Come out and experience the Dangerous Curve art event titled Because I Can’t Be Beethoven. The performance, which takes place from approximately 7:00 to 10:00p.m., will consist of the destruction of a piano, which is initially trapped in a monolithic block of ice. The artist, Parris Patton, will use hand tools, hammers and hatchets, to expose the piano. When the instrument is sufficiently exposed it will be set on fire for a short period of time as the climax of the event.
*The event is Free and open to anyone. Food is being provided by a commercial vendor with a barbeque trailer.
Timeline:
Noon to 3:00 - Ice block arrives on flatbed, unloaded by crane. outer box removed, scenario set up including a few fake trees, lights, sound system. Barbeque arrives and sets up.
3:00 to 7:00 - Photography, ice block admiration time, Beethoven music played over sound system, eating and hanging out.
7:00 to 10:00 - Destruction of ice block by Parris, documentation video taping and photograhy, more Beethoven music via sound system. At climax, near 10:00 p.m. fire set and extinguished.
10:00 - Music off, performance over.
10:00 to midnight: Only crew remains for quiet clean up midnight - Everyone goes home
We anticipate some clean up may continue Sunday in order to minimize late night activity.
Please join us for this day-long party. It promises to be a memorable Arts District event. You will want to be able to say “I was there.” If it isn’t your cup of tea we thank you for your patience.
Resident ‘Event Day’ Info:
They will be conducting a street closure on Fourth Place between Mateo and Molino Streets on March 24, 2007 for the purpose of event safety. The street closure would, officially, be from noon to midnight on that date. They don’t expect the street to be actually closed for the entire period, but want the option to close it as needed, for delivery of artwork and the actual event as outlined in the timeline below. The relevant law requires a twenty foot wide fire lane to remain clear at all times during the closure, so necessary passage by resident vehicles should be easy to manage as need be. Mr. Patton is hiring a registered pyrotechnician for this phase of the performance. The technician will acquire all necessary permits for the event and has assured us that the fire will not produce noxious odors or very much smoke. We expect it will smell like a fireplace fire. As part of the requirements for the street closure Mr Patton is securing all necessary insurance. All trash will be policed by our crew and the street left cleaner than normal after the event.
Thanks for the tip Tim!
I wanted to share with everyone a really easy and cool way to share photos with the community. If you haven’t already visited, please check out the Official Molino Street Lofts Photos Gallery; we are utilizing a Flickr gallery so it’s super easy to contribute and share!
All you need to do is email the picture to this email address: does59didnt@photos.flickr.com
And add the following to describe each photo:
1. Use the subject line to give your photo a title
2. Write in the body to add a description.
You can also use a special code to add tags before you send your email. The “Tag” you give your image is basically it’s category, i.e.: “dangerous curve party” “pool deck sunrise” or “march hoa meeting” - they are user generated so be creative.
Within minutes they should appear on the “Photos” Page. You can even send them from your cell phone camera or digital camera if it has wi-fi!:)
*Thanks for the reminder T.

Hope that helps and please let any of the HOA members know if you have any additional questions…
Okay, I had to record this sound, it was mind numbingly loud.
Greetings Residents,
It has come to my attention that there are a lot of people who are currently playing their music too loudly, or have sub-woofers that are disturbing their neighbors as well.
I personally knock and ask people politely to turn down their music, but when does it become a “nuisance?”
On some occasions I have had to ask residents DAILY to keep their music down, other times I have literally had to drag person into the hallway to have them hear the ruckus they were causing.
I just wanted to remind people that living in a loft/Arts district doesn’t give you carte-blanch to “ignore your manners,” or “social responsibilities”.
This is a community, let’s treat each other with mutual respect and dignity. We all share this space, so we all should respect it equally. We already have construction noise issues, let’s not torment ourselves unnecessarily either.
Cheers!
I’m happy to announce that the MolinoStreetLofts.org community Gmail accounts are complete - it’s nickname internally has been “Molino Mail”, so we made up some nifty logos to re-brand the Gmail interface for everyones pleasure. Enjoy the system and use freely, we are big supporters and proponents of the Gmail interface and usability (top notch).
Here is how it works:
That’s it, simple yes? After logging in you can easily create alias and other email ‘lists’ to redirect and use - i.e.: jeremy@molinostreetlofts.org or niceguy@molinostreetlofts.org (you get the idea). I personally manage multiple email accounts with my Gmail, and have been a Google Apps beta tester for over 3 years, we really love all their interface simplicity.
Let me know if you have any questions and comment when you have time!
Cheers,
Jeremy
