Way to go

It was a great meeting again at the School of Art last night. Like the previous session, I was impressed and excited by the enthusiasm shown by everyone there. It’s great to be part of a project where people are so keen to take part and develop something new. I’m really looking forward to seeing the proposals when they’re submitted.

Perhaps this could be the start of a new way for the museum and art gallery to work with local artists, keeping in touch more closely with what’s going on in the area and discussing ways to improve the activities and events at the museum to encourage more people to take part in different ways.

Another year, another meeting

I’m ashamed to see how long it’s been since my last post on this blog. What can I say? Christmas, New Year, bad weather, other work commitments… the usual reasons/excuses.

Anyway, there’s another meeting tonight at 5pm at the Burslem School of Art. If you’re on our mailing list, you should have received an e-mail reminder of this recently. Tonight’s meeting will have less of a clear agenda than the last meeting. Its main purpose is a general discussion of progress and ideas – more of a chance to catch up and ask any questions that may have arisen since the previous meeting.

I can’t promise to post on this blog quite as much as I did before Christmas, but I’ve been accumulating a list of links to interesting digital and multimedia activities, so perhaps for the next few weeks, this blog may become more of a referral site.

Remember, if you find anything you think is relevant or intersting to the Leave No Trace exhibition or the people involved in one way or another, feel free to add a post on this blog. (You’ll have to register first, if you haven’t already done so.)

Hope to see you this afternoon/evening.

Roll up! Roll up!

It’s only a couple of days now until the meeting at Burslem School of Art on 18th November to open up preparation of the exhibition. I hope a lot of people come along to listen to the presentation and contribute to the discussion. It’s really important that artists feel involved in the process and have the opportunity to help shape the exhibition, so start thinking about what digital erasure might mean to you. Hope to see you there, between 5pm and 7pm!
