Hi y'all, Even if a long movie on Art Murmur is not the most social event, it was a very good movie and I am glad we watched it. (Money and Life) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0xRkaJCs5g Interestingly our neighbor (the door next to the kitchen) seemed to completely disagree with the core message and it seemd to be defending our current system. The piano on the street was a wonderful thing, thanks Sam &co. With the Art Murmur we have a big potential to grow something awesome. I hope our community will grow, continue to open up, embrace diversity, and will have many awesome projects, discussions and exchange to come. We live in very interesting times and this opening up might be the key to something really special that can happen in Oakland. I hope as a community we will stay away from accusation, blame and criticism and focus on what unites us. coming together and creating a better future. One thing that we could easily pull of is making the Art Murmur event @ Sudo to networking and community event for hackers, creatives, change agents, activists, green movements... we can invite all the hackerspaces around and all the non profits we are connected with and reach out to more local groups. (Monthly BACH Networking ?) Similar the Second Saturdays we have the Solano Art Walk in Berkeley. With inspiration and help of our Community we declared the Open Fine Art Gallery a Hackerspace. It is located in the storage room of the vacant1 it has a secret entrance to inside the theatre. we could make a movie in there. (what about a movie about reclaiming the theatre, maybe it will be a self-fulfilling prophecy) if we create a well networked community and reach out to the first and generation hackers who made it to money I believe we could reclaim the whole theater and BACH Hacker University/Hotel/Conference Center/Theater/Space/School Saturday June 8th will be the first official "Solano Art Walk", and it would be wonderful to show the local community here what and how awesome hackerspaces are. Maybe with a huge map of the bay area with all the hackerspaces, electronic kits, LED strips... any art projects that sudoers and other hackers might wanna show. This Saturday May 11th we have an art opening as well, 7-9pm is a good time to come by and check out the space and share visions for the future. Maybe someone wants to come out and wants to declare the space 'Sudo-gallery" the space is payed for until july, all events are free and donation based, the rules are "be excellent to each other and say hi" the conflict resolution is we focus on love peace and unity (we do not support hate, separation or fear). ------- What do you guys think of having a Art Murmur planning meeting 10 days - 2 weeks before the next murmur? anyone interested in hacking the gallery or hacking the theatre in north berkeley? best, patrick https://www.facebook.com/OpenFineArtGallery openfineartgallery.net hackthegallery.net _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org http://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-discuss
