A Mohr Connected World

In his new novel, All This Life, Bay Area author Joshua Mohr illustrates (in words) the ways in which our interactions with one another and with the world are changing now that we're ever more connected. Instantaneous information and limitless communication bring us closer together, but it happens so quickly that it's tough to identify and describe. Mohr attempts to get to the how of it through his novel, which traces the lines of connectivity between a Golden Gate Bridge tragedy, the release of a sex tape in Arizona, and other events that may never have brushed elbows in the world predating modern technology.

Joshua Mohr speaks at 7:30 p.m. at the Booksmith, 1644 Haight St., S.F. $25; 415-863-8688 or booksmith.com.

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
