Lucinda Lavender: Hi sorry heavy fingers here with a lag
--BELL--
Bleu Oleander: hey steve :)
Storm Nordwind: Since we have the train now, and we've done a few static things, but there are many who like things like Tai Chi, how about the Art of Being in Motion
Lucinda Lavender: Hi steve..I just arrived myself
Storm Nordwind: Hi Cinda, Steve
Bleu Oleander: yes, motion would be fun
stevenaia Michinaga: Hi Storm, Bleu, Luci
Storm Nordwind: We're brainstorming about future Art as Being project(s)
stevenaia Michinaga: Thank
stevenaia Michinaga: you
Lucinda Lavender: sounds fun...
Bleu Oleander: as sculpture?
Storm Nordwind: Could be. Or moving texture
Storm Nordwind: Or just showing motion somehow statically
Bleu Oleander: hi Paradise :)
stevenaia Michinaga: for those who do not script, how about the Art of Being Motion in a static form, picture, sculpture or a script
Bleu Oleander: so leave it open maybe?
Paradise Tennant: hiya bleu storm stev luci :)
stevenaia Michinaga: hi PAradise
Bleu Oleander: with just a size parameter
Lucinda Lavender: Hi para:)
stevenaia Michinaga: what storm said
stevenaia Michinaga: :)
Lucinda Lavender: parameter
Storm Nordwind: Guidelines are good to provide limits and to give inspiration. So those examples may be enough
Lucinda Lavender: how is your para meter?
Bleu Oleander: :)
Bleu Oleander: would June 3 be a good date?
Storm Nordwind: I think so. Can't immediately think of a clash
Bleu Oleander: give peeps enough time?
Storm Nordwind: Two months is enough. Too much time and people forget and lose momentum
Bleu Oleander: yes
stevenaia Michinaga: the motion could be a short play as well
stevenaia Michinaga: motion
Storm Nordwind: True :)
Bleu Oleander: performance piece ...
stevenaia Michinaga: 2 meters for object, 2 minutes for an act
stevenaia Michinaga: or 90x90 size and time
stevenaia Michinaga: if that size is meaning ful in SL
Bleu Oleander: what was our last size?
Bleu Oleander: 4m x 4m?
Storm Nordwind: I think so
stevenaia Michinaga: 4 meters or minutes
Bleu Oleander: do you like that size?
Storm Nordwind: For motion it allows space for movement
Bleu Oleander: yes, could always go smaller if you wanted to
stevenaia Michinaga: provide a maximum limit
Storm Nordwind: Trying to remember what the one before that was. 3x3?
Bleu Oleander: I think so
Bleu Oleander: 3x3x4 I think
Storm Nordwind: yes
Storm Nordwind: that's it
Bleu Oleander: that sounds fun ... have some ideas already
Storm Nordwind: haha!
Paradise Tennant: yes means you can fit everyone's work into the dome :)
Storm Nordwind: Must be a reasonable theme then!
Bleu Oleander: I like it
Bleu Oleander: Art of Being in Motion :)

stevenaia Michinaga: Art of Being in Motion or......Art of Being Motion?
Paradise Tennant: smiles sounds like a wonderful theme :)
Storm Nordwind: I like the "in" in there. More ambiguous
Lucinda Lavender: Luci will be listening
