I think Nuit Blanche is a fascinating idea -- a massive arts and culture festival, one night only, 7pm to 7am -- but, sadly, I'm pretty certain I'm too lame to stay up overnight, let alone be active and interested. We'll see. Some friends are going, starting at midnight, so maybe I can convince myself that I'm a night person long enough to join them for some of it.

Still, this is one of the reasons I love living in Toronto. I love that stuff like this goes on, even if I don't personally take part. Big cities are great for that -- no interest is too small.

(Oh, man, there's some truly interesting stuff happening! The secret city tours are calling to me. And artist-run transit! Maybe I'll break through the sleep barrier after all...)

I know -- the tours and stuff totally fascinate me. Not so sure about the installation where you're supposed to lie on beds and "cuddle with your neighbours" to look at the art. :D But! Secret city tours! Gah.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I don't want to get that close to my neighbours.

If we are very strong perhaps we will simply not get off the subway on our way home on Saturday night!

You know, it's a good thing you said that, because I totally thought it was Friday night. I would have been wandering the street, looking for art!

I heard a radio spot for Nuit Blanche when I was in town last weekend. I'd love to come in and check it out, but alas I haven't the time. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that something similar will happen in Montreal.
