Wear your favorite playa outfit that maybe you didn't get to wear, tutus, white out....or a speedo works too. Depending on the weather, we might set up a combination indoor/outdoor space.

What is "The Infinite Game"?

The premise is that infinite games have ever-changing sets of players and even rules. The goal of an infinite game is to keep on playing forever, rather than to stop by declaring a winner. Players in an infinite game are trying to keep authentic interactions going. Finite games are theatrical, necessitating an audience; infinite games are dramatic, involving participants.

Our goal is to encourage participation and authentic interactions. We want these events to occur in perpetuity, allowing the interpersonal connections to flourish across multiple evenings through time.

FAQ:
What is BRUSH|REED?
Linnea and I have been collaborating as BRUSH|REED since 2009.  Live music/Live painting.
The artists join together to explore the parallels between painting and music via live stage performances. Jennifer transforms the printed notes of her musical score into lush soundscapes, Linnea further interprets the music into visual color and form on her fresh canvas.  The paintings that emerge establish a visual memory of the sights, sounds, and emotions of each intimate affair, impressing upon each audience member a feeling of symbiosis between the two disciplines presented to them.  
A full history of our collaboration is explained here: about
 
What is Twitch?
Founded in 2011, Twitch is a popular online service used to watch and stream digital video broadcasts.
