> dragons is dedicated to the birthing of new and temporary creatures:
> equal-power situations in which audience members cooperate amongst
> themselves, building up fragile networks held together by such light things
> as skin contact, unfamiliar language, temporary logic, the spirit of
> celebration, and things that work but you don't know why. lucky dragons'
> sister projects include *sumi ink club <http://www.sumiinkclub.com/>*, a
> weekly collaborative drawing society, and *glaciers of nice<http://www.glaciersofnice.com/>
