The organizers of the Human Rights Festival from last December have contacted me about their projects in 2009:
Earth Day - 22 April 2009
Peace Train - August 2009 (dates to be confirmed)
Human Rights Day - 10 December 2009
Imagine Festival - 9 October 2009
While I'm sure they would welcome your involvement in any of these, we spoke primarily about the Imagine Festival in October. The point of this festival
is to "imagine a future where we have solved the big problems facing our world and how we got there."
They are looking for creative minds. From their note to Musicians:
"People will only leave their old thinking behind and open up to new hope and possibilities if artists help!
We're going to run discussions on solutions every Thursday at 2pm. We'd love musicians and artists to come, to start getting some ideas for creative work. Just imagine!
Please keep in touch through Medora Chevalier, Junivers Stockholm or Any1 Gynoid; join the Rings Discussion Group in SL, the Imagine Network on ning (http://www.imaginenetwork.ning.com) or the Imagine Festival group on Facebook. We are setting up subscribomatic too."
If you are interested or know others who might be, there will be a brainstorming meeting Thursday Feb 12 at 2pm, at New Xanadu Sky Palace, Caribbean Palms (135, 31, 790).
