Sabbia a Tonnellate (Sand by the ton). On July 11th, 2009 Big Art Studios in Oakland, California had a fundraiser with a grand opening warehouse bash (formerly the American Steel Warehouse in West Oakland); this was one "big ass" art party with all the trimmings: multiple live bands, DJs, dancers, acrobats, lounge acts, large scale kinetic sculptures and yes real sand by the ton. I believe they actually hauled in over 200 tons of sand for the party. The opening title shot on this video shows one of several sand sculptures that were made just for this party.

Did I mention that I recommend 'cranking' up the volume?
Got Headphones?


This was shot with a Nikon Coolpix S52c pocket camera, edited with Windows Movie Maker version 5.1.

Music by Vaypid Schmuey (Sabbia a Tonnellate): Fender Stratocaster, PRS Soapbar II, Zoom G2.1u effects pedal, Yamaha S08 synthesizer, a Steinberger Spirit Bass, and the ever faithful Alesis SR-16 drum machine recorded onto a Tascam 2488 digital 24 track recorder, mixed and then imported and trimmed with Audacity software for Windows Movie Maker.
