So, on the topic of sociability, I went to a book release party for Vanessa Place's La Medusa the other day. It was acutely enjoyable, with a plot powerpoint by Teresa Carmody, Sissy Boyd did an exquisite movement piece, Christine Wertheim dissected vocalizations of qua...lecture on the origins of Wilshire boulevard, and more.

By the end, I was melting into the night, margarita glowing, so so pleased with the words I had seen reimagined.

I'm excited to read the core text. "As smart as Ulysses, but sexier."
