Just going through the Velocity film and
image archives with media director, Hiromi, and found this commercial, which featured
Velocity Circus/ Arts & Entertainment advertising San Francisco as a destination for the arts. It
was broadcast aboard every international flight coming to San Francisco as well as by several visitor
and convention bureaus at the time. I recall receiving lots of phone
calls from enthusiasts who saw us aboard their flights.
Check it out:

Whirling Dervish of San Francisco
I personally had a cameo as the dervish in the
spectacular courtyard of one of my favorite San Francisco monuments and fine arts museums,
The Palace of the legion of Honor
Here is a short montage from the shoot:

And whirling at my favorite SF Monument, the Palace of Fine Arts, which at the time housed the
interactive physics museum:
