GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS (UK)
2004


What else can I say? I'm the only person in the world to ever do this and it is my signature contribution to the extremely wild world of body altering performance art. Originality will always get you noticed.

Guinness awarded me the title of "largest forhead inflation" and I was included in the 20007 Guinnes World Records book. Crazy shit.

COMPLETE BODY MODIFICATION MANUAL (JAPAN)
2004


It is always a pleasure to work with Ryoichi Maeda (Japan's coolest editor), but I have to say that this was the most amazing project I have had the honor of collaborating with him.

UVATIARRU - THE MOVIE
(unreleased)

When my friend Shannon Larratt (mastermind behind bmezine.com and the Modcon conferences) told me that he was filming a movie and wanted me to do my classic forehead trick for it, I told myself that I would have to out-do all my prior performances. Ryoichi was there too, covering the event for Burst, so I definitely had to do more than I had ever done before...



HANS NELEMAN'S NEW PHOTO BOOK
"Body Transformed" (in progress)

 

I initially hooked up with Hans through my friend Lukas Zpira back in 2002. Hans is an amazing photographer from New York and it was an honor to work with and pose for a photographer of his calibre.

 

 

BURST MAGAZINE (JAPAN)
March 2004

 

Ryoichi Maeda flew out to Toronto and met up with me back in December of 2003 when I went to film my ultra saline injection for Shannon's Uvatiarru movie. This issue of Burst featured his report.

 

 

 

MODCON BOOK - JAPANESE EDITION
2004

 

Ultra rare and really cool Japanese edition of the classic Modcon book. Slightly different layout and format, but essentially the same book except in Japanese.

 

 

MONTREAL MIRROR - LOCAL PERSONALITY PROFILE
2004

 

Amusing profile in one of the local weekly papers.

 

 

THE LEARNING CHANNEL - SKIN SCULPTORS
2002

 

This really ended up being a decent documentary, I have to congratulate the producers for having the balls to talk about deliberate amputation and underground body modification the way they did, they definitely did it with respect and intelligence.

 

THE RICKI LAKE SHOW
2002

 

A week after coming back from LA where I filmed my segment for Ripley's Believe It Or Not (see below), I got a call from one of Ripley's producers telling me that the Ricki Lake show was doing a special on Ripley's and they wanted me as one of their guests...

 

RIPLEY'S BELIEVE IT OR NOT
2002

 

I have to say that this was a really cool gig, and that Mark (the main producer who I dealt with) did an amazing job of taking care of me. LA was a blast and I met some really amazing people and had some great times.

 

THE MODCON BOOK
2002

 

What can I say... you either know what this book is all about or you don't. The most complete documentary on the underground heavy body modification scene. Being chosen as the cover model is probably one of the biggest compliments I've received in my career thus far.

 

GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS
2003

 

I once held an official Guinness World Record and it was a very successful publicity stunt that has served its purpose well...

 

BURST MAGAZINE (JAPAN)
January 2001

 

Really cool interview and flattering profile from the summer of 2000 that Ryoichi came to Montreal to visit me.

 

BME TRADING CARD
2002

 

Yes, there is a Jerome trading card out there... It's very rare and I hear that it's worth millions these days.

 

MUMMIFIED JESUS / EXPLODING COCK SHOW
1999

 

Out of all the shows that I did, this was the one that had the biggest audience. This was an outside gig part of the Circo de Bakuza demented circus, one of the outdoor events of the legendary Montreal Just for Laughs festival.

 

ICI - BODY MODIFICATION PROFILE
1999

 

One of my first local media profiles, back when you could still see all the dots on my legs...
