about to strike it outta the calendar >> Art making party (post art murmur) february 7

by Romy Ilano

Hi, I just had ankle surgery so I'm not sure if I can help organize the upcoming post Art Murmur Artmaking party. *I'm about to strike it out of the calendar... * *Is anyone interested in running the event on February 7 still? * Organizing it isn't a big problem, and there are still leftover art supplies (probably in the radio room) from the last event. - At the last event the work I had to do to get it going was minimal. - People just sort of showed up with their own supplies as well, it was very collaborative. https://sudoroom.org/wiki/ArtMakingParty#February_2014 *February 7, 2014* https://sudoroom.org/ai1ec_event/art-making-party/?instance_id=78850 *SudoRoom Art Making Party* *As the Oakland Art Mrumur ends, artmaking werewolves converge on the SudoRoom hackerspace to jam to music, make art, and collaborate in all sorts of crazy werewolf ways.* *If you are an artist, performer, genius of ways to set up collaborative artmaking stations, or have films and videos to show, contact us! We’d like to see your stuff.* ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Artmaking party after January 3 art murmur - year of the snake

by Romy Ilano

Hi I set up a wiki page with a summary of this event. -> it's not going to be a simple art exhibition -> it's after the art murmur I need help with this if anyone is interested. is anyone interested in selling sudomate, etc? https://sudoroom.org/wiki/ArtMakingParty About[edit<https://sudoroom.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=ArtMakingParty&action=edit&s…> ] January 3, 2014 - we are having a post Oakland Art Murmur art making evening. The idea is that instead of doing an art show, we will create a space for people to create art, hack on stuff, dance and perform for everyone live. It's like a Jazz musician jam. There are going to be art MC's such as James Lamaste and roller skaters like Elle Seven cheering people on, presenting videos, and playing music. We need: - Art supplies, any old markers or pens you have - any extra electronics parts you have - Big rolls of paper - clean up, people interested in being mimes and performers Sites[edit<https://sudoroom.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=ArtMakingParty&action=edit&s…> ] - Official Event Page: https://sudoroom.org/ai1ec_event/art-year-of-the-snake-rebirth/?instance_id= - Facebook Invite Page: https://www.facebook.com/events/1399202000323761/1399202003657094 Schedule[edit<https://sudoroom.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=ArtMakingParty&action=edit&s…> ] - Opening ceremonies presented by James Lamaste - People are directed to where they can draw or hack, different stations. There will be standing areas for the MC to go to at various points of the night to showcase their progress. - Elle Seven will skate around, present her wonderful skate films set in Dakar and East Los Angeles. http://facebook.com/elleseven ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com
