Architect, historian, and filmmaker Glenn Lym presents his hourlong documentary about the history of the S.F. City Hall building, with a primary focus on how its destruction following the 1906 earthquake made it a symbol for public concerns of corruption within its walls. After the film, Lym joins Stanford architectural history professor Paul V. Turner and historian Chris Carlsson for a Q&A session.

  • 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.'"
