The Expo for the Artist and Musician

We are taking part in The 8th Annual Expo for the Artist and Musician on September 15th, 2007. The Expo is the Bay Area’s only grassroots connection fair for independent arts, music and culture — an all-day “Free Culture Fair” featuring more than 120 Bay Area arts organizations, free workshops, children’s activities, our new Community Arts Showcase featuring local music and performance, and hundreds of local artists and musicians. There will be loads of great stuff!
Details: The Expo takes place at SomArts, 934 Brannan St., San Francisco on September 15th, 2007 from 11 am – 6 pm.

Anthroptic goes public!

Ethan and Ben are having an Anthroptic spin-off show at PS122 Gallery in New York Oct. 13th – Nov 4th. Ethan has made big, high-quality prints of the images to hang in the gallery, and with each, he says, “will be some text along the lines of ‘to hear the accompanying story by Benjamin Rosenbaum, call (212)555-5555 ext. 5.’ When that number is dialed, the caller will hear the short story as read by an actor.” Here’s the info:
