Greetings!
For discussion & possible consensus at the next Omni Delegates Meeting on March 1st:
I'd like to propose that Omni pay for an exhibition table ($100) at the
Allied Media Conference this summer in Detroit. I will be attending, albeit also as a representative for Sudo Mesh.
For those unfamiliar with the conference, it's one of the radder ones I've heard of over the past decade - but have never attended myself. The theme is essentially the intersection of social justice and media - what AMC describes as "
media-based organizing," defined as "any collaborative process that uses media, art, or technology to address
the roots of problems and advances holistic solutions towards a more
just and creative world." This is the 20th annual conf, which is always located in
Detroit, and takes place this summer from
June 14-17.
Are any other collective members also planning to attend? Would you be interested in sharing an Omni table to display info about your projects and/or helping to staff the table for some shifts throughout the duration of the conference?
