MITCH DEOUDES, "LPR"
Have you ever felt worried or afraid?
Colleague Mitch Deoudes's latest project, "LPR", is a sculpture installation that seeks to lighten your mental burden. A series of internally illuminated, networked faces whisper submitted worries and fears... Taking them out of your head, and dissipating them harmlessly into the air.
The project is actively seeking user input. Offload the experiences that weigh on you, and let LPR dispose of them safely.
"Racoco Shows the Inside" returns, **now Saturday, December 10 at 5pm**

We invite you into our process as we revive our ancient series presenting work-in-progress by Racoco as well as by our collaborators and colleagues. December 10 will include a sketch of a new piece we're developing, video from our recent performance as part of Marilia Destot's La Promesse, and a glimpse of Masumi Kishimoto's newest project.
It's very informal, but space is limited. If you plan to attend, RSVP here and we will send you the entry code. And, if you'd like to show something, this time or at a future event, please get in touch!
