Video: Silent Disco dance party at Anchorage Museum

Anchorage artist Buck Walsky re-created his Burning Man art installation on the front lawn of the Anchorage Museum Friday night. Beach Front Silent Disco is a dance party like no other. DJ Alex the Lion played music that was wirelessly transmitted to 200 headphones that people could rent for the evening to dance. To a passerby, the event looks like an odd miming performance with people shuffling around in frigid temperatures under sea-creature-like blue lights. It was a surreal and joyful event to celebrate winter, sponsored by Polar Nights at the Anchorage Museum.
