Aqua Teen Art 'Terrorist' Describes His Ordeal

destinyland writes "Boston police arrested artist 'Zebbler' for installing L.E.D. devices that promoted Aqua Teen Hunger Force (after police mistook them for bombs). He's finally shared the real behind-the-scenes story about his arrest and release. He describes his interrogation ('My interrogator gave me nothing but carrots to eat') and remembers a surreal exchange with a police officer. ('My daughter is a huge fan of you ... So, did you really mean to blow up Boston?') Now his latest project is a cool high-definition/surround sound installation for an event called RIP.MIX.BURN.BAM.PFA."

    Not sure if you were joking, but in the UK two tapes are recorded and you are given the opportunity to take one at random, thus avoiding this problem.

    God bless you, officer. I wish more police officers understood this as well as you do.
