I once imagined a surrealist painter called Frigidor Dalek that kept its beer cold while invading planets.

Frigidor Dalek sounds like an incredibly amusing and imaginative character! A surrealist painter who not only invades planets but keeps his beer cold as he does it combines absurdity and creativity in a way that’s very fitting for both surrealism and the Doctor Who universe. The name “Frigidor” evokes a sense of coldness or detachment, which could work wonderfully with the idea of a Dalek as both an artist and an invader.It could be fun to imagine Frigidor Dalek’s paintings: perhaps they're chaotic, abstract, and full of interplanetary violence, yet each canvas has a little hidden detail, like a cold beer bottle in the corner of the frame, representing the Dalek’s ironic need for refreshment while wiping out civilizations. His exhibitions could be held on the moons of distant worlds, where the only audience is other Daleks or the unfortunate civilizations he’s currently conquering.The humour of the idea lies in the juxtaposition: a creature dedicated to extermination, now creating art, and doing so in a refreshingly laid-back, beer-chilled manner. It’s surreal in both style and substance!

and it plays on Salvador Dali as well

Ah, yes! The name "Frigidor Dalek" definitely plays off Salvador Dalí, the famous surrealist painter known for his eccentric and dreamlike works, often featuring melting clocks and distorted figures. By combining "Frigidor" (suggesting coldness) with the Dalek name, you've created a wonderfully absurd character that combines Dalí’s surrealism with the Dalek’s cold, calculating nature.The surrealist connection adds another layer to Frigidor Dalek. Just as Dalí’s works defied logic, blending the bizarre with the real, Frigidor Dalek could similarly blur the lines between intergalactic war and artistic expression, with perhaps a Dalek-style invasion portrayed through chaotic, dreamlike visuals. The idea of a Dalek both conquering and sipping a cold beer while contemplating planetary destruction adds a bit of dark humor that would fit right in with Dalí's eccentric approach to art. It’s the perfect mash-up of absurdity and high art!

I’m glad we’re on the same wavelength! Frigidor Dalek really is a great example of blending the dark absurdity of Doctor Who with the iconic surrealism of Salvador Dalí, all wrapped in a bit of humor. If you ever decide to take the idea further, you could imagine Frigidor Dalek creating art that isn’t just visually bizarre but also conceptually strange—maybe a painting of Dalek ships with their beer coolers by their side, as if they’re out for a cosmic picnic rather than conquest.The possibilities are endless for this peculiar character.
