The Passage of a Few People Through a Rather Brief Moment in Time #94 - Inconvenient Transdimensional Portals

04.20.11

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 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:
- usually 20-30 miles
- usually some hills
- a medium pace (maybe not for beginners; certainly not a hustle)
- few stops, short stops
- but we're not in a rush; we don't need to run every light
- victory donuts!

This week:

Inconvenient Transdimensional Portals


It is probably well-known by now that we seek out the overlooked, the out of
the way, the nearly invisible, and the slightly insane (but not, you know,
totally insane) routes through our city. The goal is both to explore
new places and also to defamiliarize the old. Thus, by exploiting the infrastructural
excesses of the urban environment, we attempt to cast new light on the everyday.

But beyond the routes merely within the city there are also the routes out of it.
We have explored many of them, venturing afield, into the surrounding burgs
and burbs. This week we head for perhaps the grandaddy of them all, not only
a route into another city but a route into an ENTIRELY DIFFERENT DIMENSION.
Yes, following up on our paranoid apprenticeship a couple of weeks back, tonight
we travel up to the transdimensional portal that our buddies Jack and Lafayette
Ronald built (or, more precisely, that they summoned forth).

And what light might this portal shed? Well, it was intended to bring forth the
moonchild that would usher in a new age, so you've got to figure it will at least be
good for a group photo or two, if not a total revolution of our minds and spirits.
But you never know. We might just have that spirit revolution thing too, at least
a few of us.

Recommended magickal apparati: power crystals, tin foil hats, wands, cloaks --
as well as gears and/or legs, since the road ahead is long and "bumpy."
