Tasks / Journey To The End Of The Night
A pursuit across San Francisco in 5 parts, concluding with a bonfire at the beach.
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. Burning everything at a bonfire on the beach.
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.

(rough copy for now) -Signed up with all the other Journeymen/women at the Embarcadero, and downed a tallboy to warm up. This turned out to be a bad idea 5 minutes into the race, when my pack started getting chased. Luckily, I'm still able to ru...

I was an out of control, Scootcarting, world war one pilot looking chaser for the journey, June 17th. We chased down and wreaked havoc in the lives of many a poor journeying soul.
I arrived at the Embarcadero with Sean, Sam, Ian, and Matt at about 5:00 to help set up. Chairs and tables were placed, bread was bought, and ribbons were cut...then those of us chasing or working checkpoints headed off out of sight to keep our ident...
Around 6:30 i met up with the organizers and chasers. initially i resisted the baguette, but after very little coaxing partook. i got my (not really any) instructions and (completely useless) map and ski-daddled with most of the other chas...
