company in the mid-'90s. He stuck some
inappropriate content into SimCopter
that wasn't discovered until 80,000 copies
had shipped. Bichlbaum was fired, but
he'd stumbled on his calling.
"I hadn't really thought of it as a politi-
cal action',' Bichlbaum says, "and it kind
of took me by surprise when it became
an international story and I was on TV
everywhere and having to come up with
a reason why I'd done it. I thought, `This
is a really cool way to make a point.
Maybe this could be done on purpose.'
A friend introduced Bichlbaum to
Bonanno, one thing led to another and
they were impersonating corporations.
"There's a strong, ancient tradition of
clowns who can say things about power
that you can't communicate normally,'
Bichlbaum says.
"And [if] you make fun of a clown,
what does that get you? 'The clown is stu-
pid.' Well, yeah, the clown is deliberately
stupid — and making a point. The more
you focus on him, the clearer that point's
going to come across:' E
