Serious Play indeed!

Wednesday night was the opening of "Serious Play", the third semi-annual conference at The Art Center in Pasedena, produced in conjunction with The Art Center and its faculty and masterminded by Chee Pearlman.

By the looks of it, this will be a giant, creative, wonderful event.

Included herewith are shots of Danny Hillis, whose comment while presenting at the 2006 edition inspired Pearlman's theme for this year, as he navigates the rope dancing patterns of a troupe of phenomenal presenters.
