Deets: Inflatable Planet presents a night of mind blowing balloon art from around the world! Balloon artist Addi Somekh and photographer Charlie Eckert traveled to 35 countries, spontaneously making balloon crowns for people and documenting their reactions in a kind of rolling investigation into the nature of joy and laughter. They will share their photos and stories on stage, while twisting balloons live for the audience.
Bonus! - Addi plays a bass made entirely of balloons, and his band “Unpopable” will perform with special guest Reggie Watts.
The launch of “Inflatable Planet” highlights three decades of Addis’ work!
Addi considers himself to be an expert on joy! He even teaches a class on this at UC Santa Cruz, where he examines critical thinking in a course called “Meaning, Paradox and Love.” He is also a natural public speaker and humorist as can be seen in his TedX Talk, “Balloon Art and the Mysterious Nature of Joy.”
Who You May Spot: Addi Somekh - Balloon Artist, Reggie Watts - Musician
