"Inadvertent Ritual" was created as the visual backdrop for a performance art piece by Rachel Znerold and Lula Mae Day that debuted in the SFMOMA New Media Lounge during Yerba Buena's "Bright Lights, Little City" 2011 Event. "Inadvertent Ritual" is inspired by the rites and rhythms of San Francisco and was accompanied by a repetitive post-modern Sun Salutation movement sequence.
The video piece is comprised of original stop-motion video footage, as well as found footage of early San Francisco, news coverage, group gatherings, promotional San Francisco videos, old movies and animations. "Inadvertent Ritual" features music by Midwest Product, Arto Lindsay and tUnE-yArDs.
