Polynesian Pop in the Space Age Credits

The Space Age ran parallel to the Modern Primitivism of Tiki Culture. While Program & Website technology propelled modern man to the moon, the common man celebrated Aaron Burke @ tidbit studio isolated islander cultures that were equally unattainable. Tiki Oasis Producers Whether it was a World's Fair or Disneyland's Tomorrowland (1955), It seemed Otto & Baby Doe von Stroheim that the interest in other worlds in outer space was just as intriguing as man's curiosity for primitive cultures. All World's Fairs had "ethnic" exhibits displaying exotic and ancient traditions1 alongside the most modern Sponsorship, Advertising, Vending aspects of technology. Similarly, with a short walk across Disnelyland's Main Christi Crowe @ FLAG Marketing Street, tourists travelled from the advanced technologies of Tomorrowland to the wilds of Adventureland's Tiki Room and Jungle Cruise. In 1947 the world Publicity listened and read about the Kon Tiki raft sailing across the South Pacific Lee Joseph @ Reverberations toward the most remote island on earth - Easter Island. Ten years later the Media Western world watched as Russia's Sputnik sailed into outer space to begin The Space Race. Soon thereafter Apollo jettisoned the first men to the moon. Illustrations The Telstar satellite (1962) inspired Joe Meek to pen the #1 Surf instrumental Derek Yaniger tune of the same name using cutting edge recording techniques (the single was backed by B Side "Jungle Fever").

From late 19th century Jules Verne Sci-Fi voyages to the perfect future of The Jetsons (and their primitive counterparts The Flintstones); From Fritz Lang's Futurist inspired Metropolis (1927) to The Star Trek Enterprise's search for the final frontier, man's love of Modernism and Primitivism have run parallel in space (Mars and the Moon) as it has on earth (the remote islands of The Polynesian Triangle).

Captain James Cook desired to go "farther than any other man has been before". He discovered many remote islands as well as sailing to Antarctica and being the first to chart parts of Alaska, the final frontier of the Age of Discovery. Ironically we ended up putting a man on the moon decades before we discovered the last tribes in the mountains of Papua New Guinea2. Just as Captain Cook's Endeavor sailed uncharted seas, Star Trek Captain James T. Kirk's Enterprise took voyages into outer space to discover "strange new worlds, uncharted civilizations, and exotic people" and "boldly go where no man has been before!"

Some years ago a young collective of extraterrestrials arrived on this planet and The Chocolate Watchband happened upon a small college town in Alabama.

Pacific Ocean Park: The Rise and Fall of Los Angeles' Space-Age Nautical Pleasure Pier with Domenic Priore

Pacific Ocean Park, P.O.P., was a "mysteries of the deep" theme park on a pier at L.A.'s Venice beach during 1958 – 1967. Not only did it include a futuristic pavilion with a unique "Flight To Mars" ride, but 1/3 of the pier was an entire Tiki section including an insane Tiki ride at the end of the pier called Mys- tery Island...everything from Twilight Zone to The Mod Squad shot episodes at POP. Domenic Priore reveals how Space Age and Tiki truly came together at POP where Syd Barrett's version of The Pink Floyd played, as did Dick Dale & his Del-Tones, The Beach Boys, The Doors, James Brown, and others.

Patrick G. Robinson (Denver)

Crawling out of his troglodyte island cave for the flotsam and jetsam of tiki, sun, & music, Patrick is back for another year that is Tiki Oasis. Always the most choice of music selections culled from exotic locals on ancient circular tablets. We shall follow the setting sun and ebb of the tides as Patrick provides perfect aural elixirs against the fast paced world. Well, and maybe a bit of swank go-go to excite other primitive urges.
