The Passage of a Few People Through a Rather Brief Moment in Time
07.14.09
One or more persons during a certain period drop their usual motives for movement and action, their relations, their work and leisure activities, and let themselves be drawn by the attractions of the terrain and the encounters they find there.
It's a bike ride.
Started by user nathansnider and user theroyalacademy.
It meets at 8:30pm at California Donuts #21.
We ride at 9pm.
We'll endeavor to return before the last red line trains (around midnight).
On this bike ride, you might expect:
- full moon picnics
- inconvenient passageways
- "cover" versions of other people's rides, performed with amateurish enthusiasm
- disorientation
- reorientation
- pool halls
- bowling alleys
- dance parties
- karaoke
- geocaching
- oblique strategies
- Oulipian constraints
- traffic median tea parties
- rivers that no longer exist
- smell tourism
- Couchwick v2.0
This week:
"The Freeway Ride, Part Deux." The second half of our experiment in crossing the 101. This week we hit (nearly) every bridge and tunnel between Koreatown and the L.A. River.
Also: Bastille Day. Wear your beret.
Hypotheses and postulates.
P.S. Look what I found while searching for "berets and baguettes" (though not for bikes (it was actually pretty strange how many of the results for a Google image search for berets and baguettes included bikes)). These cats seem like fun. Next time you're in Paris, look 'em up....
