There will be slots every Saturday set aside for reading/showing/playing/performing work by other people that has profoundly influenced you and which you’d like to share, just let us know if you’d like to do something; ditto for performing (etc.) your own things.
And after all of the ‘official’ events, and every other evening with whomever wants to stop by, we’ll be playing Post-Neo and Surrealist games, conversing and debating, making mail art and whatever else, performing poems, improvising; video and sound equipment will be on hand, Post-Neo toys to play with and Post-Neo films and sounds to listen to when and as the mood strikes us collectively.
Other proposed ideas: LET US KNOW IF YOU’RE INTERESTED—
-a collective book-making night
-an Anti-Banquet
-a night of acoustic[etc,] music
-an evening of Splat Poems
-a night of collective Noise improvisation
AND: for all of you local folks, there will be making, conversing, and general merriment transpiring here on most evenings this month, just give any one of us a call or stop on by.. Get in touch for more information or if you’d like to be involved or to see if there’s anything going on here at the moment!
MORE SOON!
VIM VOM VIM VOM VIM VOM VIM VOM VIM VIM VIM VOM VIM VOM VIM (again) VOM (again) VIM (again) VOM,
