Fran Meckler, award-winning documentary photographer and Bay Area resident, takes us on a journey in Fading Traditions: Papua New Guinea in Color, giving us a taste of the country’s sprawling beauty and deeply entrenched traditions. “The land of the unexpected,” Papua New Guinea is a country where few tourists journey and where long-held traditions have been preserved. Through Meckler’s work, viewers will have the chance to explore this largely uncharted land and gain a broader perspective of life in this corner of the world.

  • 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.'"
