Free Advice
by Calcagno Cullen

Ever have questions about life, love, or what to do next Tuesday evening?  At Free Advice get the answers you need.  Vintage telephones containing audio "advice" files will speak to you directly, telling you what is needed to achieve everything you've ever wanted.  If those don't provide the answers you seek, a real, live, in-person artist will personally guide you through life's mysteries, offering remedies for your most profound and mundane problems.

Rat Race
by PAR Projects

Win smiles and prizes by racing against your friends amongst artist-inspired, scaled-down, Cincinnati landmarks in rather-mousy, remote control vehicles. As you zoom through the streets, your prize is the cheese. This is our Rat Race.

Art and Music Box
by Emily Miller

Come join an interactive art piece as it evolves throughout MPMF. To start, blank walls begging to be painted, get yourself a dollop of paint, and make your mark. As the walls become full, the art spills out, surrounding the truck as new surfaces emerge to paint.

Magnetic Force
by The Loose Parts Project

The Loose Parts Project presents: Magnetic Force- a moveable, interactive magnetic sculpture.  'Loose parts' are materials that can be moved, built upon, combined and designed in endless ways.  This installation will utilize metal objects and re-use materials to engage participants in a creative play experience.  

Improv³
by OTR Improv

Stop by the OTRimprov Box Truck o' Imagination - we'll be playing short form and long form games inspired by audience suggestions, and conducting on-the-spot improv workshops. You wanna get close to the behind-the-scenes action? It doesn't get any closer than this. 

The Hyperbolic Healing House
by Lucius Limited

The Hyperbolic Healing House is a serene psychedelic oasis in the midst of a raucous urban music festival. A pilgrimage to this biomorphic micro-temple baptizes us with GOOD VIBEZ, renews the senses and spirit, and transports us to a more enlightened astral plane.

Dance Madness
by Golden Brown Enterprises

Sometimes the music just moves you.  Golden Brown Enterprises presents a shadow dance event. Using light projection and music videos, festival goers will be compelled to show their best and silliest dance moves, watch their shadows mimic the movement and groove to great music.
