LIVE MUSIC: AK & Her Kalashnikovs
This is a unique and original musical ensemble. There is the diverse instrumentation --tinwhistles, accordions, violins, stand up bass, guitar, percussion and percussion that thinks it's a Ringling Brothers Circus. There are the Kalashnikovs, intense, virtuosic and inventive. And rhythmically tight as a drum.
The repertoire is a collection of sharp left turns and foreign tongues. From Gypsy love songs to Russian lullabies to Serbian ballads to Spanish Copla to French pop to what sounds suspiciously like rock n roll..
But the heart and soul is AK herself, Alissa Kueker. Her voice is, by turns, angelic and devilish, profoundly serious and as playful as the first days of love. It's rich rough coloratura contralto caresses and seduces and, when necessary, belts like a WWF Cage Fight.

Identity: Minds Behind Masks
Douglas Campbell / Co-Founder & Curator, Mindshare LA
Join Mindshare and friends as we celebrate our 5th annual masquerade! This special event will explore elements that pertain to our identity, from the physical, psychological, technological, ethical, political, spiritual and scientific. Why have masks played such a large role throughout culture? How can we play with our identities for fun... or for profession? What other characters might we harbor inside ourselves? After the talks we'll launch into an after party with music, art & more!
Douglas is a community constructor, experience engineer and tuxedo traveler. He co-founded Mindshare LA in 2006 as well as the interactive collective Syyn Labs in 2009. He likes volunteering at an organic farm and wearing tuxedos for charitable escapades.

The Grey Area of Identity
Dale A. Kelly / Kelley & Associates Investigations
What does "identity" mean from a law enforcement prospective? What happens to that meaning as agents embark on undercover operations? What sort of training do agents undergo to prepare themselves for criminal investigation and special operations and even more importantly how do they recover from their experiences? We'll answer these questions by exploring numerous undercover operations both in the Bureau and in private investigation.
Dale A. Kelley has over 35 years of investigation experience in the public and private sectors. Kelley is a former FBI agent having served in the Seattle, WA, Chicago, IL and Dallas, TX FBI Divisions. His FBI experience was all criminal investigations and he was a member of the SWAT teams in each Division. Kelley also worked for the State of California Peace Officers Standards and Training Agency, Department of Justice, and the Corporate Security Department of the Boeing Company in Seattle, WA
