glow

Jesse and I walked down to the beach last Saturday night for "Glow Santa Monica." The event is held every other year and, this time, featured 20 temporary art installations on the Santa Monica Beach that were on display from 7pm to 3am. There was quite a variety of projects but the best ones were interactive and drew in the crowd. Here are some pictures and videos!

A little weird, but fun to watch - the soap suds were coming out of the top of the lifeguard shack at a rate determined by data gathered by the movement of the crowd...or something. I just hope the suds were environmentally-friendly. :)

Bella Luna - you can see a girl's face in the "moon." She was in a little tent singing karaoke songs about the moon.

Dinner at the India Jones food truck.

Images of dogs projected on the side of the "Hot Dog Stick" food stand. Whaaaat?!

A glowing (of course) tunnel from the boardwalk to the beach.

A video of the tunnel and Bella Luna, as well as of a different installation with giant hands projected on the sand. Oh, but I would turn down the volume for the first one - screaming kids.

  1. Sounds like a "glowing" report of a "glowing" event! :) Wish we could have been there!
