SeaCompression Eight: Metropolis Now
Saturday, November 7, 2009, 7p - 2a, 21+
Sand Point Hangar 30 (map)
We invite you to come celebrate with over 25,000 square feet of theme camps, interactive displays, fire spinners, DJs, live music and performers, dance, art cars, grilled cheese, suspension rigs, small blimps, neon rainbows, and any other damned thing we can think of. Imagine one city block of Burning Man being transported - streets and all - into a big empty box - and you've got an idea of SeaCompression.
Here are just a few of the attractions you can expect:
Sponsored by Ignition Northwest and produced by the Seattle arts community, SeaCompression is Seattle's annual Burning Man decompression party, in which celebrants of many subcultures come together to reminisce about the old year and begin counting the days until they return home to the playa. Whether you've been to Burning Man or not, SeaCompression is a vibrant, exciting celebration, packed with exotic entertainment and smart, funny, beautiful and cleverly dressed celebrants.
The proceeds from SeaCompression go to help fund large scale art projects, such as Umbrella Favella, Steve the Robot H.E.Ai.D., Groovik's Cube, and B/IAS - the Burien Interim Arts Space.
