A little trend-spotting — Visual artists in these parts are doing something dancers have done for a while: Collecting as friends/colleagues to throw their own micro events. The latest was VD09 — part art showcase, part party — this past Saturday in the Northrup King Building. 3-Minute Egg introduces you to the makers and shakers, including the event’s producers — an artist and marketer who go by Two Betties.

    Hey I was wondering I you could tag me in this since my piece is the first one you show? Thanks! Sorry I didn’t meet you that night . . .

  3. Hey Matt, thanks for the film. I’m one of the owners of Locus, the architecture studio across the hall from VD09 in the Northrup King. It was great to see the show after the fact, since we couldn’t make it. 3-minute egg is great! Keep up the good work.
