I went to two satellite shows during Art Basel Weekend: Art Miami and Scope. Here are 3 videos I took on Thursday, December 1st (about a minute each). Watch them so you can lie and say you attended when you are at holiday cocktail parties. Consider these the Cliff Notes of satellite shows. I can't believe about 80% of Miami Herald readers said they are not going to ANY Art Basel events; Philistines. I hope some of you change your mind and go this weekend. This is among the best entertainment Miami Beach and the City of Miami has ever hosted.
Link to Scope Satellite Fair people/art watching Note, the entire venue floor was covered in plywood. It was insane considering the size of the tent.

They had a poured concrete floor, but were also in a giant air conditioned tent.

The saw-horses you will see on the left, they were covered in fur...part of the art.

Last night I was jogging on the beach after dark and happened to see the "3D art projection" on the front of the 10-story Tides Hotel -and it was astounding. Ive never seen anything like it - amazing graphics, changing colors, movement, depth... even worked with the window shapes.... It showed me (normally a Philistine I admit it) that this Art Basel is really first class and worth seeing.
I love the music you picked to go along with the video. went downtown to a show at Adrienne Arscht and traffic coming from the north was horrible around the Design District. Guess it's you artsy folks.
It is worth seeing. Imagine you could see the Superbowl for about $20. This is the Superbowl of modern art.
