Patrick Leonard Eating on the Move When I’ve got long days during the TBA festival, I’ll usually carry snacks and a flask to keep my energy up between lectures, performances, and the Works. The downside is that carrying so much crap (add a laptop, a camera, notebooks, etc) can make one feel weighed down. Sometimes […]

Tonight: Free TBA Opening Night with Gang Gang Dance
PICA’s opening night festivities are downright understated this year, compared to last year’s white-clad procession, 2007’s chirping and flapping in the Square, or 2006’s floating art raft/parade situation. I’m not complaining—the Works opening tonight should be fun, and I do appreciate not having to feign enthusiasm about “being a happening.” The doors to Washington High […]

TBA and Your Internet.
I’m really, really excited for the online conversations that are going to take place around the TBA festival this year. Twitter is a factor in a way that it hasn’t been in years past, and I’ve already found it helpful in locating content strewn across various blogs. (Speaking of blogs, it’s great to see that […]

Budget TBA
Cost is always cited as a reason why people don’t attend TBA—and certainly, passes are prohibitively spendy for many people. But as On Portland rightly points out in a blog post today, there’s actually quite a bit going on that’s free, including tomorrow’s opening night Works performance with Gang Gang Dance, and Monday’s Labor Day […]

The Works at TBA: Washington High School
Every year, PICA chooses a different location for the Works, the Time-Based Art festival‘s late-night performance/party space. The Wonder ballroom two years ago was a misstep; Leftbank proved awkward last year thanks to bad sightlines and a cramped dance floor. This year’s venue could not be more perfect. A couple weeks ago, before cleanup had […]
