Danielle Adair - And I Think I Like It

January 10, 2012 – 8pm
At Human Resources, 410 Cottage Home Street, 90015
$5 donation

Human Resources presents Danielle Adair in performance with the final videos of her recent series, And I Think I Like It. on Thursday, January 10th. Doors at 8pm, performance to begin promptly at 8:30pm.

And I Think I Like It. is a collection of twelve video ‘song-poems’, which include original text, sound, and animations, with accompanying performances in presentation. The series began in 2011, and points to the anxiety, ennui, and, similarly, induced freedoms within the US political landscape over the past two years. The first presentation of the initial videos in the series occurred at Monte Vista Projects this May, and many of the videos have their origin in interactive performances and/or have been individually featured at such Los Angeles venues as JAUS, The SERIES (at The Standard), The Los Angeles Road Concert, Co/Lab, Eternal Telethon, Actual Size, and Ear Meal.
