DJab: I See The Light Event
So the DJab special event at Simons was Saturday. I passed by to have a look at what was on display. They’ve actually cleared a small patch of retail space in the men’s section to make way for a color changing DJ booth, flanked by two sets of painted canvases.
On one side you had a couple of the artists painting a replica of their printed t-shirt version, on the other there were outlined illustrations in black and white. The curious (including myself) were invited to actually color in the illustrations with paint markers of flashy purple, pink and blue colors. I participated in coloring one of the flowers on the panda filled canvas (subliminal message that Dahlia is a flower). It was fun, silly and interactive.
I bought the DJab CD because I digged the sound and took a few photos. It wasn’t particularly a party per se, but it did attract curious onlookers to check it out. They were also selling all sorts of DJ-related goods like headphones and more listening stations on the inside of the store.
Not sure if the guys digged the t-shirts since it was too early to say if the event was a success, however it did make for an interesting shopping day.
