SL is a haven for the wierd, the creative, the extremely personal, the physically impossible, in other words...the Fringe.
I (and a partner - see below) are going to organize a several day Fringe Festival so that these "little guys" can get some attention that they would otherwise not have - this is not to prop up already established places. Entries will be restricted to 1024 m^2 or less - this is not big business after all. There will be audience-judged categories such as:
- Best in Show
- Biggest insult to reality
- Educational
- Most Hilarious
- Best "in motion"
- Mature
The festival, as of right now, will likely consist of a moving tour, with 10-20 minutes at each location. None of this is set in stone as of yet though, because details need to still be worked out. This will likely take place just before the end of August, so people will have time to build and test.
So: I am looking for someone who wants to help organize the Festival. There's going to be alot of stuff to do and its better if there are two people who are available to do it. Whoever this person is, I emphasize it is a PARTNER - an equal, not an employee - someone to collaborate with and bounce ideas off of. Preferably you have a little experience building, but more preferably scripting (I am the other way around), and are enthusiastic about the fest. Alot of organization will be involved with entries, scheduling, and audience voting. Also, Its a plus if you have some land that can be temporarily transformed to a Fringe Fest HQ. I have some myself, but it might be better to have two headquarters. E-mail me and tell my a little bit about yourself, and what ideas you have for the Fest.
My e-mail is: monkeyenterprises@gmail.com. Please do not e-mail me with entries now, only if you are interested in being my partner, or you have suggestions or questions about what I want to do with the Fringe Fest.
NOTE: I'm gone to my cottage for the next 3 days, so don't expect a response immediately. Let the email simmer for a bit.
