Michael Jackson and his chimp Bubbles have been resurrected as green specters. They haunt a house and engage spectators in a tragicomedy.

handshake / mandrake
(Note: Each audience member needs to bring a three-pronged extension cord.)
Stijn and Justin present a performance in three acts. Using a pair of super 8 projectors and a handful of props they set out to explore the house and the surrounding land. From there everyone will make some popcorn together and look at at the handshake, how it lives and what it can grow into. Over the course of the evening, through our words and gestures, we will be investigating things that are similar but not the same, namely: copies, clones, counterfeits, decoys, doubles and doppelgangers, fakes, forgeries, the odd instant replay, and one very special overlay. 

Southern Machine Exposure Project events all take place in private homes that serve as public venues. As a result of the intimate nature of these 20 unique spaces there is limited attendance for each event. If you’d like to attend, you must sign up ahead of time and register online. Registration for each project opens seven days prior to the actual event. One new project opens daily at noon beginning June 4, 2012. Times and audience capacity varies for each project. Pre-registration is REQUIRED and all events are FREE.

Southern Machine Exposure Project is a project developed by Southern Exposure (San Francisco) and Machine Project (Los Angeles), involving 20 combinations of artists and performers from LA and SF, presented off-site in 20 homes in the Bay Area over 20 consecutive days from June 11 - 30.
