SCHEDULE OF EVENTS
NightLife LIVE Performance & Art Installation in the
East Garden (Level 1)
7:45-8:30 pm, Live peformance by Saint Pepsi (sounds refreshing, right?), the freak-pop brainchild of 21-year-old musician Ryan DeRobertis.
8:45-9:45 pm, Catch the live SF debut of BADBADNOTGOOD and hear just why their jazz interpretations of hip hop tracks have landed them supporting spots for the likes of Frank Ocean and Tyler, the Creator of Odd Future.
Recognized for their continuous, one-take album recordings, they’ll soon release a collaboration with Wu-Tang’s Ghostface Killah that’s got both the jazz and hip hop worlds abuzz with anticipation.
Meet artists Julia Russotti, Serena Elston, and Tyson Ayers, the creative minds behind the NightLife LIVE installment of Make Big Art, a collaborative project that brings together the brightest hands in salvaged art, as they show off a prototype ship model from the famed Ghost Ship Party.
Make giant bubbles with SF’s own Bubble Guy, dance among the jellies with Billion Jelly Bloom, and check out a Nautical Shadow Puppet Show with Benjamin Perkins Burke.
Navigation Crafts & How-To’s in African Hall (Level 1)
6:00-10:00 pm, Get outside yourself with an immersive, virtual maze by Outerbody Labs then step inside the world of Moments in Algorithmic Places, or MAPs, with a preview of the Swissnex PLACEMAKERS exhibit.
Got a thing for maps? Check out antique charts and navigation equipment with Schein and Schein Maps, and make take-home coasters out of vintage maps with SCRAP. Or, if flower crowns are your thing, roll up your sleeves and get crafty with the pros from Workshop SF.
