We were asked to make a "spot" of sorts for use on talk shows and general publicity. However, this will most likely just be used on facebook. Feel free to share. (And block off St. Patrick's Day...)
Wow, just five days ago I asked if anyone wanted to join me in a tribute to David Bowie and here we are with a video that reaches from San Francisco to New York to Vietnam and Spain. THANK YOU ALL! Click on the link below to see/hear the final result.
Come on, flak monkeys. Call one of us if you don't know the location.
Thanks to everyone for coming out and dancing/gaming/sangin' - with only a few days notice, we can still put on a hoppin' party!
"Let's do the Timewarp again!"
Dust off your ghost boxes and just show up. For Noddy's birthday, try to knock him off of Rainbow Road. Call one of us if you can't figure out the location.
Thanks to everyone who responded so quickly. The location had to be determined on the fly, and you all made it. Love wins! DOMA IS FUCKING GONE!

DORK, live music by H.P. Mendoza. Sing. Dance. Play. Shutdown is sunrise. Call one of us for the location.
The crowd participation was unexpectedly moving. So much love in the audience and on stage. Excuse the audio, it was taken from various phones throughout the night. It was amazing to hear the audience singing along with the song. And seeing as how so many of our friends and family were there, there was audience harmony, too! From where we stood, seeing the people hanging out the windows and off the balconies to watch us as the fog coasted past the stars was super magical. Thanks to everyone who showed up. :)

Don't remember where we said we'd be hosting Mission Arcade? Call one of us!
Could Mission Arcade infiltrate different spaces around San Francisco? Would we get caught? (Would it be so bad?)
Testing out projection mapping of faces on actual faces. #IDEO
Daylight Savings afterparty with director and the cast. (And we got to meet Yea Ming!) Writer/Director Dave Boyle sure can croon.
Folks from the Center for Asian American Media came to game and booze. Stephane Gauger (Owl and the Sparrow) created a pyramid of lumpia. Tanuj Chopra (Punching at the Sun) showed up with a Darth Maul figurine. Rich Wong (Colma: The Musical) and J.P. Chan (A Picture of You) discussed filmmaking and not quitting your day job. And Nguyen Tran narrowly escaped being beat down at Dance Dance Revolution by H.P.!
