Visual/Sound/Walls: Opening Night Party

Various
Running Time:150:00 minutes
Event Date(s)
9:00 PM EST
Wednesday, November 8
CFCC Union Station

Kick off your Cucalorus by grabbing yourself a mix drank and enjoying yourself a music video mix of the best dang music videos produced on this whole dang planet while we project them onto every dang surface in the whole dang room while live performers mimic dance moves and lip sync song lyrics to create an interactive entertainment emersion that can’t be found anywhere else in this whole dang dimension. Pretty impressive run-on sentence, huh?  

The cherry on top of this party this year comes in the form of a performance from the angel-voiced, child of Wilmington, Sarah Kinlaw, who now lives in Brooklyn, NY, where she runs an artistic triathlon of directing videos, choreographing dance, and lending her incredible voice and songwriting skills to her band Softspot. Kinlaw will be providing the live vocals for Softspot’s gorgeous and thought provoking video for “Habits” and then closing out the evening with a set of songs that will be accompanied by video visuals provided by VJ MXL PXL.

And finally, as we all know, the Visual/Sound/Walls party can’t begin unless turned on by the power of a powerful wizard. Therefore, henceforth, this party will be emceed once again by none other than Magic Johnson, not the former basketball player and current STD survivor, Magic Johnson, but the Magic Johnson that’s a dang WIZARD!!!!!!!
