(2008-06-02) Hackers Should Go To Kids Shows

Went went to see IJK at the New Victory Theater yesterday. Each play in this series is inspired by a simple geometric concept. More or Less Infinity is about one-dimetional lines, Plan B (which was presented at the New Victory in 2004) examines a two-dimentional plane, and IJK focuses on the three-dimensional cube. With a distinctive, artistic aesthetic, the company develops an exquisite and unusual performance out of a basic mathematical idea. Loads of fun. It made me realize that Hacker-s without kids don't find out about this kinda cool stuff. I strongly recommend you look around in your city for kids shows that involve acrobatics, gymnastics, juggling, etc. It's a good brain-tickle, and usually reasonably priced.
