Mr. a-go-go
also known as Spz or mr. a-go-go. I make tin can istruments, spazimal stuffed toys, automata gizmos, and cartoons too. I used to work for an encyclopedic art museum where I moved art all day. Now after making the Big Trip with mrs. a-go-go and getting out of Los Angeles I am working my way back to having time for all these idiot projects.
