Yayo? Kusama: Self-Obliteration 1967

SASSAS: Welcome Inn Time Machine

Went to this event last weekend at a motel (oh wait, I mean “Inn”) near my house for Pacific Standard Time. This is a photo from one of the many interactive installations in various rooms at the motel- this installation was a recreation of the LAFMS performance Pyramid Headphones (1976).

Happy New Year!

I hope you ushered in 2012 in style.  I made a little last minute janky fluorescent paper crown for  myself, and was glad I did!  There’s nothing like a silly accessory to make you feel more in the spirit of the holiday.
