First off, big thanks to everyone who came out to SF Decompression on Sunday. It’s always a great day, and it was amazing to see so many smiling faces, it is why we do this after all. Decompression is always challenging to set-up and to strike. It requires a lot of work, time money and patience on our end, so next time you see your neighborhood Space Cowboy give them a big hug. We don’t get any financial support to do events like Decompression, so we rely on your support at events like GhostShip III: the Armada and the upcoming Global Cool(er) at Chabot Science Center on November 13th to keep on going.

The Global Cool(er) event on November 13th is the gala celebration for the new Bill Nye Climate Lab exhibit, and we’re thrilled to be playing the After Party. We’ll be bringing the Unimog out to show our love of Space and the earth too. 8ball, Brad Robinson, Mancub and Shissla will be throwing down the beats and there are plenty of amazing other things to do at the Chabot. We don’t really know why you would want to do anything but dance, but the exhibits will be open (without screaming kids), there will be movies shown in their enormous mega-dome theatre, and best of all, you can look through their amazing array of telescope on the observation deck. Last time we played there (for the first Bay Area Yuris Night) it was amazing, seeing the stars like that was an experience I won’t soon forget. See below:

So I’m at home pondering this… (in a very “chill” state due to Deckard’s mix, see below) Am I over-using Space Cowboy channels to aid in the creation of the Temple of Flux? Hmmm…. I’m just kidding, you really think I ponder such things? Yes, those of you who no me, know I take such things seriously (perhaps too seriously) but surely I don’t ponder them, the answers to such things are self-evident (such as the supremacy of Arinell’s pizza in this foggy excuse for summer-in-the-city). Anyway, so I’m doing this little sculpture project with a few friends for this little arts festival in some dusty town in northern Nevada, and we need to raise a lot of money to get it done, like $50k a lot. The big problem is that we’re going to burn this sculpture on Sept. 5th as a giant piece of performance art, and therefor can’t sell the sculpture. It’s all about somehow relating that change is a natural part of our lives, both when confronting life and death, as well as understanding our relationship to the environments that surround us, both built and “natural”. See it’s all about perception and framing how you see the world. Kind of like when you look through a window and only see a bit of the world around you. You get this, windows are an easy way to see the artificial frames that we construct to shape our views, and I mean that in a deep, very deep, I mean you are getting sleepy deep, metaphysical way. So the city is a construct of our continual framing of the real (its all really just a bunch of surfaces with windows right?), in both literal and philosophical ways. Depending on how you frame things, there is either joy or pain; it just matters how you build the window.

I can go on…. but you rather just come down to Supperclub SF tomorrow (Friday 7/24) to WINDOWS: joys and panes of a metropolis. It should change how you see things…
