House Party. (Inspired by Betty Freeman's home)
step 1. Purchase Dan Flavin neon sculpture. (go here),
or( here for less...), or (here)
step 2. Find a good corner with a plug close by.
(Extension cords across a dance floor are a pain, and dangerous!)
step 3. Plug it in, feel the glow. (read more about glow here)
(Note: Close mini blinds, to intensify the art.)
step 4. Pour killer cocktails.
step 5. Listen to Linger and Quiet's new mix. (Invite people like this guy, here.)
step 6. Dance your face off (deep bass and neon are a good mix.)
step 7. Create chill out room, with good art. i.e., roy lichtenstein.
(buy here....) Note: matching pillows to art intensifies art!
step 8. Call Lindsay, and tell her to bring these..
step 9. Let the party spill out into a driveway/lawn, like this one... (aka the brick house.here)
Note to self: Call Olafur and begin locating this (here, here, and here...) for the next party. Summer 2010.
