Welcome to the Artistic Biker's Webspace!

The Artistic Biker is me, Jonathan "Blade" Manning.
A treasure troll of a man, with hobbit feet and a sharp pointy head. You may see me traveling up and down the highways of Oklahoma looking for the next place to sketch, paint, sing, dance, write, photograph or simply meditate. I have begun a journey that once set upon, there is no turning back. You can share in my blunt force journey through the art world on my weekly U-stream broadcast
The Artistic Biker Live!

    It's a concept that has been discussed since the 50s. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Project_Orion_%28nuclear_propulsion%29

    In the 80s, Pournelle and Niven wrote the SF book "Footfall" which used the idea as a major plotpoint. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Footfall
