Seth John and Sean Deyoe became friends in high school, where they shared an interest in activities such as “Philosophy Seminar,” “Writing Workshop,” and “Lunch.” After graduation, they each went their separate ways, as people do. Time passed, as it does. Now they are both in Los Angeles and are both launching websites. And this is a party to celebrate that fact. Each will give a short presentation of his work; in between will be a screening of Injected with a Poison, the fung fu movie made in high school by Deyoe, starring John; afterward a live performance by pop sensation Cookie Jar. Refreshments served throughout.

Betalevel member Sean Deyoe is a designer, artist, and writer, who produces work under the guise of The Royal Academy of Nuts + Bolts. He was Senior Graphic Designer at the Hammer Museum and sometime prior to that worked at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis. He holds an MFA from California Institute of the Arts and a BFA from Rhode Island School of Design. His website is TheRoyalAcademy.org.

Seth John is a postdoctoral scholar at the California Institute of Technology studying trace-metal isotopes in the oceans. He recently completed his PhD at MIT with a thesis entitled “Marine Biogeochemistry of Zinc Isotopes.” His current interests are Fe isotopes, biological fractionation of Fe isotopes upon cell-surface reduction, and virus-metal interactions. His website is SethJohn.com.

Mike Greiner will not be in attendance.
