Updates - Different rooms #10

Open slgsson opened 6 years ago

slgsson commented 6 years ago

Would be great with an update on how things are going with Nature room, Music room, DIY room and Freedom room.

Art room - First meeting with Euan Williams Yesterday. He is really interested to be a part of it, but is slightly worries about the timeline as there is not much time left. He's thinking about potential works today and tmrw and I will meet with him tmrw (16/8) again to have another brainstorm.

victoriapriester commented 6 years ago

About the art installation in the main room of hackers, Id like to suggest one particular group of people from Artistania. About the freedom room, I might have a perfect guy, who could be involved, encouraging people to enter and express. Plus he could fill some "empty" spots. Lemme know what u think about that.

slgsson commented 6 years ago

Thanks for the update @victoriapriester ! Do you have a link for the work by the people from Artistania?

Just making sure you've all seen this @chrishobcroft @aogunwole @mariapaulafn

mariapaulafn commented 6 years ago

Hey guys, sorry to rain on the parade but... what's the art installation in the main room of hackers? you mean the culture room? Hackers need to be concentrated so there are 2 places for art: 1 courtyard - taken by sponsor Colony, we might bring one or two music performers to the courtyard too. The other place is the culture room. It is sponsored by Havven for you to have a decent budget. Budget is administrated by Gnosis, who is handling all invoicing, and myself with Chris' supervision. Please be aware of this, in case there are any misinterpretations @aogunwole @chrishobcroft @victoriapriester @slgsson

slgsson commented 6 years ago

Please see picture below for suggested order of the rooms. The following order, as they come in:

Let me know if and how you would like to move it around @chrishobcroft @aogunwole @victoriapriester @mariapaulafn

Love it. Copying Birte on the response. Workshop room will be one of the big ones.

@chrishobcroft @aogunwole @victoriapriester @mariapaulafn I like it. But what is happening in art room? Visuals? Just wanna be sure that at the moment of performance the artist won't be disturbed by something loud from the next room, it's very unpleasant to perform then... For the workshop room, I was talking to Birte, she would like to have the room available all day. So that could be her room. Also, I don't have budget for her anymore. Another thing about her workshop, she would like to have music. Since we can't have anything that don't belong to us, maybe we could pay someone to do live improvisation or original songs while making a workshop. I think Id be able to find someone, but It would have to go from the budget of the workshop room as well. Or how could we solve that? I also wanna ensure about Gema again, are u sure we won't have to pay anything? I mean, I have few artists who are signed at Gema or some similar institution from other country, but all of my artists are playing either original songs or traditional folklor songs (which are gema free). But if they are signed, we will have to send the form with the names and songs. If you have already the Gema authorization back, Id like to see the form, so I can find out more about it as well...

chrishobcroft commented 6 years ago

@slgsson has update on fineartroom here:

https://github.com/decentralizedcultureroom/fineartroom/issues/1

chrishobcroft commented 6 years ago

I have a proposal for Workshop Room from my dear friend Birte:

https://github.com/decentralizedcultureroom/workshoproom/issues/1

She just got back from India, so be gentle with her.

chrishobcroft commented 6 years ago

And the gardeners are getting together for some fun in the nature room:

https://github.com/decentralizedcultureroom/natureroom/issues/1

chrishobcroft commented 6 years ago

Also, what about allowing some "Culture" to spill out of the culture room?

@mariapaulafn can we please find more budget to pay for Nicolas to play piano in main event. Maybe at reception, or in the place where people eat / drink coffee. He's the guy with the piano on wheels who plays it in the street markets of Berlin. He's incredible, and loves Ethereum. @victoriapriester can organise this. He will also display a QR code for people to pay him tips in Ether or any ERC20 token. I will organise this. It'll be super cute. Direct funding of the artist, on Ethereum blockchain. He's also my friend, or as they say in Germany "bekanter" (I don't know if I spelled that right).

chrishobcroft commented 6 years ago

Also, are we doing something in the big area outside the 5 rooms?

Did anyone see if there are still desks there? Or did they move them?

Can we leave lots of finger-paints out, or something nice like that? Can we get a volunteer who wants to do something like this?

slgsson commented 6 years ago

@victoriapriester Art room will be an installation, so no sounds, so it will work well beside the music room.

@chrishobcroft I've not done any work on the big room. The furnitures were still there when Euan and myself saw the room last week. We can find out on Thursday if they will be there or not.

It would also be great if you could update the team on the Freedom room. You and me spoke about it Friday, but think it would be good if the others have the info as well.

@mariapaulafn @aogunwole - Just FYI

victoriapriester commented 6 years ago

@slgsson @mariapaulafn @chrishobcroft I already talked to Nicholas, if we can get the money for him form a different budget, it would be awesome. I could get more performances then. He asked for 250 Euros min. I would very much like to have his piano at the music room though, it would help to keep energy between the sets and also might be interesting to just have it there for people walking in. I was thinking as well that we could also do some presentation of our floor in a different spots of the factory, like "moving piano" or Birte could present her workshop in e.x.20 min show oustide. About the art installation outside the room, as I said earlier, the guys from Artistania have a great exposittions. Saba - the owner of the place, just got back to me saying he's gonna think about it. Let's see if he comes with any suggestion.

aogunwole commented 6 years ago

FYI - for the Nature room, given we are in one of the smaller spaces, I don't think we will have enough room to fill it with enough plants to do the block letter idea for Havven without it feeling too overwhelming. I'd rather focus on making the room more inviting and relaxing to take in nature vs. overfilled with plants just to support the branding. I'll work on creating a cool way of trying to incorporate Havven's brand otherwise but we can discuss during the walk through tomorrow.

mariapaulafn commented 6 years ago

@chrishobcroft @victoriapriester the ceremonies on main events are being organized by core. They will be more hacker oriented. You also have the two larger rooms, should be more than enough. Sorry but the culture room has 8.500 euros, and 5 small rooms, which was much more than what was envisioned at first. Nicholas is cool, but this time we will pass.

mariapaulafn commented 6 years ago

@aogunwole please do so, we need to incorporate havven on one of the rooms, or perhaps create something with plants for the entry hallway with the letters? your room has been the one taking up the least budget so you can have 200 € to figure this out.

mariapaulafn commented 6 years ago

Please @chrishobcroft update on freedom by EOW, otherwise we will need to close a room, at this point everything else in the hackathon has been sorted out, and all details should be finalized by Friday.

mariapaulafn commented 6 years ago

We also need all texts EOW @aogunwole @chrishobcroft @slgsson @victoriapriester because we need to shape it, get the designer on it, and send it to print.

aogunwole commented 6 years ago

@mariapaulafn Adding plants to the hallway with just the lettering may be just as overpowering since it would be gratuitous especially if we have the signage already thanking them as a sponsor. I'm thinking we can do something nice with a projector or other experiential element that is more in line with the nature room and also gives more of a way for people to understand what Havven is and not just show their name randomly.

mariapaulafn commented 6 years ago

Sure, @aogunwole just please make sure they are properly represented

slgsson commented 6 years ago

We can move around the rooms if that helps @aogunwole ?

@victoriapriester @mariapaulafn Did we hear anything back from Birte regarding cutting down the budget?

Might be better to put the workshop in a small room - i.e. switch nature room and workshop room, which will allow for more space for letters, plants etc. It's important that Havven is being showcased properly. Will edit the layout and bring both to meeting, as a suggestion.

Text for Euan's work will be uploaded later today. He'll send something across to me today and then I'll spend some time on it.

aogunwole commented 6 years ago

@slgsson - I don’t think it’s necessary to switch. First, I don’t think we should plan the programming or layout just to fit the needs of displaying a sponsor. I’ve also already started the planning for outfitting the current space.

Second, workshops should have enough space for multiple people to attend and interact which would be better in a larger room.

If the goal is simply to find a way to display Havven more prominently then we could thing about having the branding shown in one of the larger spaces vs. needing it to be in the nature room/ using the block letter idea.

@aogunwole - Super! Completely agree. Just wanted to give the option.

Update on Freedom Room:

https://github.com/decentralizedcultureroom/freedomroom/issues/2

mariapaulafn commented 6 years ago

@aogunwole @victoriapriester @slgsson @chrishobcroft I need a complete list of the people entering for culture - cannot exceed 10 pax. Can't be transferrable. (minus Anton at video and volunteers) Birte has one musician, Euan has one assistant, leaving 6 people (includes Victoria) for the rest of the rooms. Please be responsible with headcount and reduce if needed.

aogunwole commented 6 years ago

No headcount outside of myself for the nature room.

mariapaulafn commented 6 years ago

Hi, I asked for the texts for every room EOW, plus headcount. 3 days ago. We are 5 days before event starts, and I am missing stuff. This is not good. I have Euan + his assistant, @aogunwole, Birte + her musician, Anton for video. I have no concept for the music room, no headcount for the music room. No updates on the freedom room decals @chrishobcroft and they need to be designed (we have designers hired so we won't hire others) and go to print before Tuesday, the volunteers need to prepare that on Friday.

If there is no feedback by the end of the day on these points, I'll just make assumptions and, write the 1 pager incl. music room, send it to print and look after decals myself.

@aogunwole please send out a list of stuff you need for the main table (we have a table in the middle of the hallway we cannot move but Addy will look after it), we need the havven logo cut as well. I will bring art books of various kinds, dystopian books to contrast, and id appreciate anyone that could do the same. A volunteer will make sure these books dont go missing,

slgsson commented 6 years ago

Text for art room and Euan's piece can be found here - https://github.com/decentralizedcultureroom/communications/issues/4#issuecomment-417394591

Main concept for bigger print can be found here, but might still need an updated on participating artists as some of it might have change since my own cut off time which was at at 7pm on Thursday (30/8) - https://github.com/decentralizedcultureroom/communications/issues/2#issuecomment-417301839

mariapaulafn commented 6 years ago

victoriapriester commented 6 years ago

Just added the concept for the music room. @mariapaulafn

victoriapriester commented 6 years ago

Headcounts and names of the final artists will follow. @mariapaulafn

victoriapriester commented 6 years ago

I have 5 artists plus me. Plus one volunteer on the camera/sound/music, is it possible to still pay him from the budget as a volunteer/assistant? Or does a volunteer need to be free from fee? If I understand, the volunteers are not included in final headcounts, right...? @mariapaulafn

victoriapriester commented 6 years ago

Will judges use on of our rooms? If yes, which one and what time? @mariapaulafn @slgsson @chrishobcroft

mariapaulafn commented 6 years ago

@victoriapriester thanks, just made a few style suggestions to the text. The camera is hired, it's anton, he has 6 hours according to budget. A volunteer, by definition, does not get paid. We have 36 volunteers for ETHBerlin, you can request one to simon@ethberlin.com. Only volunteers from ETHBerlin core organization are not counted in your headcount.

mariapaulafn commented 6 years ago

Judges will not use the rooms @victoriapriester, but the culture room needs to close at 3:30pm on Sunday, cause of the prize ceremony of the Hackathon.

aogunwole commented 6 years ago

For the large table, I would like to have the following on display:

@mariapaulafn - I'm adding the section on the nature room now to the doc

Hi Addy, I have 2 or 3 berlin books, a history of the artists and politics in the city, a mies van der rohe in berlin book, and many of local artists. Would be ace if you could take care of the printouts, make at least 500 in black and white - no budget :) @aogunwole

mariapaulafn commented 6 years ago

The rollup with the logo is here and sent to print. It's for outside the room, to mark it. Still figuring out the signs eth berlin_rollup_culture 1

mariapaulafn commented 6 years ago

@aogunwole have you asked Simon for a volunteer for assembly? if not please do so

aogunwole commented 6 years ago

@mariapaulafn - can do re: printout of the brochure. Do you know where the raw file is for the Havven logo to add to the printout?

I'll need everyone's section done by tomorrow morning as I will likely go to the printer tomorrow afternoon.

I'll connect with Simon on setup too.

Thank you @mariapaulafn Id like to know if Anton already specified exact time when he will arrive, Im just curious if he's gonna be there for the evening shows. According to that Ill will or won't have one more artist. Also - can we please get a confirmation that we can bring the UPRIGHT PIANO to the Factory? Id like to avoid some more surprises at the place.

@victoriapriester Anton will be spending 5-6 hours shooting culture room and livestreaming. please specify which times are preferred.

Please send me a photo of how the piano looks like, so i can let you know if this is possible.

victoriapriester commented 6 years ago

@mariapaulafn
This is an example of how upright piano looks like. I don't have the exact pic of Nicholase's one, but it's on the big wheels so super easy to transfer within the factory.

@victoriapriester piano would be okay if it fits in the room ( i have not measured, @chrishobcroft should have) but it cannot enter before 18:30 as people are working on the room next to it. How long will the shows last?

@mariapaulafn - I've finished copy for the nature room so the culture room content should be done.

Re: length, maybe we can keep it at the current length and make this into a short A5 size pamphlet?

@aogunwole I just edited it to two pages, keep it in Courier new for easier readability. I edited all of the rooms to be able to fit, and to make sure the texts don't reveal too much.
