rare device will have a table set up where artists from the book will be participating in a live drawing session, and will also be available to sign books as well. we can watch along as artists draw and then pass the drawing to the next artist, and so on down a long chain. Finished artwork will be hung on rare device’s project wall. libations and snacks will be served!

if you have yet to hear about the Exquisite Book, it’s a collaborative effort between 100 artists, all contained in one beautiful book, with each artist contributing one page. The book is by Julia Rothman, Jenny Volvovski and Matt Lamothe of also, and published by Chronicle Books in September, with an illustrated foreword by Dave Eggers.

i love this virtual tour down san francisco’s market street in 1905, and the music from air makes it. not much has changed — it’s still bustling! except apparently, at one point  you could you could still make a left turn, and, nobody was peeing on you. okay, maybe it’s a little bit different.
