I’m not gonna lie, car shows are kind of my thing. It’s sometimes said that cars are not capable of being considered art and it is true that some vehicles are entirely utilitarian; the word vehicle itself would even suggest that. However, I feel that the aesthetics of vehicles sometimes transcend the boundaries of design for the sake of marketing, and this usually happens when it falls into the hands of the ambitious general public. When we have this happen, the car show is usually the place to see it.

2012 Texas Renaissance Festival
I recall a journalist describing Renaissance Festivals as Disneylands with more boobs and booze. He probably put it more delicately than I did, but I’m sure we’re not in disagreement. Prior to visiting RenFest this weekend, I imagined it as a massive field of live action role players, culturally and historically accurate to the point that it would hurt. I was so glad to have instead found the aforementioned amusement park of beer stands and ill fitting corsets.
