Companions in misfortunes is a two-night screening event by De:Formal and LA Artcore at Brewery Annex space in Lincoln Heights. It features a group of international artists working in video and merging the physical and the digital. Taken as a whole, the event mashes up self-described introverts' minds and their intrusive thoughts.

All introverts are invited and extroverts are also welcome to join. Our minds wander into dark places when we are alone at night. Companions in Misfortunes will only open after sundown. Breath in and breathe out. You can smell the darkness and the sweetness in the air. Now, it is in you.

Curators cannot be found during the opening, they are in fact the bartenders serving drinks with AR filters. Featuring AR works by Nicoleta Mureş , Stacie Ant, Pau Jiménez  and Vitória Cribb.

14 Video works by  Carla  Gannis, Stacie Ant, XUXA SANTAMARIA ( Sofia Córdova + Matthew Gonzalez Kirkland ), Sid and Geri, Maya Ben David, Natasha Tontey, Lee Eun-sol, Hana Yoo, Diana Gheorghiu, Bahareh Khoshooee, Libbi Ponce, Yoshie Sakai, Faith Holland and Cultural Policy (Alice Scope and Snizhana Chernetska)
