the next meeting will be on the 6th of May at Port Melbourne :) .........bring something for the Pop-swap (that Louis pitched at the last meeting!) So for people who weren't there, the idea is to bring along to the meeting something (could be a book, film, article, image, whatever really) that has been/is important or inspiring or instrumental in their life, practice, development etc....and we put them all in the middle of the room and each person takes someone else's thing to read, watch, spend time with. We will name them all so that everyone gets theirs back, but it's important that everyone who wants to partake brings something so that we have enough for everyone!
So remember to bring something and we'll do that! :)
Some other things, Craig and I were agreeing that having music in the space last Thursday was really great, that it created a whole different vibe, and that it really altered the way people engaged with the materials we were creating from for the better!....this goes for the guitar playing, and the improvised instrumentals that came later in the night :) if people wanted to bring along stuff to make music with (could be formal instruments or just things that could potentially make sound or music!!!!) this could be fun!!!!! I'm gonna bring my Clarinet for example!.....so yeah, bring whatever and let's jam!
On this note, I've forgotten who (maybe Louis????) had the idea that we could do a performance of the sort that occurred at the meeting last time at Remedy! What do people think?.....for anyone not from VCA, Remedy is a performance night that the Painting Department puts on each semester where students have the opportunity to perform. From music, to sound, to different varieties of Performance Art, Remedy is a platform for our performance ideas and dreams to be realized in a supportive and open environment!.....we do not have the date of this semesters yet, but I will get onto John (who runs it) and forward you all the details asap. We were thinking we could even bring up some materials like last week and make stuf on stage. If people are interested in this, let me know and we can toss around some ideas :) I for one am really keen!
Just a few more things I swear....
The Painting department's show is coming up (opening night is the 3rd of May which is the Tuesday after the break)....it's gonna be REAL fun and features only PAINTING, champagne, AND a live jazz quartet!!!! :) so come along to the Student Gallery at 5pm. Oh and it's a black tie event!
A group of us are going to Heide this coming Wednesday (the 27th) meeting at Heidelberg Station at 11am, we're gonna have a picnic so bring food! It's gonna be 23% YAY! I've texted some people already, but the more the merrier :) so spread the word!
Ok, I think that is finally it. I might post this email on the blog too, so people can respond with ideas, thoughts, etc....
I'll email you all soon about more stuf to do with the next meeting.
