JOHN LAW + SOAPBOX DERBY + PEOPLE’s PARK +

The Bay Area‘s radical curiosity about both its natural and built environments is celebrated in this rollicking program of brave inquires and discovery! Heading the bill is Cacophony conspirator John Law‘s The Known Unknown,  finally revealing some secrets of urban exploration in the Bay Area and beyond.–fascinating details on his many forays into the City’s off-limits areas. John‘s 45-min show n’ tell covers not only the sewers but bridge expeditions as well, with lots of forbidden footage from impossible angles. Supporting his oral history are reports on the WharfPlaylandPeople’s Park (via Anthony Buchanan), and even last spring’s already-legendary MOMA Soapbox Derby (Gregory Gavin and Jake Scott). PLUS: Ellie Vanderlip‘s faux report on the disappearance of public water fountains, Jeremy Rourke‘s What Is ATA?Steve McQueen‘s Bullitt promo (paired with Simon Cox‘ Sideshow), 16mm of the Niners in the ‘82 Superbowl, and free postcards of course. *$11
