Pangaea Take Two (of Three)

This blog post will be expanded up greatly, but for right now only the photos AND A PLEA FOR HELP.

The sheets got a little shuffled around last night (i was drunk) and so i don't know who was kissing whom :)
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get in touch and let me know who you are and who you were kissing.

It was a night of unity at Duke last night. The Pangaea event brought us all together and focused on togetherness.
It was also held in the library! 

I, along with my amazing assistant Jeanie (thank you so much!), stood in the center walkway between the two libraries where people were shuffling back and forth, catching some cool night air to take comfort from the sweaty dancing and drinking. Crowds of spectators were watching as complete strangers came together for a brief, and, as you will see, not so brief kiss. There was almost a manic energy of the Kissing Strange project last night as people were encouraging one another to kiss and Jeanie was handling all the admin as I snapped photos and talked about the project. 

I am sure none of them expected that an evening that focused on togetherness would be taken to another level but I am grateful to each and every one of you who stopped to be in a photo and hope to hear from you soon!
