Cloud City opened in 2005 at the MOCA warehouse during the annual Art Basel in Miami. Setup as an interactive playground for all ages the installation opened to a playful crowd. Comprised of geometric shapes such inflatable spheres, padded 10 foot cones on casters, and pillowed cylinders the installation was filled with many things to play with. Half spheres were easily and intentionally used as slides. A large portion of the objects used in the warehouse replicated the facial design of The Boy and varying in colors such as white, purple, magenta, and blue. Alongside the playful aspects of the installation a large focus of the work was on the rituals of sound and play. Friends With You artists Sam Borkson and Arturo Sandoval III dressed as The Boy during the opening reception and played and interacted with gallery visitors for multiple hours non-stop to further the interactive experience. With the start of Cloud City Friends With You also released a CD music album of the same name featuring music artists such as PonPoko, Phoenicia, Otto VaN Shirach the Magnificent, and Sam.
