This weekend they're kicking off the Zero1 festival in San Jose. They're holding a drum-circle to start the dedication ceremony along with the presentation of Homouroboros. Homouroboros is a zeotrope, first displayed at Burningman last year. It's an interactive art installation using life-sized monkeys swinging around a tree. When it gets up to speed, and they hit it with strobe lights, the monkeys animate in real-life, and appear to swing from branch to branch. It's an incredibley impressive display.
