OKS-NA-OX

Wednesdays Open Platform celebrates the year of the OX with MARK SALVATUS’ URBAN PLAN, and ANDREA TERAN’S MONTHLY PERIOD READINGS with guest Neo-Urban Planners KRISTOFFER ARDEÑA (photo installation), JAY PACENA (video), MANNET VILLARIBA (video ), and WESLEY VALENZUELA (poster installation), and Writers in Conversation with MABI DAVID and MARK CAYANAN.

Feeble attempts to conjecture cosmic collisions and astrological fluctuations should be shamelessly dismissed as purely superstitious. In no way can the backward movement of Mercury towards the sun affect interpersonal communication, business, travel and the like. Delays and introspection are of course, caused by more sinister emergent events such as a freak road accident, broken alarm clocks, crowded commuter trains, engine trouble, a new US president, police raid or even the partial eclipse of the sun.

Still the only thing that can derail utopian visions of urban life can come from lack of inspiration or sleep, perhaps. So come over this Wednesday as we continue to sketch the cities we love most as Mark.
