This weekend was my second The Creators Project event in
 |

As with anything music related, I arrived super early and was
 |
| Shut Up and Play the Hits - LCD Soundsystem |
I had gone to the show in NYC and was delighted to relive
that night and see glimpses of faces of my lovely New York
friends singing along in the crowd.
After the screening, I went to explore the art installations.
I love the art at The Creators Project event! They are
both thought provoking and whimsical. Fun....
Check it out.... Like Icarus I want to fly to the sun with my
might wings.

| “The Treachery of Sanctuary” by Chris Milk |
This might be my most favorite installation ever at The
each panel of his avine themed triptych projects and
absorbs the viewer into the scenario.

In one instance, you are the creator as your body breaks
into a million birds taking flight. I felt happy as my
gravity-bound body took to the sky, freed.

I stepped in front of the next panel and I was instantly
attacked by birds who pecked at me until I was nothing but a
stump. I won't lie I felt a little anxious because the scene
from the great Hitchcock film,"The Birds," scared me silly
when I was a child.

The last panel transformed me from fearful to feeling
powerful. When I lifted my arms, huge wings emerged in
swooping sound. I felt as if I had great armor and was
omnipotent. Pretty wicked stuff!
The next piece was called "OctoCloud' by SuperUber.

Viewers could use their mobile phones to “fling” virtual balls
onto the computer graphic sculpture. If the ball hit the
target, an animation would appear on the surface.
Alpha Lyrae piece made feel like I was at Fashion Week on a
spaceship to another galaxy.

Her special collection was inspired by astrological
constellations.

runway,the ambient music composed by Carsick Cars front
interpreted symbols of the universe as the images from the
projection mapping by UFO flashed upon them like the
paparazzi's cameras.
The last room I entered was Yang Yongliang’s beautiful video
installation The Day of Perpetual Night.

The piece reminiscent of classical Chinese art was
redesigned to reflect the modern Chinese experience where
nature is no longer viewed as source of inspiration but
instead the city as a landscape is the now the symbol of
innovation and beauty.

It actually reminded me of Hong Kong at night....
As always, I found some great light and did my own creation
project. I love both light and lines. I think I was taking
photos of the grid's reflection on my face for 30 minutes.
Lost in art and the light....

After my exploring and a little art project of my own, I
found my way into VIP and enjoyed the open bar.
I bumped into some friends and we tipsily danced along to
I jumped out somewhere in the evening for a pizza from the
cafe across the street to carb load for the later DANCE
PARTY BJ DJed by Former LCD SOUNDSYSTEM frontman
James Murphy.....
And boy, did I dance.....
