On a Saturday at Ocean Beach, a unique art event turned the sandy shore into a canvas filled with intricate designs, created by locals wielding rakes. The day featured organized sand art, including geometric patterns and positive messages like "Be Kind." The atmosphere was lively but ephemeral, as attendees navigated the art with care. Andrés Amador, the event organizer, embodied a blend of hippie values and technology skepticism, attracting a diverse crowd looking for a creative outlet amidst the usual San Francisco bustle.
As I walked down to the beach I was greeted by a 10-year-old with the presence of an established 40-somethings man - a level of maturity that I have yet to see in the tech bro culture that runs this city.
Amador is the prototype of the San Franciscan hippie who begrudgingly dabbled in tech - just enough to know he despises it.
