The Passage of a Few People Through a Rather Brief Moment in Time #42 - Angels Dancing on the Head of a Pin

04.14.10

&iwlocOne 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 every Wednesday 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
- amateurish enthusiasm
- disorientation
- reorientation
- pool halls
- bowling alleys
- karaoke
- geocaching
- oblique strategies
- Oulipian constraints
- traffic median tea parties
- rivers that no longer exist
- smell tourism
- Couchwick v2.0

Furthermore:
- a medium pace (probably not for beginners; certainly not a hustle)
- under 25 miles this week
- Q: Hills? A: Yes
- few stops, short stops
- but we're not in a rush; we don't need to run every light
- victory donuts!

Please visit our museum of movements.

This week:

Angels Dancing on the Head of a Pin


In 1990, USGS geographer Allan Edwards got a large map of Los Angeles and
pasted it to a piece of lightweight foam core board roughly the size of a double bed.
Then he cut around the city's oddly shaped perimeter, from San Pedro to Sylmar.
Then he carved out holes to eliminate the island cities of Beverly Hills, West
Hollywood and San Fernando, as well as unincorporated areas such as Universal City.
Then, very carefully, Edwards balanced the City of Angels on the head of a pin.

Voila! The center of Los Angeles.

Now, we wouldn't blame you for thinking that this all sounds terribly unscientific.
Indeed, it kind of seems like the one of those "lies" that pisses ICP off. But
there is a plaque and everything, and it is not like a 70-year-old geographer and
his wife can just install a plaque in a park in the middle of the night without anybody
noticing, right? It must be real.
