11.09.09Opera-Matic benefit tonight at Danny’s
Opera-Matic is having a benefit tonight (I recently posted a photo of one of their incredible works, the Momentum Mori Project). More details from this event’s Facebook page:
This month’s Peace Party at Danny’s Tavern will benefit Opera-Matic! With DJ’s: Josh, Jocelyn, Jeff and JNaomi.
Opera-Matic brings new musical-theatrical works to public spaces, employing sustainable design and re-use. By combining a traditional practice with fresh expression and innovative technology, Opera-Matic seeks to transform common spaces into accessible venues for a new sustainable art form, encouraging audiences to meet in informal spaces and share a musical experience.
Opera-Matic is committed to raising awareness of local cultures and respecting the values and priorities of communities through collaboration with community groups, schools and associations.
This event will help raise funds for parades and performances in 2010.
Monday, November 9th, 2009. 10PM at Danny’s Tavern, 1951 W. Dickens Chicago IL

11.03.09Momentum Mori Project
On Halloween I photographed and filmed the Momentum Mori Project’s procession along North Avenue (as part of the Haunted Paseo Boricua parade), which concluded at Humboldt Park where I shot the above picture. Here’s Mark Messing, one of the talented folks behind the project, describing it:
It’s a memorial to the cyclists who have been killed around the city. Inspired by the “Ghost Bikes”, bikes painted white at locations where cyclists have been killed, our bike procession will feature a Crossing Guard Warrior Goddess on chariot led by Ghost Horses, flanked by Ghost Riders riding white bikes and dressed in all white.
Stunning.
