  Hello friends! How lovely it was to see you last Monday and hearing your news! I have a couple of links to share…
  
  And Hugh, I’m hoping you’ll share some of your links on Arabic vs Middle Eastern art.
  
  Speaking of the Middle East and collaborating across borders, you all might be interested in this project from Golden Thread here in SF: http://www.goldenthread.org/alo/
  
  I am about to embark on a long-term exploration about personal relationships to cities. Working title: City Creature. I’m fascinated by the ways in which we imagine the places we live as living beings, and the relationships we have with them. One of the first “ways in” that I’m exploring is to collect some imagined creatures of others. I love worksheets and filling out forms, so here’s a City Creature worksheet:

  I’d be delighted if you all could share a bit about your city there.
  
  Until soon!

    Just filled out your cool survey Rebecca! Sorry it took me so long, but definitely had a nice time on it.
    
    Will you be attending the Nov Berry Hangout on Mon? If so, would you like to talk about City Creature?

“Local, Supportive Community (Like This One)”
I appreciate what Michael is up to with his paper for the Art Historians of Southern California, arguing for “Hacking the Timeline” in order to widen the scope of women artists’ role in art history. And I also appreciate what Kate Johnson is doing in this mode as well with her documentary, “A Dancer’s Journey,” which will air November 20 in LA on PBS and nationwide on PBS in 2015 (schedule to come). One of the concrete things I learned while working on my recent performance “What’s on [My] Mind?” is how hard we have to fight for our story to make it into “History.” And it IS a fight — often, frankly, a war — that determines whose names will be remembered by the generations to follow.

  Awesome Xta! I sadly can’t remember the author who said this, but here it is:
  
  Men write about important things, like war; women write about unimportant things, like family.

Rocktober Hangout
Lets Hangout!

Even if we’re not quite as cool as Hatsune Miku hanging out with her pals like Pharrell Williams & Lady Gaga, a Mixed Berry Shake is still a pretty great way to spend the 2nd Monday of the month. Please join us for another inspiring global conversation!

  Nice piece from Kate Krontiris on Listening. And a reminder that letting peeps add agenda items to the meeting agenda on the refrigerator is good. So, THIS POST is the refrigerator! Add any items you may have!

  I know that this may be too late to make it up to the agenda for today, but I’m excited about Aaron Landsman’s latest work, Empathy School, a performance which takes place on a moviing bus and was inspired by the artst’s late-night bus commutes home from New York to Indiana. Here’s a link about the performance. http://empac.rpi.edu/events/2014/fall/empathy-school
