Journey to the End of the Night - May Day 2010 by Ethan A.

May 4th, 2010 6:07 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: May Day 2010: Minneapolis and Chicago

The city spreads out before you. Rushing from point to point, lit by the slow strobe of fluorescent buses and dark streets. Stumbling into situations for a stranger's signature. Fleeing unknown pursuers, breathing hard, admiring the landscape and the multitude of worlds hidden in it.

For one night, drop your relations, your work and leisure activities, and all your usual motives for movement and action, and let yourself be drawn by the attractions of the chase and the encounters you find there.


If you participated in this two-city simultaneous Journey in any way (as a player, chaser, or volunteer), please post your story here. Tell us your story of fear, lust, pain, speed, alienation, loneliness, hate, and desire.

Yesterday My buddy’s facebook status message said “skip the bar tonight and do something WAY better”. Attached was a link to a mysterious sounding event called “Journey to the end of the Night”

Now, I am the type of person that has to fight back the overwhelming urge to touch art in art museums. You know, the guy who HAS to touch the wet paint even though the sign says “wet paint”. Basically, I can’t resist anything shrouded in mystery, so, being that this Facebook status message was completely and utterly shrouded in mystery, I clicked the link wondering what in the world could possibly be more fun on a Saturday night than heading to super-fratty Wrigleyville, Chicago bars chocked full of awesome Turbos and Trixies?

So I clicked the link and it turns out, Journey to the end of the Night, is a giant city-wide game “of epic proportion” that takes place in Chicago and a handful of other cities around the world. Mucho Awesome!...

You can read the rest of these misadventures in Chicago at Youthnoise, Play City.

Mucho bueno!
