quality stuff bill.

stephengoodall

yeah i am up for meeting w/regards the freshers fair. but during the day is difficult unless it is tomorrow(mon) or tues/wed before 12, or fri/ sat after 5

stephengoodall

i had always thought the odeon building was listed, so it would likely be redeveloped ratrher than knocked down.

stephengoodall

wednesday is no good for me i'm afraid

stephengoodall

i may be being stupid but what's wrong with gmail, aside from being google, or is that the point?

stephengoodall

at the recent blender meeting there was discussion on replacing the mural on the cafe wall- the one with the winged flower eye guys. abigail emailed me saying she would like to do something there but i thought it might be good to treat the wallspace the same way we do the gallery, i.e. have a look a...

stephengoodall

any chance we could make it 6.30? i don't finish work till 5.30 and it is far away.

stephengoodall

move all the computers, leeches and people who talk through movies into the gallery and blast it into the sun.

re: the linsay show- i thought sweet shop was up next- isn't that jullianna capes?? anybody know?

stephengoodall

we have the emails but over the period while folks were away they built up a bit and there was some confusion as to which were replied to etc. we are currently in the process of working through them as fairly as possible but the gallery is currently booked out solid till the new year, meaning there ...

stephengoodall

Yeah that is a good idea- Martin can you do a flier as well? are we doing a seperate event? If so we could project a slideshow of snapshots of people recieving their fake degrees. might be funny. below is the artist info for the three shows we know about. ok here goes. Drawing on the imagery of natu...

stephengoodall

right well i have info for lucy mackenzie, mike bowdidge and will hopefully get something from ola rek tomorrow. what slipped my mind, however, is that before that we have the two cryptic shows "sweet shop" and "potlatch" which we have no info or contacts for. maybe we could just say, "these shows m...

stephengoodall

i think i'm against the idea if there is work actually hanging on the walls. for one, there isn't that much space anyway and the moving of tables, chairs and folks back and fro with frequency will increase the likelyhood of damage to the work. also, tables chairs and folk will cause an obstruction t...

stephengoodall

good. one point though... TotalKunst is an open access, artist led intitiative run by the forest visual arts working group. we are a non-profit charity organisation which offers artists and other creatives the chance to exhibit and develop their work free from commission. This is unclear and not ac...

stephengoodall

i'll post the blurb here to be ok'd also

stephengoodall

ok cool i will write up a blurb and mail it to you, martin.

i would like to construct the hat, if poss.

also, if we are doing the eca degree thing, are we altering/ adding to the degrees or just handing out replicas/simulacra

stephengoodall

what format do you need the book to be in?

do you mean just select some images or print them out, write some text and compose a pamphlet also?

stephengoodall

that sounds like a good idea. i'm for it.

stephengoodall

my main agenda with the eca is the way that the in crowd have monopoly over the art scene here which bugs me so it would no doubt be good to make people think twice about feeling that they are automatically the bees' because they attend. maybe though, i feel that in a way, focusing the idea on the e...

stephengoodall

yes, i concur

stephengoodall

it would be great to use the gallery space to create a "shop", subverting common retail bollocks. it would be good to have people altering stuff to make artist's editions, one off objet d'arte type stuff made from free things maybe a policy of take something make something, or take something, deposi...

stephengoodall

thanks for the kind comments, it was great fun working on it!

stephengoodall

i think we should make Totalkunst degrees which declare the bearer an artist.

to get the degree the applicant should have to don a funny hat and perform a masonic handshake.

those that refuse get a distinction.

stephengoodall

"we offer to consider your proposals free from prejudice"

stephengoodall

sounds like it might be a laugh

anyone got any good ideas for it?

free stuff is the standard for these things isnt it? what about badges or soemthing?

stephengoodall

well i picked up the HARD copy apps today, will try to arrange a suitable time with martin to give them a look over.

stephengoodall

hello i've just heard from daniel at WTCDTD and it seems they will be installing a photography exhibition starting friday so i this project will have to be postponed until it is over

stephengoodall

well they got stuff planned for the entreance and annexe- does annexe refer to the stairway part of the building?

i will try to get in touch with them directly

stephengoodall

it seems there is a lot of space in the stairwell that would be good to fill with cool drawings and stuff for when it is open over the festival. there is quite alot of space up for grabs and it might be good to draw on the walls or similar in a group to maintain critical mass and enthusiasm obviousl...

stephengoodall

hi alice the meeting was good it was chris, james martin and myself. it seems there is a vast amount of space on the stairways up to the hall and in the hall itself that needs filling with work so me and martin are trying to see if we can find anyone who could help us draw stuff etc. manged to secur...

stephengoodall

certainly no offence taken on my part, i'm interested in and enjoying the discussion. i am interested in the generic and writing generic statements is something that comes naturally to me, its always good when that ability can have a use. (spiderman style thought baloon) but i must use that ability ...

stephengoodall

fair points, all. I geuss what i wrote above could be seen more as a mission statement for the visual arts working group rather than a manifesto for the TotalKunst artist collective. One thing i gleaned from last month's meeting was that TotalKunst was an inclusive operation and that participation a...

stephengoodall

met with mike bowdidge yesterday with regards to his proposed installation in the gallery space and maybe also in other parts of the building. http://www.re-title.com/artists/michael-bowdidge.asp some pics of past work on the above link. Mike would prefer to work in the space over a few days, maybe ...

stephengoodall

yeah i think you guys are right i think contemporary should be replaced with visual.

stephengoodall

i think the problem is that alot of the long term members aren't around just now. having been around for a couple of weeks after attending 1 meeting it would feel presumptious to attempt to speak for the whole group. but hey, i'll give it a shot; "to create an open access working group with the inte...

stephengoodall

from what i remember of the proposal i think it would look good too. I think it was decided in the last meeting that some clarification was necessary to see exactly what the artist was proposing.

i geuss another subject for the next meeting to see when she could do it?

stephengoodall

hi

i'm bumping this in the hope of an answer on the matter of the tv and mailing list. anyone got any ideas?

stephengoodall

hi me and martin had some ideas to do with the submissions, some of which were detailed in the submissions thread a few below this one but as alice said there may not be enough people around for it to be any good. but maybe it could go up for discussion? by then i should have also met with the artis...

stephengoodall

i met with phil ewe today and he seems pretty much set for his exhibition beginning the 16th but there were a few questions that came up that i couldn't answer: existence and location of a tv he could use? some confusion about the budget- he was told £pound but someone mentioned £100 while we were t...

stephengoodall

i could probably meet him, will send a mail.

if you could let me know what information you would like to glean from the meeting, whether you were considering him for a single day or a full exhibition span that would be helpful

stephengoodall

never mind i got it. i must have been being stupid

stephengoodall

i think i'm being stupid but how do i get the attachment?

stephengoodall

the idea was to set up a system of different numerical categories to help with filing the incoming proposals. This is a technique which is used in alot of the annual exhibitions to help with organisation in the face of so many works. if their were four different categories they might be broken down ...

stephengoodall

i found this site and message board on my digital travels and thought it may be of interest.
http://www.midwest.org.uk/mid.west?m=f

although it is mainly based in england there seems to be some interesting articles and links/ oppertunities for networking etc.

stephengoodall

hi actually it was me who was up for doing the press release stuff

i'll post some more info about the idea for the system of categorisation soon.
