Thank you to the hundreds and hundreds of you who came out to the first ever Flux Screening at the Hammer Museum…

“I didn’t think I was going to like this show,” artist Bill Viola told me at Thursday night’s opening reception for California Video, the Getty Center’s major exhibition celebrating California artists’ important role in video art which opens today.

Björk was there. When I tell people where I went last night, that’s the first thing they ask me: “Was Björk there?” The next question is, “What was she wearing?” Nobody asks about the buffalo.

I can’t recall the last time Spike Jonze and his entire creative team–Vince Landay (producer), Lance Acord (cinematographer), KK Barrett (production designer) and Eric Zumbrunnen (editor)–got together for a public two hour talk. But tonight it happened.
