	Interview with an Artist: Who Is Yuyanapaq? By Frederik Sisa @ 2:00 PM November 18, 2011 Found in: A & E While waiting outside the International City Theatre in Long Beach earlier this year, I noticed a CD case resting innocuously on one of the concrete picnic tables.

The CD was numbered, indicating that it was a limited edition. Looking around, I didn’t see anyone rushing back to the table breathlessly claiming to have left it behind. So I took it in the belief that it had been deliberately left behind by the artist for a stranger to discover and, hopefully, enjoy...But who is Yuyanapaq?read
