Interactive Art, Dance & Philosophy in the Park | Berkeley

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Join MobileInTent in Berkeley’s lovely Live Oak Park for an evening where the audience is in motion, with roving performances, abstractions, and visual vignettes of dance, video, installations and philosophical thought, all in tents and among the trees 5-9:30 pm on Friday, October 11, 2013.

Audience members will be guided through a series of handmade tents to witness and confront fears of rising waters, future visioning and gentle erosion of collective dissociation from the natural world.

MobileInTent Schedule | October 11, 2013

5-7 pm: Reception with Empanadas by Sylvie Osbornean (these might be free, but bring a few bucks with you just in case – you can always donate them).
For this special one time event, The Berkeley Art Center will stay open late. Come for a reception in the park from 5-7 pm, eat an empanada and visit the New Media Combinations.

7-9:30 pm: Interactive Performance

Come back to MobileInTent at 7 pm for a metaphysical and free multi-disciplinary performance including:

• Animal Human Installations by Ann Schnake

This is the first in a series of exhibitions of MobileInTent that will focus on rising waters, future visioning and gentle erosion of collective dissociation from the natural world. Living inside three handmade pentagon tents, visitors will discover installation, video projections and dance performances. Expect small services from clock resetting to building poetic survival kits– anything to encourage curiosity mixed with vital discourse.
