If you have any interest in doing surveillance on me, here are my whereabouts for the next two and a half days. I’ll be posting as often as possible throughout the festival—and if you see me, please come say hello. The delicious illustration to the left is by Newyorkette, a.k.a. Carolita Johnson, and the much lusher and more detailed version (with trademark CAJ) is here.
