In the spirit of the revolutionary interactive art of Burning Man and Black Rock Arts Foundation, we invite YOU to come out to celebrate and pARTicipate in the Mobule experience! Get involved with this great Black Rock Arts Foundation grantee project and help make it happen! It will be in New York, Black Rock City, San Francisco and Los Angeles, SOON. You know you want to, so make it happen!
Mobule is a kinetic, multi-media, mobile, interactive street art performance that connects people from different cities. Check out theses videos about Mobule on the project’s website: http://www.mobule.org/
The artist, Ludale, needs 3 partners for each performance. It’s really easy to help! All you do is:
- Invite people to participate in an interactive game (invite them to try on the ‘space helmet’ and control the Mobule. Who doesn’t want to wear a space helmet?!?) - Interview people - Help video the interviews - Help pack up the Mobule after the show
Don’t one of those roles sound just like something you could do?
Here are the dates the Mobule needs help. All performances are 9:00 pm – 11:00 pm:
Monday, August 15th Tuesday August 16th Brooklyn Bridge park – New York.
Friday, August 19th Pier 14, Near the Raygun Gothic Rocketship, by the Ferry building – San Francisco.
Saturday 20th, August 20th Mission Delores Park – San Francisco.
August, 29th – September 4th Center Camp – Black Rock City.
Friday, September 9th and Saturday 10th Santa Monica Pier – Los Angeles.
Artist Ludale and the Mobule also need places to stay during their travels, and need a ride to and from Burning Man any day between 8/23 and 8/28!

One of the Black Rock Arts Foundation‘s 2009 Grantees, Cardboardia in Moscow, put on a Haute Couture Fashion Show recently and it is delightful. It put a big smile on my face!
Bliss danced with her friends, and photographer Sidney Erthal on the 4th of July and we hope your holiday was just as beautiful. Sidney Erthal’s 2010 Burning Man photos.
A treat showed up in our email box last week from Roy Two Thousand, who I met at the Bliss Dance Opening Ceremony on Treasure Island. He sent a time lapse video of the opening, with his original music.
And as a special treat, Roy Two Thousand also sent along a time lapse of Burning Man 2010, just as we are gearing up to head to the Playa next month. Enjoy!
Fire and music create a gathering for hundreds of participants each Tuesday and Wednesday night in July as part of Artown. Over 1,000 people gathered at the corner of Sierra Street and Island Ave for the opening of the temporary interactive art installation and performance venue. Hundreds of adults and children have enjoyed the unique experience of controlling a pulsing tower of flame effects while DJ’s spin dance music for the performers and public alike. Read more »
