The Great Twin Cities B.U.G. Out
While chomping on yummy home cut fries the other night at the Edina Grill, I noticed the large advertisement on the back of The Rake Magazine for an upcoming event being organized by the design institute called B.U.G – or – Big Urban Game. Naturally, I checked out the website. Now, perhaps I haven’t had enough coffee yet this morning, but I swear I’ve read the thing like three times now and I have no clue as to what it’s all about. It looks to me like a bad reality television show disguised as community event disguised as. . .uh, design? A Road Rules Minneapolis meets Philippe Starck masquerading as a community organizer? Curious. Maybe the whole thing is mysterious and ambiguous for a reason. Maybe Chris Rock will be MC’ing the race. I may have to check it out.
