I’ve made a new short live cinema piece for Pop-Up Magazine, and we will be doing shows in the next few weeks in LA, SF, NYC and DC. Pop-Up is a “live magazine” – i.e. a bunch of different writers, filmmakers, artists, etc doing short presentations. My piece is about Casa Sanchez, a little burrito place in SF that during the ‘90s did a promotion: if you got the Casa Sanchez logo tattooed anywhere on your body, you could have free food for life!
