Ok, so I blew it last Saturday and didn’t make it to Agora II (the site specific dance performance/social experiment by Noémie Lafrance) as I had hoped and posted about before, (rain, friends birthday parties… excuses, excuses).
Anyhow, it seems to have worked out ok, because this is the last week (09.27-10.01) that Agora II will be at McCarren Park Pool and on Friday they are going all out! They’ve invited Critical Mass to join in the form of 500 bicycles riding through the performance, and there will be a huge dance party after the show!
Note that when buying tickets to the show you have the option of being a either a Viewer or a Player.
From my understanding, people that opt to be Players are allowed into the pool at certain points during the performance and given some basic choreography to do within the show.
The good news is that The Winger has been granted PRESS access.
I’ll be there on FRIDAY, shooting the performance as a “Player” with my hands-free Samsung Sportscam (It’s inaugural outing).
Also, readers of The Winger get a 25% discount on tickets!
Enter Code: POOL at checkout.
And if you’ve already seen Agora II this year, you can bring your program and ticket stub on Friday to get $10 tickets to the show and party.
So, between the discount, and the fact that I’ll be there shooting…
How about getting a team of Wingers out on FRIDAY night for the performance and the party?
Whether you want to be a Player or Viewer, we can all congregate afterwards at the party. Drop me a line so that I know to look out for you.
C’mon. It’ll be fun!

Last night Dougie and I went to a preview of some of Samsung’s newest MP3 players at the penthouse of The Palace Hotel.
Definitely not a bad place to hang out. Plus I got to talk electronics… and even a little jazz.
Afterwards, we headed to Soho House for a screening of Wendybird, a short film starring Kirsten Dunst. And guess what… they served HiBall at the party!

We’re at the Samsung launch of Blu-ray, a new technology, with 5x the resolution of DVD! They will be the first company to offer a Blu-ray player in the US. The format has also been adopted by most other technology brands (including the Playstation 3) and will probably be coming to a home theater near you.
It was great to see the technology in action, I’ve been hearing about it for a while now. You really can see the difference.
I also got to chat with the Samsung peeps about their new sports cam, one of which they are generously donating to The Winger. (We’re supposed to receive it next week). Should be fun to experiment with, in the dance realm.
