ARTISTS/ PERFORMANCES: A collaboration amongst some of NYC's most colorful people with Flora art by Greg Skolozdra, flying, glowing Pterodactyls by Brooklyn Airdrome, prehystoric visuals by Metal Tiger, VJ Lenka, Jason Weston and Max Nova, cave painting by Kritta and Jimsu, Faux-Flames by Mike Guyver, woodland photobooth by Joe Che & Page Not Found, Mastadonia by Costume Jim, Pygmalion & Galatea by Faux Maux & Big Mike, Evolving Ema: Extinction by ShiZaru.Zoe, Smilodon Fatailis Aerialis by Kimmy Dudek, LED Hula-Hooping by Sandhi Ferreira, Yabba-Dabba-Hoop by Soyboy and whatever YOU contribute to this participatory arts event.
DRESS: Horns, tusks, woolly mammal, dinosaur, urban kaveman or anything extinct (with horns!). An annual spring bacchanal - the idea for Horned Ball is to wear horns of any type whether you want to play along with this year's sub-theme (paleolithikk) or not. Springtime arrives and the animals are stirring!
COMPETITIONS: MC'd by Dr. Adventure--- Get ready for the Drag Your Mate by the Hair Races where you will be challenged to drag another around the venue (with a harness that simulates hair-dragging) in an effort to complete a number of tasks along the way... There will also be a Hunter & Gatherer (scavenger) Hunt where participants will gather photos as they hunt "prey"-- animals, vegetables and virgins who on the 'endangered species' list. For both, extra points for style, dementia and photographic brilliance. Speed not a factor. All competitors should arrive before 11pm and seek out Dr. Adventure. If you are coming as a unique creature or character and would like to be hunted please contact kult@kostumekult.com .
FEATURING: Horn and prosthetic brow-ridge vending and multiple rooms of interactive entertainment... Dance by the fire and bear yourself to the fertility goddess!
INSPIRATION: This year's theme was inspired by an article in the NY Times entitled "The New Age Caveman in the City" about modern people living "paleolithic lifestyles" with ancient diet regimens and "primal"workouts that "include scooting around the underbrush on all fours, leaping between boulders, playing catch with stones", and other activities replicating "how a prehistoric person might have fled from a mastodon".
