No. If someone would like to be at athemoo to meet people between 7:30 and 9
p.m. PDT we could chat. The first performance will be better I think we just
get Greg Martin on and Storm Crow and Andrea and maybe some of the rest of the
staff at the Internet Cafe and we get their perspectives on it. But we have the
time glitch in the PR that went out, so we might actually need you to do it
again after a short break--if you can get the space. I mean people might be
coming in to athemoo at 10 p.m. PDT--that will be 7 p.m. your time I think. Do
you have time after in Cafe Stein? Sounds like there may be where we are more
likely to connect, the time format is more flexible. I would like to try to get
Santiago's files down, at least one. Actually I have one, a parodos.ra from
before MMK. So I can play that. I have no animations and cannot find the
hellaceous red still. We'll just tell our guys that we're working with geniuses
on the Oudeis project and they will understand that that's how we talk about
*them* too.
Selkirk College has just put in a new lab with nice speakers and the
possibility for mics. It's for teachers, a separate subnet. Nicer as a venue.
Near a lounge and a lobby and a couple of small but wired lecture theaters. I
talked to the Head of the Computing Center and she said we can invite the
public to it. So I am thinking about an opening. I am thinking of something
more like an installation that would extend the "event time" to something more
like a week, with online shenanigans for 2-4 weeks in advance and the same
after. Follow up is really important on the Internet.

The 12th? For us each player is a theater. Each of us is a separate stage and
play and craft although I hope there will be several painters and there could
be several photographers. We meet to discuss how to draw an audience, how to
market our work in the new age, how to bring art and music and theater to its
audiences, our art to our audiences. I imagine we will broach the very
foundations of creativity. Our evening is a creative cross-fertilization. The
world around us is our audience our model our cosmos and our marketplace--our
planet. (In the background you can probly hear the piano player practicing
Cecil Taylor's "Live in Vienna" which will be played as a background for the
night's event. (Beeg joke, but a great CD: not a wash, but a muscular
penetration). I expect to show Oudeis first as a MOO connection via Pueblo.
