7. Tales of the San Francisco Cacophony Society
B efore the Internet vomited headlines by the millisecond and
turned the minutia of a million boring Facebook lives into news, we were
left the privilege of mystery.
This was something The San Francisco Cacophony Society gave me in
spades. Over the years, I would catch glimpses, collect pieces of a puzzle I
was slowly assembling—a car crushed flat by an earthquake miraculously
tooling down Golden Gate, toasters glued to buildings, news-clips of mock
protests and costumed impostors, flyers for strange art spectacles.
Now the puzzle is assembled in this gorgeous graphic collection, a book
every lover of eccentricity and enemy of the status quo should enjoy.
—Margaret Cho
8. Cacophony events could range from something as simple
as climbing the Golden Gate Bridge or having a discussion
over drinks about a movie seen together, to something
as elaborate as The Atomic Café—an event involving
a hundred bedraggled “nuclear holocaust survivors”
mounting elaborate costumed rituals throughout the
bowels of an abandoned toothpaste factory.
Yes… Cacophony was that strange.
9. The Cacophony Society is a randomly gathered network of
individuals united in the pursuit of experiences beyond the
pale of mainstream soceity through subversion, pranks,
art, fringe explorations and meaningless madness.

award at the 13th
annual Tezuka Osamu
Cultural Prize
Set in 1920s Japan, the story follows
the twisted path of failed novelist
Hitomi, who bears an uncanny
resemblance to the son of a rich
industrialist.
Hitomi learns of the rich man’s
sudden death and creates a desperate
plan, successfully impersonating the
now-dead son. Hitomi takes over
all aspects of the industrialist’s life,
including his company, his fortune,
and eventually his wife. There he
redirects the family’s wealth to his
own perverse aims.
On a remote and mysterious island,
he builds for himself a playground of
hedonistic excess—replete with wa-
terfalls, grand palaces, and gardens,
and decadent feasts, orgies, and dark
secrets.

NEW • CHUCK SPERRY
Never known for following the consensus of any
art establishment, Chuck Sperry has a strict loy-
alty to his craft, and has become a leading inno-
vator of the rock poster art form. His suspicion
and disdain for mainstream American politics
often characterizes his approach to making art.
With a sincere dedication to a broad public
audience, Sperry reflects a social consicousness
and draws much from the immediate urban
environment. —Renee de Cossio, curator,
San Francisco Museum of
Modern Art
Over 60 posters from the career of rock
poster legend Chuck Sperry, plus a lengthy
interview with the artist. Includes studio
shots and a short Sperry bio.

49. HEDGEHOG IN THE FOG
Hedgehog in the Fog is an internationally acclaimed story
about the adventures of a philosophical little Hedgehog on
his way to meet with his friend Bear. Along the way Hedge-
hog enters into a mysterious fog in which he encounters a
horse, a dog, an owl, and a fish.
The book is based on Francesca Yarbusova’s sketches for the
award-winning animated film directed by Yuri Norstein. In
2003, an international film jury in Tokyo declared Hedgehog
in the Fog to be the best animated film of all time.
“Norstein’s films are magical and
atmospheric, lovingly and master-
fully executed. His story-telling and
illustration style is earthy and rich
in symbols which are beautiful in
themselves – but one senses there
is a lot more hidden behind them.” Hedgehog in the Fog
