This Walk Among the Tombstones Weekend, Sat 12/6 and Sun 12/7 2014

Nineteen days to Christmas, and I wish it was already over. Bah, Humbug. 2014 too. Glad I didn't go to Art Blah-sel. It seems less relevant every year.

"The Sublime Operator and the Science of Dropped Calls"

>>December 6 will be the party for the Three Year Ventureversary - Champagne is encouraged, partying is
mandatory<<

7pm - $5

Largely taking inspiration from cognitive processes, Blasko's work frequently maps out these internal functions by referencing complex systems in the external world such as architectural drawings, blueprints, floor plans, technical illustrations, and various types of mapping. His artwork is analytically developed, yet retains a playful character as skillfully conceived components are often blended with found objects.

In addition to creating an installation piece in The Venture
Compound, Blasko will be performing with Sean Hamilton (Director of the Hyperbolic Chamber Music series), Kevin von Kampen (percussion) and Jacqui Dugal (dance).

"My Love MHz lives in New York City and creates understated electronic music that is as equally influenced by modern digital culture as it is by Krautrock and Berlin-school electronic artists of the 70's. It is founded on the idea that even in the precise, cold, calculative world of computer music, tribal rhythms and emotions are undeniably emergent."

Calling all poets, musicians, storytellers, comedians - whatever your talent come on out and show us what you got at Sunday Nite Open Mic. Always held the first Sunday each month. Duckweed is located in the heart of downtown Tampa and all meters are FREE on Sundays.

What happened to the musicians last month? Was it too cold? We poets must be a heartier group cause we came out in force, the musicians, not so much. I promise our sound guy Moe St. Evergreen can make anyone sound awesome. Check us out.
