A one hour documentary on the Artist General is being directed by Martin Yernanzian.
This will be the debut DVD venture of Pyrotechnia Productions.
At long last America has a designated champion of the National Imagination.
The Artist General (a cabinet-level self-appointment) will be issuing potentially countless warnings as new hazards to creative life & community present themselves.

Assisting him in the perpetration of Poetic Justice will be a hand-picked cadre of spiritual warriors known as the NMCP (New Millennial Culture Posse). Accepting volunteers now.
