LOST Party, that’s right, LOST Parrtayyyyy.

As many of you know, I partook in the LOST viral series that was featured on the website Damon, Carlton, and a Polar Bear. The series was for the hit TV show phenomenon LOST and involved sixteen artists creating posters that represented aspects of the show.

The posters were released one per week and preceded by clues that would reveal where the poster would debut, giving any savvy Lost fan the upper edge in collecting the whole series. The show having such rabid fans, the artists being largely high profile, and the coverage going viral, it is safe to say this series caught fire. Much of the series progression, the fan reactions, and other details can be seen at the LOST Args.

The last poster was revealed on 12/15/09 at the insanest party in town, the Lost Underground Art Project at 1988 Gallery.

All sixteen posters and new original art could be seen at the show. The gallery was packed shoulder to shoulder and people had been waiting outside since 5 pm on the previous day. People came from all over, even as far as Iowa and who knows where else to attend this awesome event.

Daniel Danger was one of the sixteen artists and he flew in from Massachusetts and stayed with me for a bit in order to make an appearance. We had good times because we are BFF’s, check it out. We rolled up together and hit the LOST Underground Art Project at 1988 early because we had to do interviews.

When Daniel and I tried to enter the gallery, we had to walk the line of Lost fans and they spotted Daniel and myself immediately. From then on, it was hours of interviews, meeting fans, signing autographs, and just being part of something spectacular.

I got to meet Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, as well as various other members of the LOST team. They were all as excited as me and Daniel were and were awesome enough to sign a copy of my poster for me. The entire time, the 1988 team were working at a frenzied pace, chihuahua style, rushing around and through people as shirts, art, and merch was flying off shelves.

Here are the interviews, news reports, and videos of the event, as many as I can find. If you have more links, please post in the comments.

I am so glad I got a chance to be a part of the insanity and got to mix it up with the “Losties”. Thanks to all the folks who worked so hard to put this together and for everyone who showed up or added to the fever of this wild experience. I have a feeling that even though this event is over, the Losties will still be lifelong friends and remember that magical night for the rest of their lives.
