Bruce Mowbray: Where's Eliza?

Bruce Mowbray: Eliza wrote:

Agatha Macbeth: She said she may not make it today

Bruce Mowbray: This week there are a plethora of topics, including much

abuzz about the amazing theater and Art as Being project

now underway. Stay tuned for an email from Storm on this

matter.

 

 

 

Agatha Macbeth: And Wol is working so sends her apols

Agatha Macbeth: Well Max, if you want to start...

Maxine Walden: OK, Storm and I can both speak to it

Aphrodite Macbain: I'm very excited about the Vachon retreat.

Aphrodite Macbain: Thanks to Storm and Maxine

Agatha Macbeth: ty

Maxine Walden: But as the link suggests the retreat will be focussed on how we each and all can explore and help each other explore the nature of reality

Aphrodite Macbain: I know there are one or two people who cant afford to go to the full retreat however

Aphrodite Macbain: Can they attend for the first few days?

Aphrodite Macbain: Or pitch a tent!?

Xirana Oximoxi: :)

Agatha Macbeth: Erk

Maxine Walden: We are trying to be as open as possible, and we would like to explore that. So not ruling it out at this stage. Storm, do you have thoughts here?

Aphrodite Macbain: Lucinda and Cal are two who are concerned

Maxine Walden: yes, had heard that Luci was concerned, had not heard back from Cal

Storm Nordwind: My thoughts about partial attendance are the same as other retreats. We've had people who want to attend part. Arriving at the start and departing early has been found to be OK. Coming in in the middle and staying to the end does not seem to work.

Aphrodite Macbain: He told me he would come if he could come for a few days

Aphrodite Macbain: and seemed to find that solution perfectly acceptable

Maxine Walden: We are trying to establish as open and exploratory an atmosphere as possible, and yet respect that some coherence amidst the group is important as well...so partial attendance might be one of the explorations...

Storm Nordwind: Good morning Susan!

Xirana Oximoxi: hi Susan

Bruce Mowbray: Hey, Susan.

Aphrodite Macbain: yes, nice way of thinking of it

iwandertoo Resident: waves

Yakuzza Lethecus: hey susan

Maxine Walden: hi, Susan.

Agatha Macbeth: Hello Sue

Aphrodite Macbain waves at Susan

Hokon Cazalet: hi susan =)

iwandertoo Resident: :)

Maxine Walden: We are talking about the Seattle retreat in Sept, Susan

iwandertoo Resident: ty

Agatha Macbeth: Oops

Maxine Walden: assuming that each of our views is important and we likely will be bringin our personal explorations to the whole group, exploring the 'space betweeen' that is the space we all share in just being together...exploring that as well, which is often not put into words. sort of our 'being' together

Maxine Walden: so a variety of avenues of exploration, not privileging any single avenue

Maxine Walden: rally an egalitarian approach

Maxine Walden: really

Agatha Macbeth: Sounds good

Maxine Walden: :)

Storm Nordwind: That approach is all why I'm certainly in favor of added richness that all people can bring. So I'm happy about people who arrive at the start but who need to leave part way. I can also understand why it's good to build a group dynamic from the start so I also prefer that people don't arrive halfway through.

Aphrodite Macbain: I'm sure that is do-able

Bruce Mowbray muses: Yayyyy - - - Diversity rules!

Aphrodite Macbain: How many are confirmed?

Aphrodite Macbain grins at Bruce

Bruce Mowbray: ;-)

Maxine Walden: Well, so far, Maxine, Storm, Aphrodite, and ...Susan, at one point you had said 'yes' is that still the case?

Bruce Mowbray: Hey, Mila.

Maxine Walden: So,we may have three and one half if Luci plans to come for half the time

iwandertoo Resident: yes...i'm 99% in...

iwandertoo Resident: sorry

milakel Resident: hi :)

Agatha Macbeth: Hello Mil

Maxine Walden: oh, great, Susan. Was not sure...

Yakuzza Lethecus: hey mila

iwandertoo Resident: this is the September one...yes?

Xirana Oximoxi: hi MIla:)

Maxine Walden: yes, Sept 25-Oct 1

milakel Resident: retreat?

Maxine Walden: yes, Mila, retreat on Vashon Island, near Seattle

Agatha Macbeth blows a bugle

milakel Resident: ah, yes... lovely place

Maxine Walden: :)

milakel Resident: the lighting looks harsh here. is someone wearing a really bright face light? :)

Agatha Macbeth glares suspiciously

milakel Resident: :)

Hokon Cazalet: nope, not my face-light

Agatha Macbeth: ;P

milakel Resident: could be sl

Agatha Macbeth: Yes, it is Sunday after all

Xirana Oximoxi: I was wearing face light and now not... has it improved the lighting around?

Hokon Cazalet: naw i saw no difference

milakel Resident: no, xir, but thanks :)

Xirana Oximoxi: ok:)

Hokon Cazalet: sl lighting isnt the best it could be

Xirana Oximoxi: I look beautiful anyway ;)

Hokon Cazalet: =)

Agatha Macbeth: me too :)

Storm Nordwind: There are the normal three facelights that are part of this hall - but they've always been here

Xirana Oximoxi: :))

milakel Resident: btw, who do i send the molecular theater opening pictures to?

milakel Resident: stormy, ah, must be them :)

Agatha Macbeth: To be honest I haven't even noticed

Xirana Oximoxi: me either:)

Agatha Macbeth: Is it your graphics Mil?

milakel Resident: maybe it's a new feature in 2.7.1 :)

milakel Resident: *wonders how sl client 3.0 will look like*

Agatha Macbeth: Yeah, V2 to blame again!

Hokon Cazalet: hehe milakel

Xirana Oximoxi: I've read about viewer 2.7..they say it has improved the 'shadows' in SL

Aphrodite Macbain powders her nose

Hokon Cazalet still uses 1.23.5

milakel Resident: *watches aph*

Agatha Macbeth grins

Aphrodite Macbain: better?

Agatha Macbeth: You looked ok before :p

milakel Resident: that's a small sampling of guardians today

milakel Resident: aph, you still have the molecular headphones on? :)

milakel Resident: what's playing?

Agatha Macbeth: Listening to music prob

Aphrodite Macbain: Yes. I forgot to remove it.

milakel Resident: :)

Aphrodite Macbain: I rather liked it as a hairpiece

milakel Resident: hehe

milakel Resident: yep

Agatha Macbeth: New fashion accessory

Maxine Walden: :)

Aphrodite Macbain: hehe

Aphrodite Macbain giggles

milakel Resident: i like stormy's opening tune

Agatha Macbeth: Did 0 sneak in?

milakel Resident: 0?

Agatha Macbeth: ooO0Ooo...or whatever

Hokon Cazalet: no he isnt here

milakel Resident: ah, sam :)

Agatha Macbeth: That sounded like her laugh

Hokon Cazalet: not on my radar

Agatha Macbeth: Ah well

Hokon Cazalet's radar sees all, except lindens

Agatha Macbeth: Mine sees them

Hokon Cazalet: !

Agatha Macbeth: They appear in blue

milakel Resident: hearing laughs in a quiet room is probably a good sign :)

Agatha Macbeth: Could be

Agatha Macbeth: Aph, remind me...was there anything else we intended to bring up today?

Aphrodite Macbain: umm

Agatha Macbeth: Can't think of anything myself

Aphrodite Macbain: the scheduling of the music activities on Tuesday and taking place in the theatre

Aphrodite Macbain: Sun isn't here to explain

Storm Nordwind: There are two workshops today. There's a Theater Workshop at 11am (first of 2 on Set design). And there's an Art History workshop at noon.

Agatha Macbeth: Oh yes, damn

Agatha Macbeth: Yes, thx Storm

Xirana Oximoxi: how can I know the activities that will be played in the theater? looking at the calendar?

Aphrodite Macbain: Yes but the music workshops were going to take place in the theatre now-on Tuesdays at noon sIt's in the minutes of the WG meeting

Storm Nordwind: At the moment we're annoncing by email. Don't know whether druth has added Theater stuff to the calendar (or whether it's our own responsibility!)

Aphrodite Macbain: at noon on Tuesdays

Xirana Oximoxi: ok, thank you:)

Agatha Macbeth: I must take a look at the calendar...

Aphrodite Macbain: It was going to be put in the Calendar

Agatha Macbeth nods

Storm Nordwind: druth is experimenting with an inworld noticeboard that can look at the calendar - I know that

Agatha Macbeth: Ooh

Agatha Macbeth: sounds good

Storm Nordwind: Been assisting druth a little with that

Aphrodite Macbain: and put at the Pavilion?

Xirana Oximoxi: yes, sounds very good:)

Storm Nordwind: No idea where yet

Storm Nordwind: Had to be v1 and Phoenix compatible so the technique is restrictive

Aphrodite Macbain: seems to be the place we all go to

Agatha Macbeth: Can it not go next to the present one?

Storm Nordwind: (One of the few benefits of v2 is seems ;))

Storm Nordwind: Viewer 1 compatible noticeboards are sensitive to the plot of land where the avatar is standing

Agatha Macbeth: OMG

Storm Nordwind: if they use a web page view that is

Storm Nordwind: That's why the two noticeboards at the pavilion are on separate plots of land

Storm Nordwind: A third might be hard

Agatha Macbeth: Mm, yes

Aphrodite Macbain: oh

Storm Nordwind: so we might have one with buttons to select the page you want!

Agatha Macbeth: That would be ok

Storm Nordwind: yes

Aphrodite Macbain: yes. one simple step

Agatha Macbeth: If i could work it out, anybody could

Bruce Mowbray: Folks, I need to get ready for Quaker Meeting now.

Agatha Macbeth: Quake well Brucie

Xirana Oximoxi: bye Bruce:)
