and then at burningman we could stand far away with binoculars and give shit to people who walk by!
