What:
A Nomadic Happening is crossing the U.S. by train. The journey and the art is being documented on instagram and vimeo.

From 6 – 28 September 2013, a train will travel from New York City to San Francisco, making nine stops at train stations across the country.

Organised by artist Doug Aitken, Station to Station will connect leading figures and underground creators from the worlds of art, music, food, literature and film for a series of cultural interventions and site-specific happenings. The train itself is designed as a moving, kinetic light sculpture and will broadcast unique content and experiences to a global audience.

Why we like it:
For a brief moment, the most interesting place in the country will be a moving target. So far there have been performances by Patti Smith, YOSHIMIO, Eleanor Friedberger and art by Kenneth Anger, Urs Fischer, Ernesto Neto and many more. See the full list of participants here.
