We unintentionally started April Fool's Day a little bit early this year when we said that Cross-Dress Bowling was last Saturday. It was on Sunday. I hope that those few men that never question what I am writing had no problem showing their feminine side in public on Frat Boy Saturday at the Garage.
To make things worse I have received a lot of invitations for this week and they all sound crazy. In fact I do know that some of them are actually not real events. So be warned: April Fool's Day is not over yet. In fact nobody here at the Party Volcano Labs is really having a big problem extending it to a whole April Fool's week. Please always check before you take your date to something like "Competitive Cross-Dress Butoh" at Cowgirls on a Friday night!

Funiki: Floating Feelings
Michael and Deborah write:
Dear Party Volcano,
We would like to invite you to check out the upcoming show at Viveza Gallery - Funiki: Floating Feelings, an installation of recent works by Seattle-based artist Etsuko Ichikawa. Ichikawa's exhibit is a gathering of intangible "floating feelings" that are transformed by the artist into 3D and 2D glass and mixed-media art forms which can be seen, touched or experienced, creating a subtle, yet moving, "emotional atmosphere" for the viewer to explore.
Please join us at the artist reception on Friday, April 2nd from 6 - 10pm.
Hope to see you then!
Thanks,
Michael Rivera-Dirks and Deborah A. Priest

Check out the photo below. It looks pretty cool:
Viveza Gallery is pleased to present Funiki: Floating Feelings, an installation of new mixed-media works by Seattle artist Etsuko Ichikawa. Funiki (雰囲気) means “atmosphere” in Japanese. Ichikawa's exhibit is a gathering of intangible "floating feelings" that are transformed by the artist into 3D and 2D art forms which can be seen, touched or experienced, creating a subtle, yet moving, "emotional atmosphere" for the viewer to explore.
In the front gallery, an installation made of hundreds of strategically-hung, hand-made glass droplets transforms into a biomorphic entity that floats alive in space, viewable from all perspectives. Scattered throughout the heart of the gallery are mixed-media glass sculptures, 3D manifestations of the in-between feelings that connect one person to another, creating a personal and spiritual “Funiki” from a seemingly empty space.
Though Ichikawa uses glass prominently in her work, she is only fully able to express her vision using a variety of materials and techniques, such as watercolors, waxed-cotton, velvet, and washi paper. “It is exhilarating to work in such diverse media as it gives me unlimited freedom to create such things as these - an in-between space, captured feelings in glass jars, and layers of thoughts on paper,” says Ichikawa.

The Wolf Prince and Parrot Princess at Priceless Works.
Mandy writes:
Hello friends and acquaintances!
Please join me in celebrating the opening of my latest body of work at the
Priceless Works Gallery, in Fremont.
The Wolf Prince and the Parrot Princess, a show that might just be about a fairy tale about finding one’s soul mate in the last place imaginable, where a snowy landscape of an absurd pom-pom chandelier and a giant white rag rug are the icy setting for the Wolf Prince to devour his true love and the Parrot Princess to pine for her Pirate, lost at sea. A thousand snowballs, hundreds of found feathers, re-animated animal skins, intimate collaged silhouette portraits of the parted lovers and crocheted blood make up this installation, a musing on loyalty, transgressive love, oblivion and memento.
Please join me, tell me what you think, at the opening reception,

Book release party for THE MYRTLE OF VENUS @ RENDEZVOUS.
DJ Superjew writes:
hello kittens!***
thought i'd throw you a line about my super neato writer friend, CLARK
HUMPHREY, who you may remember as the author of the ubiquitous seattle
music book "Loser" and the former editor of "Misc" in the Stranger
(where "last days" now resides). anyhow, he is still going at it with
his online Misc (miscmedia.com), and just wrote a book that is deeply
rooted in the whole mess that we call post-modern seattle. i read it
myself and i think it really hit a nerve, idiomatically speaking.
anyone remember the closing of the shoe building? well, anyway..
this FRIDAY APRIL 2ND @ the Rendezvous in belltown, clark will be
selling advance copies of "Myrtle of Venus" and i will be doing a rare
"SUPERJEW" dj gig (out from the cave finally..) with all my new and old
favorites from many lands and musical tastes. come by after work, say
hi, mingle, check out readings and of course the eponymous CLARK
HUMPHREY.
Book release party/fundraiser for THE MYRTLE OF VENUS, a modern comedic
novel of sex, art, and real estate; featuring author CLARK HUMPHREY and
special guest DJ SUPERJEW.
THE EVENT:
A book release party/fundraiser for THE MYRTLE OF VENUS, a modern
comedic novel of sex, art, and real estate. Copies of the book's
ultra-limited first edition will be available for purchase. DJ Superjew
will spin exotic lounge-jazz-pop tuneage. Mr. Humphrey and others will
read enticing tales.
ABOUT THE BOOK:
THE MYRTLE OF VENUS is a modern novel set in contemporary urban
America.
It starts when, the world’s blandest woman, inherits an old warehouse
in Seattle's Pioneer Square. She tries to evict its tenants, a ragtag
group of underground artists operating under the group name Studio
Dionysus.
They decide to fight back. They’ll win her over to their side. They’ll
use the power of seduction to make her an aware, sensual woman. Without
knowing what’s happening, Betty will turn from mild to wild. Or will
she?
That’s just the start of the action, as eleven vivid characters cope
with liberation, manipulation, high ideals, and lowdown-dirty deals.
THE MYRTLE OF VENUS is a raucous, robust FUN novel, filled with:
• KINKY SEX! ORDINARY SEX!
• ART! MUSIC! DANCE! VIDEO GAMES!
• BURLESQUE DANCERS! FETISH PERFORMANCE ART!
• URBAN POLITICS! CLASS STRUGGLE!
• GREEK MYTHOLOGY! OUTER-SPACE CARTOONS!
• AN EXECUTIVE DOMINATRIX AND HER OFFICE BOY-TOYS!
• A WHITE GUY WHO WANTS TO BE A BLACK LESBIAN!
• ‘YOUNG, EDGY’ ADVERTISING!

Babar @ ConWorks.
Consolidated Works is proud to present Babar as a part of the Suspension Series:
The Carters have been professional puppeteers since 1976. They trained with master puppeteers of Romania, Sicily, and China. Stephen Carter received the Fulbright Award for puppetry studies in 1984 and holds a postgraduate degree from the Institute of Theater and Cinema in Bucharest. The Carter Family Marionettes have been featured performers at National and World Puppet Festivals from Scotland to Uzbekistan. They have presented their plays in five different languages and have also been invited as guest director/designers internationally. The company has been awarded the "UNIMA/USA Citation of Excellence" (the highest award in American puppet theater) for three of their productions. Chris and Stephen Carter were the Directors of the 1999 Puppeteers of America Festival of the Millennium held at the University of Washington August 1999. The Carters are especially known for their mastery and preservation of the traditional Sicilian marionette theater known as Opera dei Pup! i.
Chris and Stephen Carter founded the Northwest Puppet Center in 1986. In 1993 they purchased and renovated a charming church in the Maple Leaf neighborhood of Seattle. The center presents a family season of puppetry by the Carters and selected guest artists with over 250 performances each year. The Northwest Puppet Center provides a valuable resource and fascinating entertainment for children and families.
I am guessing it's at ConWorks. But I am not 100% sure.

Tom, Tom the Piper's Son @ ConWorks.
Consolidated Works' presents Beyond Disbelief, the Hindsight film series:
Playing Friday, April 2 - Sunday, April 4:
Two films from legendary underground filmmaker Ken Jacobs:
Tom, Tom the Piper's Son (1969)
dir. Ken Jacobs
16mm, color and b&w, 115 min.
One of the most important and influential works of the American avant-garde, TOM, TOM is Ken Jacobs' thorough deconstruction/reconstruction of an old silent comedy. Dense yet lighthearted and comic, this is an experimental classic.
playing with:
Opening The Nineteenth Century: 1896 (1890s/1990)
16mm, b&w 9 min.
Cinematographers: Eugene Promio, Felix Mesgusch, Francis Doublier. CinÈmathËque FranÁaise places originals, perhaps exposures from cameras in motion, to 1896.
Utilizing travelogue footage shot by the Lumiere brothers' crews in the
1890's, Jacobs has compiled (and slightly 'enhanced') a beautiful lesson on the history of cinema ... IN 3-D! Viewing lenses to be provided at screening.
What others have to say about:
Tom, Tom the Piper's Son
"Ken Jacobs's avant-garde landmark (1969) is both a study in the possibilities of rephotography and a film about watching movies. It begins with a 1905 short of the same title, in which a large crowd of people tumble through a doorway, leap from a loft, and climb out of a chimney in pursuit of the eponymous pig thief. Jacobs then rephotographs the film--slowing it down, freezing frames, introducing flicker effects, and isolating portions of the frame, some so tiny that we see mostly the grain. As he varies the rhythm the film becomes a series of carefully constructed riffs on particular characters or actions, or on pure shape; new meanings emerge from the little dramas between alternating shadows, or from background elements of the original. In a gesture at once didactic and poetic, Jacobs repeats the short near the end, and now it's glorious to behold: we see its imagery more actively and intensely, far more aware of its com! plex and diverse rhythms. Thus Jacobs teaches us how to resee almost any film, by mentally reframing its images or changing the speed of its action."
- Fred Camper, Chicago Reader
PLAYING WITH
Opening The Nineteenth Century
"I will never forget the sense of wonder I felt as these old views, which might otherwise have seemed archaeological, all at once became new and immediate. Snow fell in silence over a dark, gray city, and it looked as if
I could have walked into that snowfall, which streaked past projecting eaves that might have come from a child's pop-up book; they were that magical, and they were real. Using the most simple and mechanical of methods, Jacobs had restored to those images the power they'd originally had, when the Lumiere brothers' first audiences had jumped at the sight of an oncoming train."
-Stuart Klawans
All shows play at 8pm. $7/$5 members. Please visit www.conworks.org for more information.
Consolidated Works is located at 500 Boren Ave. N, in the South Lake Union area, between Republican and Mercer.
Recompression 4 (Vancouver BC)

Saturday 4/3/04
Dog Island at Golden Gardens Park in Ballard.
Have you noticed that I didn't put "Ballard" in the usual apostrophes? That is not a typo. It's more of a quiet upgrade of this strange neighborhood. Why? This week I got introduced to a side of Ballard that I didn’t know about and I liked it. The Oaxaca is a new excellent Mexican restaurant and the Thai place across the street has an opium den downstairs and a red room where you can conduct alcohol experiments. Mine went wrong. I got something that kept me awake all night. But it was very yummy.
Either way, let's talk about dogs. My friend Jamie sent this:
Come learn about Dog Island at Seattle’s first Dog Island Daze this
Saturday at Golden Gardens Park in Ballard.
Dog Island is a sanctuary off the coast of North Carolina where you can
turn your dog loose.
“Give your dog a chance at a better life. Dog Island is the solution to
a free and natural life.”
http://www.thedogisland.com/index.html
“Your dog will finally be free of the leash, no longer hid behind a
fence. Dogs at Dog Island, after an initial period of going a bit wild,
actually find themselves forming very happy families. No longer
restrained to having to accept the only option, they can finally find
the right partner for them. Make your dog happy, and make your dog
free!”
Come say goodbye to 12 Seattle area dogs headed for their new life on
Dog Island!
Speak with dog owners and the PNW rep, Jamie Flugenhofen, to see if Dog
Island is right for your canine. Bring a dish to share with others, condiments and hot dog buns provided.
The event runs from noon –7pm, meet near the bocce ball court. Contact
BlissAttack@TheDogIsland.com for more info.

"Knock on Wood" @ SAW (Last Opening)
Yep, that's it: SAW's last opening. Last week I tried to show my sympathies by sharing random memories about SAW. I thought a cigarette company was sponsoring one of their shows. But that was wrong:
Hey Peeps,
I appreciate the sentiments...
One correction, we never accepted money from any
cigarette company. You're thinking of the Toyota -
Scion promo.
Luv ya,

Fluid Exchange @ SOIL
The press release says:
Seattle artists, Timea Tihanyi and Jodi Rockwell, team up to create individual and collaborative sculptural works regarding the structural and conceptual interpretations of the mattress. Their fluid exchange of ideas throughout the development of this theme has led them to consider the mattress as both a personal, private space and as a receptacle like the body itself; absorbing, holding, filtering and excreting fluids.

Kilt & Mini Bash
As mentioned last week $35 sounds a bit much to wear a kilt. But this is an entertaining blurb and if you are really into kilts then $35 shouldn't stop you from wearing it. After all this is an April 3rd Tribute to Tartan Day:
Kilt & Mini Bash!
4D Theatrics, NetMusic.com and the Utilikilts Co. invite you to celebrate National Tartan Day in style.
Men! How often does a woman walk straight up to you and ask you about your undergarments? If the answer is ‘never,’ please take a look at the following research study: http://www.utilikilts.com/custtop10.htm and then get suited up in your favorite un-bifurcated garment, (kilt, Utilikilt, towel etc…), get down on bended knee and address your favorite person thusly:
‘Darling, won’t you please shine up your patent leather shoes and accompany me down to the lush and sparkling Seattle waterfront so that we might celebrate amongst my kilted brethren, the holiday which encourages the best things in life to remain free? You know what I mean. Allow me to ply you with Pale, Amber Ale and the finest 15 year old Scotch. We’ll dance the night away to the rhythms of six live bands on two dance floors! We’ll sway and strut to Gypsy jazz, to fine, Celtic grooves, to soulful, rhythm, blues and swing. And if the sight of all those beautiful legs and naughty schoolgirls are too much for you, we’ll recline at the Irish coffee bar, and I will lick whipped cream off your fingers while we await the sounding of the raffle prizes which, I might add, include TWO TICKETS TO BURNING MAN given away in the first 90 minutes of the evening. There will be a Bonny Knees contest, and I will win it for you! And when the eve! ning ends, we’ll gaze out at the water, take a ride on the full size carousel and you will love me forever, or at least until I put on some pants.’
Men must be kilted. Women must wear mini-skirts (to encourage the men to show their legs!)
Women, just remember, it’s not the legs that matter, it’s what’s in-between them.
Men, just remember, the zipper scene in ‘There’s something about Mary.
For the official invitation, with all the info, please check out this lovely link. http://www.utilikilts.com/kiltandmini.html
And yes, for a $35 ticket ($45 at the door if available), TWO TICKETS TO BURNING MAN given away in the first 40 minutes, so arrive on time.
Kilt & Mini Bash is a benefit event for 4D Theatrics, a nonprofit arts organization.
Proceeds from the event will also benefit Northwest Kilt Exchange and Global Music Project.
8:00 pm to 2:00 am
Buy tickets in advance to ensure entry (tickets at the door will be limited)
