Journey to the End of the Night: Oakland by Jeff

June 23rd, 2009 9:38 AM

INSTRUCTIONS: A pursuit across Oakland in 6 parts.

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.


No bikes, no cars, just feet and public transportation.

Document your experience.

I was caught on my way to checkpoint #6. I was walking a briskly, perhaps a bit too much so. Out of the far street corner two women emerged. We made eye contact briefly. Suddenly we both realized we were playing the game.

I tried to hide behind a van but it was no good. They had split up and corned me. I bolted for the safezone. I was only one block away but alas it was futile. I became one of them.
