I wanted to see if anyone had any input for the name it's listed under as part of Art
Murmur.
I had earlier suggested Sudo Art, but I've heard some better non-obvious suggestions
as well.

to the Art Murmur membership guidelines
(
http://oaklandartmurmur.org/images/stories/docs/oam-membership-guidelines-a…),
galleries or mixed-use spaces participating in First Fridays receive the following
benefits:
>>
>> * Representation on the Art Murmur map and postcard, which will be printed as
needed.
>> * Representation on the Art Murmur website, with ability to update your
events.
>> * Access to post on the Oakland Art Murmur Facebook page.
>> * Opportunity to participate in Saturday Stroll, which is marketed with its own
postcard, ad campaign, program listings, and press campaign.
>> * Opportunity to participate in the annual Murmurama event, which takes place
on the third Saturday in May.
>> * Opportunity to lead a guided tour of OAM galleries, which is a great way to
bring new people to your venue.
>> * Sticker to identify you as an Oakland Art Murmur member, and temporary signs
that wrap around poles, to install when you are open or on First Friday.
>> * Networking and press opportunities as they arise.

>> As Tracy described in her earlier email below, the only real obstacle to our
joining is the cost - $100 one time application fee and then $175/year membership.

>> If we do join (and probably even if we don't), it seems like a good idea to
create some way of regularly organizing events around Art Murmur.
>> There was an ad hoc list of a few people who expressed interest in helping out,
but there wasn't much of a coordinated effort. Tracy's set-up in the box office
was awesome last month, but we're going to need

for particular projects, I think some kind of stable, but dynamic group of Sudo folk, even
if just a few people, could really help round up participation for displaying the art
people make anyhow as well as other coordination as required. I propose we form something
like a Dynamic Association for Displayed Art (DADA) that rotates active contributors each
month based on the particular installations and projects are going on. Documenting how we
go about it each month on the Sudo Wiki would also be really helpful for coordinating
future events more efficiently.

>> Given the Ferro Fluids phenomena transpiring in Sudo Room and now the arrival of
a giant papier-maché cruise-ship, we should get some Sudo folks on a cc:ed list to
communicate about the Aug. 3 Art Murmur. This group can solicit people's art, make
sure projectors, etc. are set up, make sure there are cups to accompany the wine, make
sure teenagers don't exceed their turn playing Frogger, and other logistics evidently
requiring organization.

>> I want to put together a 'happening' connected to the box office maximum
occupancy experiment on Aug. 3, if anyone else wants to help out with

to get some help with the 8.5 ft. inflatable Stay Puft Marshmallow Men (which ended up
taking more than three hours to hang from the roof of 2135 Broadway, even with the
landlord George's assistance.)
>>
>> So since the August First Friday Art Murmur is now coming upon us in a week and a
half and with the possibility of also doing something for the Saturday Stroll, we should
find out who's interested in being in the DADA committee for August. Following up on
yesterday's meeting minutes
>> about Art Murmur (
https://pad.riseup.net/p/sudoroom), please let Tracy (kinetical
at
comcast.net) and/or me know and we'll start off the planning discussion.
