ICON’s hot Webzine Word
On Monday, June 30, ICON held a hot party to celebrate the second anniversary of it’s trend setting Webzine Word. When I say hot, I mean hot. Someone forgot to turn on the air conditioning in the Audart Gallery–an interior windowless space on 60 Broad St. They should’ve just passed out towels at the door ’cause the party was more like a suana than a schmooze. Word publisher Thomas Livacarri huddled with his wife in the the single room equipped with a tiny room unit air conditioner hoping feel a puff of cool air as it blew past. About the only people dressed for the sweltering occasion were the scantily clad go-go girls dancing on raised cubes to cheesey mid-sixties fake pop music in the front room. Take that Razorfish!
