WonderRoot has teamed up with performance artist/rockstar Evan “Snake the Body” Fillon to create an interactive performance spectacle for the Atlanta Streets Alive festival on May 20th 2012.
Mr. Fillon has worked with a diverse cast of artists from many disciplines to create an alegorical anarcho-poetic adventure sport called “καλλίστῃ” (pronounced: kallistēi) or, “To the Fairest”…a reference to the golden apple of Eris and the mythological episode that led to the Trojan War.
The performance invites festival-goers to either join a team and play ball with the artists or cheer from the sidelines as spectators of the chaotic ballgame.
The game resembles a fusion of kickball, dodgeball, competitive dance, basketball, and trivia. The artists have devised a fixed set of rules as well as a process for changing, re-interpreting, and flat-out breaking said rules. The game will be refereed by Evan Fillon, frontman of the local sarcadelic punk band The Dandyls.
