Hub A
#12 Everybody Loves You 2
Daisuke Takeya - Toronto, Ontario
Inspired by years of hearing his Japanese name mispronounced by everybody, Daisuke Takeya has created a unique interactive video installation that will encourage you to think of what it means to love and to be loved within a rather funny Japanese pop manner.
#20 Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO)
End of the Party Party
On October 8, 2007, the AGO will close for eight months to reinstall their galleries, so for Scotiabank Nuit Blanche they are throwing an "end of the party" party. The DJ has saved the best songs for last and everybody is feeling good.
#13 Midnight Mirage
For the duration of the event the artist will be serving a humble Serbian "bread & bean" dish to a circulating 12-member audience in an effort to stimulate cultural and social exchange. An all-night ritual of food consumption and conversation.
#10 WHAT WILL YOU DO?
Nina Czegledy, Greg Judelman, Deborah Hession and Daniel Barber - Toronto, Ontario
An interactive installation displays the question "What will you do (to stop climate change)?" and invites the general public to declare their actions in defence of global warming. Responses are by SMS text message to a specified local phone number and appear within seconds as part of a projected real-time visualization. This project explores the potential of participatory art in public space to convert individual awareness to collective action on the climate change crisis.


Participate in this unique photo-based installation by photographing the city from the top of the CN Tower and other vantage points - then submit your photos on-line. Limited availability to the top of the CN Tower through pre-registration only at www.cntower.ca/nuitblanche.
Zone CCity Glow

Chiho Aoshima's imagination spreads like moss. Travelling playfully and unstoppably through seductive and sinister settings, it gives an account that traverses geographical and temporal confines. Scenes constantly unfold and emerge at the periphery of the frame.
#3 Locust
Noboru Tsubaki's lone, gargantuan Locust descends upon Lamport Stadium. Separated from its migratory swarm, its status as a remnant or threat of airborne plagues to come is unclear. Is this cute, colourful, cartoon-like insect a real threat or a personal omen? What is our crime and what is our defense? Do we take comfort in Liliputian safety? For how long will these ropes hold? For how long can we keep our fears at bay?
#4 Insomnosonic
Wyrd Visions
2:30am-3:30am
An oddly ceremonious, upbeat, contemplative, murky, deep, rich, percussive, spontaneous, meditative, trance-inducing, ambient, epic, musical experience. An eclectic mix of Toronto bands play through the night.
43:38:36.19N/79:25:19.89W °, 2007
Craig Walsh-Brisbane, Australia
A storefront fills with water, eventually populated by large, almost prehistoric fish that swim throughout. This dream-like vision comes to us through the manipulation of scale and subversion of architectural space and its function. Plates, dinner tables and party goers are denied their place. Observers take comfort and seek refuge out on the street, looking in.
못가본 곳이 너무 많아서 너무 아쉽다...12시간이 짧다는 걸 느낀 하루~
