I know this! It's a picture of a birdhouse that Brian Eno's daughter made for him in shop class!

I have absolutely no idea. Which is very minimal of me.

I am gonna be rash and vote almost 2 weeks early.
Voting for Mongoose. There is one role with a power, and she seriously seems most invested in this game. So i am guessing she has the power.
Could be wrong.

Since you guys were patient with me today, here is a reward. A great Nurse With Wound album made entirely from spontaneous sounds generated by a bunch of effects pedals string together with no original input. No one was sure why they were making sounds, but they were worth manipulating and recording.
(my copy of this album is signed by the creator. Squee!)

Well, my experience of you is that you are always superactive in all games, not just those that Llama hosts. So ...I am OK with my vote

It's a minimalist portrait of Brian Eno's favourite slightly goth clown fish, Brian Nemo.

Although, this has to be minimalist mirror reflection of Brian Eno's driver, Brian Limo.

It's a minimalist altar piece commissioned by Brian Eno's shady catholic priest friend, Brian Limbo.
Llama man, how much longer will this last? It's not that I'm not having fun or anything, butt I'm pretty much out of crappy puns, you see. Even this one is way off. Well, I kinda have one more butt it might be in poor taste.

It's a Bosch painting in disguise, that Brian Eno has in the kitchen right above his IKEA table he bought from Berlin a while back.

Yeah, not a ton going on in this game if we aren't gonna play the mini-games. If I'm always like this in games, I'm not sure how that makes me suspicious. Just predictable.

Stay tuned for more exciting contests and informative posts.
In the meantime, please enjoy this lovely song. It's not exactly minimalist, but it is one of the happiest ones I know.

Although I agree entirely with you and pity your position if you are a civvie, did the wording of this particular response strike anyone else as weird or is it just me?
Not jumping to any conclusions whatsoever, but curious who responds to this and what they have to say.

I was just saying that doing the same things I always do in every games doesn't seem to be cause for alarm. Actually, I'm not really sure what part you found weird - if you can be a little more specific, I'll be happy to elaborate.
linki - Vomps and I have a little side project going on...if you know what I mean.

No, I know what you were saying. I guess it just kinda sounded to me like you were making up excuses for not being baddie and it sort of read as if you were saying it, yet while not innocent. IDK. Wouldn't vote for you based on that at all, just how it read to me initially.
Lol, I don't. How can you when none of the roles have anything going on?

It's a creative project that isn't mafia-related actually. It's fake personas we created on Tumblr and we are cultivating a friendship between these two strangers.

I have a feeling it might be a long project unless we decide to give up on it.

Since the image contest is over, I'm going to start periodically posting links to interesting minimalist art projects or consumer products.
Let's start with a science experiment. The Pitch Drop Experiment was begun in 1927 as a way to demonstrate that pitch is actually a liquid with a very high viscosity. Some pitch was placed in a glass funnel and allowed to settle. Nine years later, the first drop fell from the base of the funnel. To date, eight drops have fallen and it has been 13 years since the last one. The ninth is expected soon. No one has ever witnessed a drop falling in real time, but now the experiment is being webcast 24 hours a day, so you can watch it and hope to be the first person to see a drop.
As someone who put a straw through circular ice and watch it melt, I am really into this performance art you have linked us to today.

I spent the first 2 mins of that video thinking it would be a parody.
I did not get you a clock, but I accidentally bought you two birthday cards, 'cause I forgot about the first one. Two bday cards is not very minimalist, but there's no way I can re-purpose them for anyone else.
It's nice outside today. We have our doors and windows open.

I think it's a bit early to even have suspicions. Not much has happened... Not discouraging sleuthing, but we've got plenty of time to gather information before forming opinions.
You and me both!
