DESCRIPTION:The city spreads out before you. Rushing from point to point, lit by the 
 slow strobe of fluorescent buses and dark streets. Stumbling into 
 situations for a stranger’s signature. Fleeing unknown pursuers, 
 breathing hard, admiring the landscape and the multitude of worlds hidden 
 in it.\n\nFor one night, drop your relations, your work and leisure 
 activities, and all your usual motives for movement and action, and let 
 yourself be drawn by the attractions of the chase and the encounters you 
 find there.\n\nJourney to the End of the Night is a free streetgame that 
 will be played in the streets and parks of Oakland on Saturday, June 20th, 
 starting at 7pm in Mosswood Park (right by MacArthur BART). Players 
 sporting green ribbons will try to make it through a series of checkpoints 
 as quickly and as stealthily as possible, while avoiding being caught by 
 orange-ribboned chasers. The first player to reach the endpoint without 
 being tagged is the winner, though anyone who survives is deservedly 
 praised and feted at the end. Those who fall become chasers themselves, 
 rising to pursue their former friends and allies. Players may not use 
 skates, bikes, or cars, only their feet and public transportation.  Imagine 
 a nighttime race or dérive that keeps breaking out into games of tag or 
 hide and seek.\n\nThe game begins on Saturday, June 20th, at 7 PM at 
 Mosswood Park. Remember, no bicycles, no skates, no cars, no taxis. This 
 race is for you, your fellow players, and the city itself.  Wear 
 comfortable shoes, and consider bringing water.  The finish line will be by 
 Lake Merritt, a short walk from the 19th St. BART station.  For more info,
