It is a homecoming tonight at Eutectic. Kat and Roger lived in Portland, now they are in the LA area. Roger was an early employee of Mudshark Studios adjacent to Eutectic.
They make functional art pots, they have production lines cast by Mudshark, and they have a line of tile at Pratt and Larsen. Roger makes the shape and Kat glazes the pattern. It is reminiscent of SW native pottery patterns or mid-20th century design. It will probably be collected hence.

If you like your music ambient, Ambient Church touches down here tonight. Artists are Chihei Hatakeyama (Japan) and Patricia Wolf (US). They are accompanied by ambient video projection mapping on the interior of the church. From what I've seen from recent electronic music concerts, trucker hats and cute pointy wool beanies are out now finally.
