"If you wandered the streets of Oakland or Berkeley, California from the mid-1970s through 2013, you likely saw one of Frank Moore's performance flyers on a telephone pole. The Temescal period is so named because of the ongoing performance series Moore did at the Temescal Art Center in Oakland, California from 2009 until his death in October 2013. At Temescal Art Center, he found a long-term home for his performance work. He called these performances ""experiments in experience/participation performance"". Each performance was a 3-hour improv happening with the audience as the cast. Anyone attending one of these events witnessed a master performer at the peak of his skills. Frank could quickly assess the audience, draw them into the performance, and create an intimate space where everyone felt safe and connected in a way they were not accustomed to, but that felt ""normal"" and that also exposed the isolation many feel in our current culture. This book presents any available written documentation, paraphernalia along with a selection of photographs from this performance series. Also included are the other various performances by Moore during this period, including the POW!POW!POW! Festivals and four performances at the Center for Sex & Culture in San Francisco. This volume closes with, ""What A Life! A Frank Moore Biography"". It features a collection of writings by people who knew Frank that were requested by the editors for use in a possible biography."
