youthful folly
Oct. 13th, 2013 09:13 pmI must admit, I was expecting a more "Indiana Jones and the Magic Flute" aesthetic from this, but instead, they were four modern college students, none of them with a fedora and leather jacket. The set design was pretty cool, and really weird looking, and…holy shit, labyrinth under a temple in the Yucatan… that's the plot to Pathways Into Darkness. Here are some pictures.

At the Boston Common, there were CoolGlobes, an art exhibit meant to raise environmental awareness. I hope that time a river caught fire was the wake up call we needed. They're everywhere, it seems. I found photos, and they're really good photos, but they're not the ones I saw. The Boston Common had one covered in frogs (all amphibians live in freshwater now), and one covered in random plastic containers, which had the message of "reduce our output" or perhaps "it's a perfectly good container, why not use it for something else? Make a statue of Ganga, the goddess of the Ganges river. Might be blasphemous to admit there is something very fucking rotten in the state of Uttar Pradesh, but at least it would get the point across." And some people were playing the pianos and some people were singing.

Here they are on ArchBoston.
Yoon Lee had a mural called Confluence Mirrored attached to some scaffolding that was used to catch falling bits of debris near Boylston's entrance.

Decaying splendour.
There was a white door just there in Braintree Station's parking lot. A house door, not a car door. It didn't lead to anything, it wasn't even on hinges, it was just a door.
burning question: does Lucius Shepard dream of crashed helicopters that think they are gods?
