Mission Mission

Telstar Logistics has the full report:

Telstar Logistics visited San Francisco’s Chinatown last weekend, and along the way we encountered one of the simplest and most delightful examples of public art that we’ve come across in quite some time.

Read on.

Julie Michelle’s awesome project I Live Here: SF gets put where it belongs tonight, in a gallery*. As you probably know, she’s been photographing various people around San Francisco, telling their stories visually, and then letting them tell their own stories in words.

It sounds like she’s been working her tuchus off at nearby Dickerman Prints to make sure all the prints are just right. Come by SOMArts (934 Brannan St.) tonight between 6 and 9pm to see Julie in person. Artist’s talk is at 6:15, so you may want to go straight from work.

Our fearless leader, Allan, by Julie.

Our previous coverage includes Allan, Armand, Brittney, Beth, Plug 1 (Troy) and me.

*That’s right. Torn off the internet and put up on gallery walls, where important stuff goes. Oh, you think your little tweets belong on the walls of the Louvre? Nope. They belong in the garbage. Sorry, but it had to be said. Tweet that.

Start reading Birthday Pony if you’d care to follow the continuing adventures of this funny pair of bunnies, and also enjoy other art and curation by one Tika Hall.

I am loving this Choose Your Own Monster comic-thing that DocPop came up with. This design is loosely based on math-whiz Jason Shiga’s mind-bogglingly intricate Choose Your Own Adventure comics.

Occurring on Valencia Street, near 18th.

Guera de Estrellas!  Noticed this over at jacobchills.com, who you may remember was responsible for the non-paparazzi shot of Dave Chappelle at Pakwan a while back.  Check out the rest of them here!

BTW, don’t forget to donate to the Dia de los Muertos non-profit because the city has raised permit fees and the organization is in a funding crisis!

This is in the bathroom at SoCha Cafe. What do you think it means?

Go Giants and . . . Violent J from Insane Clown Posse??

Outside of Mission Bar.

Might I suggest Jet Travel for your color-coordinated jet-setting needs?  Not impressed?  Well then, head up the street to their obvious nemesis, Jet Peru.

Oh, and if you’re going there this evening (from 6-8pm), take a moment to stop by Fabric8 next door for art and street food from the likes of Magic Curry Kart and others.  And don’t forget to check out this thing.

The little rats in The Secret Alley have been madly scurrying about to prepare for two amazing weekends of Halloween. Up first – tonight! – musicians will play some amazingly creepy music for you. Tomorrow (Sat.) we will scare the old fashioned pants off of you with some 16mm monster movies from a time gone by.

Both nights you will enter through our recently haunted laboratory lobby, and try to shield your eye, yet remain transfixed on the wondrously strange art that hangs from the walls. Surprises are in store. Come see for yourself.
