Looking At The Sky In Silence?

This has the stench of Academy of Art student project emanating from it, but...who knows? An SFist reader (hillary's_quivering_lip) sent it in to us, taken at Montgomery and Sacramento. It's been posted there for a week, and said reader did not look up quietly.

Did you?

Update: The addendum reads: "I really tried for a minute but my neck hurts and I'm
pretty sure my eyes are playing tricks on me. thank you though. x o" Ta-da.

me. thank you though. x o"

apologies for the crap cell-camera-phone

No, because I figured either some arty type was lurking nearby waiting to take pictures of those who obey, or that it was put up by a damn hippie.

I love this shit, I really do. At least it's not trying to get you to go see "Forgetting Sarah Marshall."

agreed! i just want to know what happens. i'll head over there tomorrow to investigate.

At the corner of Montgomery & Clay someone spray-painted a big square that says "Dance Patch!" at the top. I've been really wanting to watch and see if anyone dances in it.

too

students

There's a dance patch square at the top of the stairs at the 16th and Mission BART station, too. I saw it last night and hoped the old man in front of me would bust a move. Unfortunately he did not. I was tempted.

I don't like it when signs try to tell me what to do. Doesn't matter if it's a piece of paper stapled to a pole or a bumper sticker. NO.

Oh, great! Now I have that song stuck in my head...

i went to the academy of art college school and now i'm a waitress

this is from david horvitz's show at right window last month.
or something that spawned from it.

this reeks of Art Institute, the one on the hill not the one in civic center, not Academy.

OK, I'll obey the sign but only while I'm gorked

[my fav word of the week]

I wouldn't obey that sign. I've seen enough cartoons to know that an anvil, piano or safe would drop out of the sky and onto my head. Who needs a big nasty erection-like bump or to see birds and stars take up orbit around his or her head? Not me.

My brother gave us a copy of a book by Miranda July and Harrell Fletcher and some other wuvvable hippie artists (part of the 826 Valencia mafia I think) called "Learning to Love You More" and it's full of old-fashioned projects like, "make a paper hat, give it to the next person you pass on the street, and document the results".

They have a web site: http://learningtoloveyoumore.com/

See? I knew this sign was hippie-inspired.

They are just trying to determine who has the russian implants and who doesn't.
