Luas activity
I've been thinking I'd like to make a piece which uses the fact that the luas passes by and stops so regularly. Maybe for it to spell out a phrase or something. Not sure we'll see. I like the rythm of it.

Small problem
This is great Laura,
good idea with the email notification. I always forget to check blogs too.
I have a bit of a problem in that I have now been invited to one of my oldest friends weddings on the 20th of July in Galway. Obviously I think we should still go ahead, but it means I won't be there for the weekend. I'll invigilate for the other two days, needless to say. And I dont know how that will effect the events. It's a really big shame, I was looking forward to hanging out in a gallery for a while! Talk to you about it soon,
So sorry

E-mail notification of blog activity
I am trying to set this up, mainly because I tend to forget to check the blog, but always check my e-mail ... if it works, you will get an e-mail whenever there is a new post (not sure about edits or comments).
If it gets annoying, let me know, and I will turn it off again!

Timetable
Great idea Vera! Here's a skeleton to get us started ...
16 May: Paid 250 euro to gallery
16 May: Took fotos/video of space
By 25 May: Write short blurb about show and forward to Jessamyn for inclusion in July/August gallery guide.
Early June: sign contract, find out who's on their mailing list and compile own list.
Mid-June: Design invitations - we should have all our events decided on before then, so they can be on the invitations. Would be good to have a good crowd for the events!
Late-June: Invitations to printers
Just before show: Pay 250 euro to gallery
Monday, July 16: Start set-up
Wednesday, July 18: Opening!!! What time?
Monday, July 23: Take down show
Keep adding stuff in as you think of it ...

Editing posts
Looks like I can only edit my own post
LB says:
Sorry folks - just typical: i set it up and lose all internet access for two days!
OK - the main problem with posting I think is that the settings for invitees should have defaulted to ADMIN, but were set to GUEST. But we are all ADMIN now, so should be OK to edit.
Mind you, maybe you're right Vera, and commenting would be the way to go ...

hello
uaaargggg- don t know how this works! will need a few days to get my head around blog and show!- still freakin out a bit

So we got us a venue ...
... and now we got us a blog/collaboration space/whatever. I hope y'all got the invitations to authorship. I've never set up a multi-author blog before, but it seems straightforward enough, as long as you have a Google identity.
Sure we can give it a go, and if it isn't useful, we can delete the lot.
In my head, a way it might work would be that we create new posts for new ideas, and edit existing posts to add new material on an existing topic. For example, say we start a post containing a list of ideas for events we might have during the show (I'll make one in a minute and create a link to it in the sidebar). When you have an idea to add to the list, just edit that post. Does that make sense? Maybe not. Anyway, we'll see how it works as we go along. We can post photos of the venue, details we get from Jessamyn and Aideen, and so on as well, if that turns out to be useful to us.
Anyway, humour me for now - it makes me feel like I'm contributing!

Possible events during the show
This is what I remember of our conversation today. Please edit away and add on new stuff.
Balloons
Teatime
Singing - individual and group
DJ
Live instrumentalists
Coffee morning
It would be good to have something around 5 or 6 on Saturday - when people who might have been in town anyway would be thinking of going home.
Choir-wise, we will be on holidays from early June, but if I ask in the next couple of weeks, we might be able to get enough bodies together for a short performance. What they would do would be determined by the number of people available, but it's a good sound. Whaddya think? Is choral music too "establishment" for us or what?
