Pre-Burn, Pre-Dust Preview and RatRace
On Wednesday, August 23, agents of Fishbon Event Lab captured the Event Theatre, rolled out the runway and strutted their latest Playa-Wear. With last year's documentary, Beyond Blackrock streaming in the background, uplight from the light stages, and killer beats under. operatives previewed multiple avatars. Earlier in the evening, all assembled were treated to the symbolic Ratrace From Hell to YoUtopia. Heroic rats, Socrates, Quasimodo, Artemesia and Wilbur (actual order of finish). Struggled to prevail as they darted, spun in circles, reversed and finally scrambled to the finish line.
Stair Mania
On Wednesday, August 16, official undercover taggers from the Fishbon Event Lab stair squad took matters into their own hands. The presence of gray industrial carpeting on the stairs to the second and third floors of the Pescadrome had finally taken its toll. Agents, nerves frayed, set about to remedy the situation with improvised stencils, cans of spray paint and the inevitable creative inspiration. Beginning with Abstract Shapes on the first step, the stairs quickly took on a sinister aspect with the fearsome Stair Monster (who turned out to be benign) followed by a descending Stairs to Nowhere, Danger Landing, New Grange Spirals and finally a Geometric Fantasy on the top stair. Thanks to their efforts, the Pescadrome has been transformed.
