THE JUNIOR PANTHERS
With influences such as the Jesus and Mary Chain, My Bloody Valentine, Primal Scream and the Rolling Stones, the Junior Panthers like to shake it up with their own style of raucous riffs, driving rhythms and addictive melodies.
LORDY RODRIGUEZ
Neighborhoods change. There are always multiple narratives associated with any neigh- borhood, both new and old. Lordy Rodriguez’s interactive art project reveals the historical narratives of Japantown and integrates them with the personal stories of individuals to create a “map” of experiences. Check out Rodriguez’s booth at the Festival Forum for instructions on how to interact with this project.
