Join us for an opening celebration\, showcasing accessible metaverse prototypes in VR\, historic artworks exploring concepts at the core of the decentralized web movement\, and video presentations of cultural communications projects. \nRepresenting the CripTech Incubator\, C/Change Program\, and Open Source Decentralized Web Curriculum\, this exhibit offers multiple access points to introduce audiences to the innovative ideas\, methods\, and outputs centering our approach to Plural Prototyping. \nThis opening event will feature two captivating performances that expand upon the themes of access\, inclusion\, and communication. \nDead Name – Sammie Veeler \nDead Name is an ongoing multimedia performance project started in October 2022 through a commission by Octobre Numerique Faire Monde and the Tezos Foundation. Each performance in this series is unique\, published as an essay\, documented with audio\, and archived in a persistent network of virtual worlds on New Art City. Dead Name conducts poetic performances of expertise and ignorance\, mapping the temporal disjunction of gender transition onto the production of collective histories online. \nAssembling Intimacy – Nat Decker with Jules Chimes Gårder \nAssembling Intimacy is a multimedia performance by Nat Decker. and Jules Chimes Garder – reenacts the repetitive assembly and disassembly of Nat’s mobility scooter. By compressing and mirroring the muscle memory of everyday actions\, they demonstrate how seemingly simple routines of care can emerge as significant forms of intimacy. Nat develops their sensorial relationship to touch as someone who’s embodiment expands to the plastic and metal mobility objects frequently maneuvered by the hands of others. Extracorporeal touch is felt\, and distinctly so when generating what Mia Mingus describes as ‘Access Intimacy\,’ or the closeness which results from access needs being met and understood / a certain feeling of safety and ease with another within an ableist paradigm. \nThis event will be accessible to guests in line with our overall accessibility guidelines for Gray Area Festival. Our performances will be live-captioned\, but there will be no ASL interpreter on site. Access doulas will be on site to facilitate fantastic experiences for all attendees. \nVisit our FAQ page to read all of our access considerations. If you have further questions\, access requests\, or concerns\, please write to festival@grayarea.org.

SUMMARY:Manny’s: Candlelight Vigil for the Israelis + Palestinians Who've Died in this War

With musical direction by Jaime Lozano and a book by C. Julian Jiménez\, LatinXoxo is conceived by Migguel Anggelo and directed by Adrian Alexander Alea.\nCreative team \nConceived by Migguel Anggelo\nBook:  C.

SUMMARY:ODC Theater: Kinetech Arts: AURUM
DESCRIPTION:San Francisco has its roots in the gold rush: in the mid-19th century\, its population grew from a few hundred to tens of thousands\, attracting immigrants worldwide. Kinetech Arts’s multi-media project entitled Aurum (gold in Latin) portrays a modern-day “gold rush” in San Francisco\, with the world’s tech capital viewed through the events of 1849. Humanity is in a disruptive transition era analogous to that time of proliferation\, as developments in AI are growing exponentially. By reflecting on the gold rush\, when greed fueled ecological and human tolls\, especially on the indigenous population and exploited workers\, this project reflects on our place within a delicate ecosystem. This ecosystem now includes the intimate relationships between humans and the digital world.

SUMMARY:Brava Theater: Swimming With Lesbians
DESCRIPTION:Brava Presents\nSwimming With Lesbians \nOctober  6 – 22\, 2023\nFri & Sat at 7:30pm\nSun at 5:00pm \nPREVIEW on Friday\, October 6 \nBrava proudly presents the West Coast Premiere of Marga Gomez’s fourteenth one person show\, Swimming With Lesbians. This full steam farce takes place aboard “The Celesbian\,” regarded as the most notorious cruise ship on the high seas. Throughout the performance Marga morphs into a boatload of hilarious queer characters including: Isabelle a disgraced Lacrosse player yearning for her first Lesbian affair\, Captain Debbie who is always ready to go down in the ship\, and the outwardly jovial but secretly meek bingo caller Pru Perez. Things veer off course when Captain Debbie orders Pru to conduct pool games on the Lezzo Deck. How these intrepid Lesbians navigate through danger\, lust and endless buffets is a seafaring tale that will never be told in Florida. Marga has been subliminally developing Swimming With Lesbians since the 1990’s when she worked as a cruise ship entertainer.  \nWritten and Performed by Marga Gomez\nCreative Team: Edris Cooper-Anifowoshe (Black To The Future) Jackie Marchand (Power Rangers) Sarah Toby Moore (Atomic Comic) Monica Palacios (San Francisco Mi Amor) and David Schweizer (Latin Standards.)\nPhotos: Jim McCambridge\nGraphic Design: David Hawkins \nThe show runs 65 minutes with no intermission and is recommended for mature audiences. Full bar will be open for 21 and over.

SUMMARY:Public Works: AYLI 13-Year Anniversary w/ Ben UFO\, Eris Drew\, DJ Haram + More
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, October 14th\, 9:30pm – 3:30am \nFull Space / 21+ / Limited Capacity \nIn addition to online pre-sales\, tickets will be available at the door night of. \nAs You Like It (AYLI) and Public Works invites to celebrate 13-years of community rooted in a shared taste in quality music\, late nights and artistic self-expression. The Bay Area’s vast contributions to dance music culture run deep underground—a family tree rooted in psychedelic rave\, radical funk\, and electronic invention\, steeped in global influences. Beginning in 2010\, AYLI extended this sparkling legacy with a decade of parties dedicated to quality\, intimacy\, and an intensely local glow. \nTimelessness—reflected in AYLI’s beloved influences from Detroit and Chicago to NYC\, Paris\, London\, Tokyo\, and Berlin—as well as diversity\, evidenced by each party’s distinctive lineup\, are the crew’s watchwords\, deployed across an ever-changing techno landscape. Outdoor picnics in Golden Gate Park\, undergrounds in Oakland\, ambitious all-night affairs that brought together some of the most excitingly varied lineups of DJs and performers in Bay Area memory—these were what grew AYLI’s stature as a party powerhouse. \nOver the course of a very busy first 10 years\, AYLI debuted dozens of international and domestic touring artists—Nicolas Jaar\, Ben Klock\, Maya Jane Coles\, Peggy Gou\, and Robert Hood\, among them—while always giving an equal platform to the incredible local talent on offer\, a sophisticated balance that showcased Bay Area excellence and nurtured budding artists’ careers. An As You Like It podcast\, launched in 2011\, connected that local ethos to the global community\, featuring scores of dance music legends while broadening the Bay Area’s influence\, and introducing core AYLI players to the world. \nBut the unity of close family in a fractious time was what grounded AYLI’s essential presence on the scene. Weathering increased anti-nightlife prejudice from the authorities\, a crass tech invasion that out-priced and exiled many local artists\, and the tragic loss of several members and associates in the Ghost Ship Fire\, the AYLI crew and its devoted followers has continued to build a resilient underground movement together. \nIn the shadow of the current pandemic\, AYLI reached out to the world via its collaboration with Fault Radio\, As You Like It Coast-to-Coast\, a virtual party series\, AYLI Radio on Sutrofm.net\, and the launch of the AYLI Ground Level podcast series\, energizing and connecting the community further. \nAYLI Links: \nwww.ayli-sf.com \nwww.ayli.bandcamp.com \nwww.twitter.com/aylisf \nwww.instagram.com/aylisf \nwww.soundcloud.com/as-you-like-it \nwww.discogs.com/label/1940068-As-You-Like-It-Recordings \nLINEUP: \nMain Room \nBen UFO \nEris Drew \nOne A \nLoft hosted by Sutrofm \nDJ Haram \nMichael Claus Live \nOso Feo B2B Banal \nInfinite Jess \n━━━━━━━━━▲━━━━━━━━━ \nWhen you purchase tickets to this event you’ll automatically be signed up for LOCAL 161\, Public Works’ SMS community where you’ll get special invites + guestlist + other perks as a thank you for your support. You’ll receive about 4 messages per month\, message and data rates may apply\, and you can text STOP to cancel at any time.
