SUMMARY:ATA: Other Cinema: BAD PUPPETS
DESCRIPTION:CHILD’s ORIGIN OF THE SPECIES + KAVANAGH’s WE’VE BEEN WARNED \nThis first of two Puppet Shows—this one foregrounding the Scary—sees the SF premiere of Abigail Child‘s Origin of the Species\, her masterful hour-plus exploration of both new tech/engineering developments and of radically new understandings of the relations between humans and machines…that are apparently our equals\, and soon to be our superiors. Abby‘s cinematic genius is realized in exquisite doc coverage—especially of the new Japanese initiatives. Opening the evening is a much-needed push-back from OC ally Mike Kavanagh\, A Short History of Robots and AI in Cinema\, that presses the case for regulatory action to keep the genie back in the bottle. This 40-minute chronology includes scores of riveting clips\, from Metropolis to Colossus: The Forbin Project\, and beyond\, teasing out the critical distinctions between “generative” and “sentient”. Enhancing the two anchors are Keith Sanborn on Jeremy Bentham\, Peter Freund on HAL 9000\, Mark Shephard‘s Sentient City\, and David Cox‘ “real-world” noggin’-choppin’ heli-drone! $13

SUMMARY:Verdi Club: SF Salon Music - Heels
DESCRIPTION:$65 – 120 \nThey say that to know a person’s journey\, you need to walk a mile in their shoes. At this salon\, we’ll learn about the stories of several dancers through the history of their shoes – from bare feet to pointe slippers to tango heels! \nThe program will start with a talk about the symbolism and feminism of shoes\, why women wear heels\, and how wearing heels changes and reflects the body – the look from outside the shoes and the feel from inside the shoes. Then\, join us for riveting dance performances from a group of trained dancers representing many different styles. You’ll walk away inspired\, and learn a bit more to tell your story with your own shoes. \nAs always with SF Salon Music\, expect the unexpected! You’ll leave with new knowledge\, new memories\, and perhaps even a new connection. Join us on April 30 at the Verdi Club in San Francisco for this once-in-a-lifetime performance.

SUMMARY:18 Reasons: Pate a Choux Primer - In Person
DESCRIPTION:Price:\n$165.00\nMember Price:\n$155.00 \nA hands-on in-person cooking class. Alongside the tasting of baked goods\, a seasonal salad will be served with wine or beer. This class is limited to 12 students. Review our registration and cancellation policies here. Masks are recommended. \nOne magic dough can create a delicious appetizer\, a main course\, and a dessert. Can’t believe it? Join us for a class celebrating the versatility of the iconic pastry known as Pâte à Choux!  \nFirst\, you’ll make gougères. These light-as-air gruyere cheese puffs are the perfect canvas for savory fillings (or solo snacking). Make them ahead of time and you’ll have a delicious appetizer at the ready. For the main course\, you’ll make Parisienne gnocchi. They’re like their Italian counterparts\, except these cheesy herbed dumplings use pâte à choux dough instead of potatoes to make little pillows of deliciousness. You’ll serve the dumplings with brown butter and even more cheese. Finally\, we’ll work together to make a towering dessert that intimidates many a home baker: the croquembouche. French for “crunch in the mouth\,” a croquembouche is a cone-shaped tower of cream puffs (aka profiteroles) bound together by caramel. \nAdd this dynamo of a dough to your repertoire with this essential recipe! \nMENU \nGougères \nGnocchi à la Parisienne with Brown Butter and Sage \nCroquembouche—Vanilla Custard Cream Puffs with Caramel \nThis menu contains the following common allergens: Egg\, Dairy\, Wheat. If you have allergies or dietary restrictions that concern your ability to cook along\, please e-mail info@18reasons.org before purchasing a ticket. \nLet’s Cook Together!  \nJennifer Altman began her culinary journey at age eight\, baking and cooking for her family and friends. After a career in science\, she followed her passion to become a pastry chef. She loves anything to do with food—cooking\, gardening\, recipe development\, and especially teaching. In a nod to many of her students’ baking anxieties\, Jennifer demystifies the process by teaching baking fundamentals\, allowing her students to return home with the confidence to create their own masterpieces. Jennifer’s specialties include baking and desserts.

Three uses in this class as well\, as we only begin to explore the many applications of this culinary jack-of-all-trades. \nTo begin\, we will make a riff on classic Mapo Tofu.  Chickpeas instead of pork\, but a soft\, simmering use of tofu\, sparked with ginger and garlic.  We will have a great introduction to the world of Sichuan peppercorns\, as their numbing heat is essential in this dish.  Plated with some rice our volunteers will whip up in the back\, and our first dish on the tofu tour. \nNext we will revisit Chef Mike’s first college days\, very early in San Diego with tofu fish tacos.  No mahi in this version: we will dust pieces of firm\, marinated tofu in seaweed flavored flour\, then beer batter the tofu and deep fry it.  Whip up some taco garnishes\, all vegetarian\, and assemble our “fish” tacos in a tofurrific application. \nFinally we will wrap up our tour with dessert\, with a pudding where our culinary All Star will go out in deep disguise.  No one will know what makes our pudding so smooth and unctuous\, but we will all know its silky tofu at the base.  It’s up to you whether you tell or not\, but we encourage you to celebrate tofu in all its incarnations. \nMENU \nMapo Tofu with Chickpeas \nDeep fried Tofu “Fish” Tacos\, Crunchy Slaw\, Guacamole\, and Vegan Crema; Vegetarian Refried Beans with Warm Salsa Topping \nChocolate Orange Tofu  Mousse  \nThis menu contains the following common soy\, wheat. If you have allergies or dietary restrictions that concern your ability to cook along\, please e-mail info@18reasons.org before purchasing a ticket. \nLet’s Cook Together!  \nBorn in the Haight Ashbury neighborhood of San Francisco\, Mike Weller grew up in the suburbs of San Jose\, where he discovered cooking as his first profession and lifetime passion. After wandering through typical teenage jobs at pizza joints and ice cream parlors\, Mike’s first “restaurant” job was with Sambo’s Coffee Shops\, slinging hash and cooking eggs for the bar rush and Sunday breakfast crowds.  He moved on to help open several restaurants\, attend the California Culinary Academy\, and study under European chefs with Michelin backgrounds. Later\, Mike served as an executive chef for catering companies\, wineries and country clubs.  When his son was born\, Mike transitioned his career into teaching\, returning to the CCA where he eventually became the Executive Chef and Director of Academics. Mike also returned to school for training in his new field\, earning a Master’s Degree in Education. Having taught for Le Cordon Bleu North America in both online and brick and mortar schools\, Mike is thrilled to return to teaching in a neighborhood-based community.  When he is not teaching he reaps the benefits of his backyard garden\, kept in perfect order by his Master Gardener wife.

Two dishes and many more techniques to keep you happy and full every night of the week. \nTo begin with we will learn to poach fish with a glorious piece of pristine white California halibut.  Delicate and moist\, poaching is an ideal way to cook – but never overcook – tender fish.

Then we will learn the pilaf-method of rice cookery for perfect fluffy rice\, and glaze some colorful carrots in buttery goodness to wrap up our dish. \nThe secrets of crispy-skinned fish will center our second offering\, as we crisp up some local and sustainable rock cod.  Served over a warm lentil salad so we can explore the tiniest dried legume\, and sauced with a mustardy vinaigrette just to prove that vinaigrettes are for far more than salads. \nMENU \nPoached Halibut\, Rice Pilaf\, Glazed Carrots\, Beurre Blanc \nCrispy Skin Local Rockcod\, Lentil Salad\, Mustard Vinaigrette \nThis menu contains the following common allergens: fish\, dairy.

Black queer dance floors have always served something else — a vibrant and vibrating antidote to the here and now. The most important clubs in Black queer nightlife history\, from The Warehouse in Chicago to Paradise Garage in New York\, were known for serving ovah beats\, guiding clubbers eager to ride waveforms to other dimensions. What do these frequencies of Black queerness make possible?” \n    — madison moore \nDrinks will be available for purchase at the bar. Please note\, the bar is cash only. There is no ATM on site.\nAccessibility Information \nSeating is available at this event. For any other accommodations\, please email publicengagement@sfmoma.org 10 days prior to the event\, and we will do our best to fulfill your request.\nAbout madison moore \nmadison moore is an artist-scholar\, DJ\, and assistant professor of Critical Studies in the USC Roski School of Art and Design. His research is broadly invested in the aesthetic\, sonic\, and spatial strategies queer and trans people of color use to thrive in the face of rolling catastrophe. His first book\, Fabulous: The Rise of the Beautiful Eccentric (Yale University Press\, 2018)\, offers a cultural analysis of fabulousness as a practice of resistance. He is currently writing a new book called How to Go Clubbing that offers a journey through the iridescence of queer nightlife.

SUMMARY:Public Works: KOKOKO! presented by Public Works & White Crate
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 4th\, 8pm – 12am \nLoft / 21+ / Limited Capacity \nKALW Presents 91.7 FM. \nLINEUP: \n➩ KOKOKO! \n➩ Only Now \n➩ DJ Sep \n━━━━━━━━━▲━━━━━━━━━ \nKOKOKO! BIO: \nKOKOKO! Exploded onto the electronic music scene in 2018 and quickly rewrote the usual \nwestern narrative of what electronic music is and\, more importantly\, what “world music” isn’t. \nThe band’s colourful approach\, wild\, uncontrollable sounds and instruments rapidly tore up \nany perception\, pre-condition and performance of an African band of the past. \nKOKOKO! created the DIY instrument spectacle that has since forged a path for other \nbands to follow\, meanwhile KOKOKO! have become more electronic and percussive\, \nthey focus on the nighttime atmospheres of Kinshasa – filled with energy and everything \nfrom the equipment to the sound system pushed to their limit. With amps smoking\, wires \nmelting\, and the crowd losing it. It’s a huge truck coming forward at you..this is the new \nKOKOKO! sound. \nOnly Now Bio: \nOnly Now is the vision of Kush Arora\, based in Berkeley\, CA. His sound is an unremitting emission of razor cut rhythms\, primitive channeling\, and ritualistic electronics. There is wild abandon in his approach; from seething Indian tribalism to cold fronts of ambience that highlight Arora’s ability to juggle disparate sonics. Active in the Bay Area since the late 90’s\, Kush produces in scenes ranging from noise to dancehall as with his recent “Indian Unclassical” series. Arora’s work has been featured on the BBC and in The Wire\, The Quietus\, The Guardian\, FACT\, Resident Advisor\, and Bandcamp Daily. \nOnly Now \n \nInstagram.com/Kusharora \nOnlynow.Bandcamp.com \nKusharora.com \nDJ SEP Bio: \nDJ Sep is a long-time San Francisco Bay Area DJ/producer\, and the founder of Dub Mission\, one of the longest-running Reggae clubs in the world (1996-2019). She has produced more than 1000 shows\, and has performed at many festivals\, clubs\, alternative venues\, museums\, and private events. She spins dub\, reggae\, dancehall\, jungle\, DnB\, and Afrobeats dance music. For 22 years\, Sep was also on Bay Area radio\, first on the legendary college radio station KUSF\, and later on Berkeley’s public radio station\, KPFA. She has spun in London\, Vancouver\, Tijuana\, many cities in the U.S.\, and most clubs in the greater Bay Area. Sep has presented and opened for a long list of reggae and electronic artists (see below); and has performed both solo and as Dub Mission Sound System with various MCs and musicians. \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.

SUMMARY:Manny’s: Art Show Opening: Kat Lopez-White
DESCRIPTION:Join us on the first Friday of the month as we celebrate our new May artist\, Kat Lopez-White! We will have live music\, delicious drinks\, and amazing vibes in the front cafe space so don’t miss out! \nAbout Kat Lopez-White \nKat is a Bay Area-based paper craft and collage artist. Born and raised in Manila\, Philippines\, she always had fascination in manipulating and creating with paper. She remembers growing-up using her dad’s swiss army knife to cut and cooked rice to paste paper dolls because her household never had proper craft scissors or glue. \nWhat started as a pandemic hobby in early 2021 turned into a passion project when Kat found her voice and style of using paper cutting\, collage\, and layering techniques to creatively envision anatomical body parts\, mixed with flora and fauna. \nThis series called: Anatomy of Emotions is inspired by her own parts work therapy\, Floriography – the victorian language of flowers and the hope that Spring brings. \nFor more of Kat’s work\, visit her instagram page: https://instagram.com/rock_papel_cuttings

SUMMARY:MCCLA: Mission Gráfica\, 46 years\, Community\, Culture\, and Politics (opening reception)
DESCRIPTION:Mission Gráfica\, 46 years\, Community\, Culture\, and Politics\nAn Art Exhibit curated by Juan R. Fuentes\nCurator Assistants: Calixto Robles & MCCLA Curatorial Team\nExhibition Dates: May 5 to June 25\, 2023\nOpening Reception: May 5\, 6pm to 9pm\nClosing Reception: June 25\, 2pm to 5pm \nOver a period of more than four decades\, Mission Gráfica has produced posters on a wide range of political and cultural events. It has made alliances with an astounding array of artists from around the world\, and especially across Latin America\, becoming the most significant political poster center in the San Francisco Bay Area. \nMission Gráfica was created in 1982 through the joint efforts of René Castro\, a political refugee from the coup in Chile\, and Jos Sances\, a Vietnam war draft resistor\, with a base in commercial printing. It was an outgrowth of the MCC Graphics Department\, which had produced artwork at the Mission Cultural Center since 1977. Castro’s brilliant graphic design melded with Sances’ technical mastery to create the expertise and graphic sensibility that came to define a new more aesthetically engaged form of screenprint. \nThe output of over forty years of screenprint posters and prints created at Mission Gráfica is uncountable. Early on poster collector and scholar Michael Rossman estimated that between 1982 and 1986 Mission Gráfica had produced some 500 editions. The Mission Gráfica archive of selected works numbers more than 1\,700 prints. Not included in these figures is the tremendous number of uncollected works and thousands of student works created as part of screenprint classes. \nDuring the 1990s Mission Gráfica was reformulated under the direction of Juan R. Fuentes who emphasized community projects and classes. He created a more open workshop that served artists exploring personal visions as well as political expression. Fuentes began the task of archiving the extensive collection of work that had been set aside at Gráfica. \nFuentes uses his broad knowledge of the archived works at Mission Gráfica to present this exhibition of prints reflecting an enormous variety of styles\, approaches\, and sensibilities. In addition to the principle artists that worked and taught at Mission Gráfica – Jos Sances\, René Castro\, Calixto Robles\, Alexandra Blum\, Juan R. Fuentes – the works of many other artists ranging from non-professional and emerging artists to well-known figures such as Nancy Hom\, Juana Alicia\, Ester Hernandez\, Michael Roman\, Jesus Barraza\, Isaias Mata\, Tirso Araiza and Josefina Jacquin and the San Francisco Print Collective are displayed in dialog with one another across the span of over forty years. \nThis exhibition was curated by Juan R. Fuentes with support from Calixto Robles and MCCLA Curatorial Team. With thanks and appreciation to Martina Ayala and the staff at MCCLA.\nArt Hazelwood\narthurhaz@sonic.net \narthazelwood.com \nCheck out the new book Mission Grafica: Reflections of a Community in Print\nhttps://arthazelwood.com/impresario/publications/mission-grafica-book.html \nClay Water Grass – An adobe wall \n\nJoin us for an incredible evening that honors the legacy of Mission Grafica community printmakers and artists.\nDoors Open: 5:30-6pm\n6pm-7pm:\nScreening of “Strawberry Picker” Documentary film about Juan R. Fuentes\nDirected by Eugenia Renteria and Paco Serrano\nQ&A: Juan Fuentes and Filmmakers\nArtist Panel Moderated by Juan R. Fuentes\n7pm-9pm: Art Exhibit\, Reception\nAgave Spirits: Mezcal Tasting\nDelicious food and drinks will be available for purchase\nBook\, Poster and Print Sale\nLimited spaces available.
