Two guys backpacking in the cold from Redhook, Brooklyn to Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Using only a map of toxic sites to navigate their way, they follow the East River shoreline, and the Statue of Liberty…
Deadpan funny, and informative to boot.
Atomic Stone Age
A Theatrical Dance Performance.
Conceived and Directed by Corinna Vosse.
Choreography by Paul Bargetto
This was a performance on the Red Hook piers in May of 1997 at the Brooklyn Waterfront Artists Coalition’s Annual Pier Show
It featured music by me and my pal Wrybread working samplers live. I edited this down from about 20 minutes of Hi-8 video from Chris Baxter. That’s East Village performance artist, Gecko, with the flaming nipples.
