Hey everyone--have any of you heard of the San Jose SubZero festival?
It's Friday, June 7th and celebrates the underground. think mexigoths, fire
sculptures, rockabilly bands and skaters and street art!
Yes--I know it's weird.. it's San Jose! we all have a lot of ideas about
San Jose. I was there for about two years and the people running the
subzero are very legit. Despite the high rents, fairly cookie cutter
atmosphere cherri + brian from anno domini have been keeping the
underground alive... they also run the $5 for art tuesdays and support low
cost local events by local artists down there.
*cherri isn't making money off this--none of her crew is. they break even
every year... *
*
*
*if anyone is interested in carpoling with me down to san jose to have a
table or do some crazy art projection experiment, let me know. I'll be
chatting with people about this.*
*san jose is highly suburban and has especially high rent prices,some parts
worse than san francisco. the arts have a tough ttime down there, despite a
nice downtown layout and a university.*
*
*
*subzero festival makes things easier... they were asking if we wanted to
do a game/play/experiemnt.*
*
*
*it's in june... so would love to get in conversation with folks about this
now!*
*SubZERO Festival: *First Friday June 7th., 6pm-midnight

Hi! It's time for our annual convergence of all you *Progenitors of Culture*
!
It's been a very tough year for everyone, and yet, here we all still
are....we have not wavered in our determination to be who we are, to live
the life we dream of and build the city we want to live in.
The 6th Annual SubZERO Festival is one of the most amazing celebrations of
the indie, DIY, subculture and counter culture experiences and it's
because of YOU and we want you back this year! Your participation shows you
don't just "do" art, but you ARE an artist and you're in it for a long term
life and career. We have had many success stories result from the festival
- we've had participants use the momentum of the fan base they've
cultivated from SubZERO to launch their own brick & mortar store fronts of
their own, works of art are in homes of collectors and artists have been
invited into other active collectives, indie entrepreneurs have had their
product picked up by big retail brands and the festival has served as a
catalyst for artists to receive national/international inquiries to show
and perform.
And don't underestimate that the crowd will be "the same" - San Jose is
notorious for new surges of residents from all over the world to work in
the tech industry we're known for (and seems to be flourishing once again)
and these new comers experience the perception that we're a cultural
wasteland....NOT TRUE and this festival changes those perceptions
immediately but we can only change those perceptions if you're out there to
show them!
That's what we do....we create and inspire and thrive. And we do it *
TOGETHER.*
----------------------------------------- 2013 SubZERO Festival
Information
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's our annual gathering of the Progenitors of Culture otherwise known as
the Sixth Annual *SubZERO Festival*!
Focused on emerging and present subcultures thriving in our region, SubZERO
is a DIY, artistically bent, hi/lo-techno mashup where street meets geek.
You're receiving this first round of invitations because we are grateful to
you for your past participation. You've helped build the festival into a
highly anticipated celebration of subculture artists, performers & creative
indie businesses. You've been here all day, every day, all year long doing
what you know to be the most challenging thing in your life but you do it
with determination and uncompromising values. This is the night we get to
share that work and know that there are others that appreciate it, get
inspired by it and want to connect with it. You push the arts, culture and
humanity forward, and so "thank you!" in advance for not just this one
event, but for all that you do always.
Like last year, this festival is DIY....We all bring it to make it happen.
Vendor spaces will be the standard 10' x 10'. You'll need to bring
everything you'll need to exhibit, display, perform and/or sell your work.

I was browsing the web and I stumbled across an ancient script detailing
the coming and going of Jay.
I think there's even kimchi in there.
Behold! he is emerging from a 3D Printer... emitting holy beams of ABS...

Jordan recalibrated the 3D printer last night... so now you can see the
before and after. resting on the holy script from HIS hand...

what can we do to avoid disappointing him?
<3 it will all come in time...

I'd love to hear from spaces interested in forming a team and throwing

Hi, i'm throwing this out there for chez hack. I can do ios mobile location
based stuff, a very simple app that's hooked up to a web dashboard that
would be great for mapping out hacker spaces or neighborhoods through
geofencing.
It also has image recognition that's better than QR codes, that would
recognize a photograph.
it's using a commercial SDK though (Qualcomm's Gimbal) so that's the
caveat... but I think if anyone's down for interesting ideas with that, it
would be a fun project!

April 17th* - thanks Rusty
Please review the agenda, add additional items, links, etc.

Hol and Naomi,
I agree with and support your locker idea completely. Self-funding
investments until profitability is a model we need to start.
I propose the price be $100 / m^3 to start.

hi folks,
there was some discussion a long long time ago in a galaxy far far away
about having lockers in the space and renting them out to members to
generate revenue / encourage people to work on long-term projects here
and/or allow them to just not carry as much home between visits
tall kind, probably not ideal:
http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/mat/3734207524.html
smaller cube size:
http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/bfd/3704726575.html
i think it would be a good idea to throw in a few lockers and have people
sign up for recurring payments in order to reserve them. if seems like a
good idea, i'd be willing to buy them if i can be reimbursed AFTER the
locker program breaks even.
thoughts?
