Triptych Bistro Presents......

"TilaTila" on Saturday nights!
(That's Swahili for well mixed...)

The scunderground collective is manifesting a more
eclectic mix to the bay area cultural scene. This
will include dj'ing with an emphasis on challenging
the genre specific, the latest in visual art, and
amazing, progressive food.

It's all going down every Saturday night at a fairly
new bistro in the city of SF called "Triptych". You
can check out this beautiful indoor/outdoor space at
their website here:

So we have myself, Dj ABC on the dub plates, spinning
the vinyl in the styles of soul, funk, downtempo,
instrumental hip-hop, dub, broken-beat, acid-jazz,
afro beat, deep house, ambient, and a few other
experimental surprises. Always featuring unique tracks only
to be heard at Triptych.

And in the kitchen we have another scunderground
member, Chef Craig Howell, spinning an eclectic mix of
California cuisine, Mediterranean, French, and other
spontaneousness on the heated plates. If you've never
tasted his mix before, and you love progressive
cooking, he will blow you away. The folks who have
made it up to SF so far were well rewarded by a
quality of culinary skills you will be hard pressed to find
in the bay area.

And finally, spinning the images on the walls we
have two brand new artists....

JENNALEX, aka Jennifer Alexander, is an artist living
and working in San Francisco. Originally from the
sandhills of North Carolina, she spent her childhood
wandering through pine forests along the Cape Fear
River, staring at the sun out of the window of her
classroom, and watching the grass grow threw cracks in
the pavement. These early influences still persist in
her work to this day as evidenced in her fascination
with nature, the human impact on it, and the way light
works with different elements. She continued her
education at the North Carolina School of the Arts,
where she focused her attention on Scene Design for
Theatre, and continued to develop an interest in
written and spoken words. After she received her BFA,
she packed all her belongings in a covered wagon
(actually a white pickup truck with a camper shell)
and headed west to California, where she continued
honing her craft through years of figure drawing and
various digital explorations, until she became
fascinated with plastic and began combining epoxy
resin castings with light. Her passion for poetry,
nature, philosophy and music are main influences in
her work. Recently, she developed a strong interest in
drawing portraits. Focusing her eye on humanity and
drawing out the deeper subconscious levels of her
subjects are what drive her in this process. Her muse
has led her to explore many different mediums, from
ink, watercolor, and pastels, to video, mobiles,
converted chainsaws, and epoxy resin. www.jennalex.com

and Randy Clark,

"I began shooting photos as a boy in the 1960s. In
1966 my father (an excellent photographer, himself)
gave me a 35mm single-lens reflex camera, and I have
used that medium ever since, with the addition of a
digital camera in 2002.

In high school, I studied composition, print-making,
and photo essays with Tim Wilbers, who now teaches
photography and animation at the University of Dayton,
Ohio. That is the extent of my formal training so far,
though I've learned much from other photographers—both
their pictures and their writings.

People, objects, scenery: any of these can excite me
by their variety, by the mystery of this world, and by
the things that light can do. I will be exhibiting 18
prints of my photos this month of December"
