Bushwick Tales: My First House Party - Daniela Capistrano

DanielaCapistrano

February 22, 2009

On Saturday I hosted my first house party since moving to NY. Attendees were friends from Afro-Punk and random nice people off the street! We listened to music, livestreamed on a private channel, workshopped some material, ate a lot of snacks and had lots of great convos.

Kaos Blac beat me to this by writing about the party this morning. ^_^ He was a great parlor games manager and candid photographer. The best part about last night was being around a bunch of interesting people committed to their different art projects. It was also great to debut my new Mario Bros. decals. It's a bit of a benchmark for me to finally be able to accommodate guests; I've been a bit of a rolling stone. But I have been in my place now since Sept '07, so once I got the couch it was only a matter of time before I would want people over to sit on it. edit: Here is some video Kaos Blac aka Bryan shot. He caught me eating his quesadilla at the party.

You can watch the entire video below. Thanks, Bryan!
