Digital Artifact Magazine Presents: A Launch Party and Resource Sharing Rodeo!
Readings and performances by Christian Nagler, Matt Roher, Jacob Evans, and others
When: Thursday, August 13, 7:00 PM
Where: Modern Times Bookstore, 888 Valencia Street, SF
How: Free
Digital Artifact, an online, multimedia publication, invites you to beat the recession blues with a borrowed bounty feast in celebration of Issue Three: We Made This For You Out Of Nothing. Bring blackberries from Bernal Heights, garden grown zucchini bread, wild crafted nettle tea, and what have you! We will also facilitate a brief resource-sharing rodeo to foster culture making in cash strapped times. Bring unused art supplies to donate to Big Brothers/Big Sisters, sign up to swap skills (know web design? need a grant writer?) or just munch on some blackberries and enjoy the readings and performances.
Issue Three contributors Matt Roher and Jacob Evans, some-time editors and co-founders of Small Desk Press, will read funny, weird, sad, beautiful collaborative email poetry and discuss urban radish foraging. Christian Nagler, fiction writer, teacher, and performer with Anna Halprin's Sea Ranch Collective, will present a performance comprised of ephemeral and universally available materials.

Please join us for a multidisciplinary evening of readings, performance, audio and visual works to celebrate Issue Two of Digital Artifact Magazine, a web-based journal that explores digital and global culture using hybrid aesthetic tactics. Focusing on transnationalism, Issue Two includes fiction, poetry, essays and translations along with sound pieces, video, and images. Whether lingering in airport waiting zones or interrogating the idea of a boundary line, the works in Digital Artifact’s latest issue question the inscriptions of nationalism, locality and genre and explore the possibilities of transnational artistic practices.
Readings: Renee Evans, Marco Lean, Chana Morgenstern and Camille Roy
Audio: Amanda Davidson and Nick Ott, Mamoru Okuno, and Lily Robert-Foley
Video: Linda Ford, Juliana Mundim, and Kirthi Nath
Performance: Youth Development Principals (Heidi Cunningham, Renee Evans and Cassie Riger)
