Southern Machine Exposure Project

Southern Machine Exposure Project

(Announcing) 20 events
(Featuring) 20 combinations of artists and performers from LA and SF
(Inside of) 20 homes in the Bay Area
(Commemorated by) 20 posters
(Designed by) 20 designers from SF and LA
(Documented by) 20 videos

Southern Exposure (San Francisco) and Machine Project (Los Angeles) invite you to visit your neighbors' apartments, houses, backyards, and garages for 20 consecutive days/evenings of performances, psychic readings, workshops, ghost detecting, participatory foley effects, tableaux vivants, pet portraits, experimental music by dogs, low frequency sound performances (in closets), and general awesomeness throughout the month of June.

Each event features a collaboration, double bill, or blind date between artists and performers from Los Angeles and San Francisco, and is commemorated by a series of posters by San Francisco and Los Angeles designers. Events take place off-site in residences throughout San Francisco and Oakland. Southern Exposure's 20th Street space serves as the production headquarters and meeting space for project participants and screens daily video documentation of each event as it accumulates throughout the project.

Project Details and Sign Up:
Southern Machine Exposure Project events all take place in private homes that serve as public venues. As a result of the intimate nature of these 20 unique spaces there is limited attendance for each event. Registration for each project opens 7 days prior to the actual event. One new project opens daily at noon beginning June 4, 2012. Times and audience capacity varies for each project. Pre-registration is REQUIRED and all events are FREE.
