GOLD RUSH! Art, Bars & Speculation is a 1-hour multi-media experience that explores the driving forces of gold, diversion and consumption in Vancouver since its early development. This site-specific walk invokes a unique blend of historical tour, performance art and virtual navigation. (www.themissguides.com).
Vancouver grew out of the Gold Rush of the late 19th Century, the frenzy of which was revisited in Expo ’86 of the following century. Similarly, the rush for gold before and during the 2010 Olympic Games shapes the city’s past, present and future. Using mobile technologies, the active body, and specific historical and contemporary locations, The Miss Guides will take participants through an engaging sensory experience that will deal with the complex relationships between Art, Bars & Speculation.
Highlights include: a unique audio sound collage, VIP access to some of the top galleries and art centres in the city, and an introduction to contemporary public art funded for the Games. To cap the evening off, guests will toast the city at one of Vancouver’s hottest new nightspots. The role of the artist is about prospecting the past, sifting the presence of the everyday and speculating on the future. Come walk the minefields with The Miss Guides.
Please Note: All walks are approx. 1-hour long. Ticket price includes a drink.

Naoko Takahashi drank an extract distilled from Japanese giant killer hornets (Vespa Mandarina Japonica) just before she won the women’s marathon at the 2000 Sydney Olympics.
Marathonologue, an interdisciplinary production inspired by this ultra-marathon runner energized by the killer hornet extract, combines highland bagpipe, Japanese taiko and Balinese gamelan music by composers Michael O’Neill, Boyd Seiichi Grealy and I Wayan Sudirana, in live synchronization with computer-animated projections by Kenneth Newby and Aleksandra Dulic. The production brings to life the interplay between the physical landscape and a runner’s internal ‘mindscape’ as it develops and transforms in the experience of running a global marathon.
Marathonolgue zooms in on the creative powers of imagination catalyzed by motor-rhythmic physical exertion, the enzymes of hornet juice, the landscape, and the solitude of long distance running. Performing live with a tri-cultural ensemble of 7 musicians, Newby and Dulic use digital animation techniques to produce a startling array of images, envisioning both the runner and the hornets’ chameleon-like transformations, and reflecting the terrain and human physical/ cultural differences encountered. Image and sound combine to transport the audience to a realm of heightened imagination.
