Overview
Not quite the weekend but clearly you're going to go out? The Thursday dilemma. A good festival assuages a great deal of school-night guilt purely on grounds of participation in the rich cultural life of your city or whatever, but when your event of choice is definitely educational, too, there's pretty much an obligation to get your midweek on. This year the Biennale is providing really strong motivation and justification for heading out, with festival club SuperDeluxe at Artspace holding Pecha Kucha sessions every week, the first one being an all-star lineup of artists who are part of the festival, as well as artistic director David Elliot. For 20 slides for 20 seconds at a time, presenters "chit chat" (the title is Japanese onomatopoeia) about whatever they're really really excited about right now. There are snapshots of projects and introductions to pet topics, with speakers selected on the basis of a bio, sample pictures and a rundown of their otaku-dom/geek-out. A program limited only by what you can get pictures of, the nights will be a creative forum, social space and awesome for those with short attention spans. The nights are free, but bookings are recommended — and the topics are a surprise.
