An event at Ocean Beach drew a crowd creating impressive sand art, including intricate geometric patterns and designs. The atmosphere resembled a crop circle, with beachgoers carefully maneuvering around the temporary art. A young usher, Kavi Amador, helped attendees connect with his father, Andrés Amador, a San Franciscan unhappy with the tech world. Andrés had previously worked in IT after studying Environmental Science and serving in the Peace Corps, showcasing a balance between creativity and tech aversion.
The vibe last Saturday was crop circle. A mass of people congregated on the beach with rakes in hand, creating some of the best and most organized sand art I've ever seen.
The patterns included spirals, peace signs, and sunrays stretched across the shore, anchored by a message: 'Be Kind.' Beachgoers wove through the designs, careful but inevitably disruptive.
Amador is the prototype of the San Franciscan hippie who begrudgingly dabbled in tech - just enough to know he despises it.
Twenty-five years ago, after studying Environmental Science and doing a Peace Corps stint in Ecuador, he was working at the IT department of a national bank, 'hating every second of it.'
