On behalf of the Burning Man Arts and the 2015 Global Art Grant Committee,

extend the invitation to submit a full proposal.
Your next steps:

In our online application, you will have the opportunity to tell us

and cut and paste your answers into the online application form when ready.

proposal.
A complete proposal includes:

Sharing for those of you not on Facebook - phone numbers for further
communications included:
1.
I nominate myself for the post of Chief Communications Officer.
2.
Today's communications:
We have a whole lot of drinks left over from the Hardware Party (unless
someone drunk it all / forgot to put some in the fridge, both of which are
strong possibilities).
I suggest we meet at the hackerspace after the Space Exploration
Organisation event <https://www.facebook.com/events/639675696144420/>
(linked below, so say between 8-9?), which it'd be good if some of us went
to since we're thinking of working with them to organise Space Apps 2015!
(I've got a work thing so I can't go, but I think Costas will).
My personal plan is to catch up with y'all around 9-9:30 where-ever (my
number is 99586369)
Constantinos has the key, but there's something going on with his phone
(99606547) so be prepared for some analogue turbulence :D
3.
N.S. is back on the island / aboard the spacecraft so some moderate
partying is order..
Uhura out
tl;dr We can produce quality written content. Can we publish the Volume 1 of our magazine on January 18th?
Hi all,
I am amazed by the momentum projects we had proposed before bring to hack66 (e.g. Functional Hardware Exchange Party!).
Opening this thread to discuss our communal magazine.
Why on 18/1?
hack66 was seeded on 18/6/2013. On 18/1 we are celebrating one year and a half. Plus:
66 / 18 = 3.666666...
18 / 66 = 0.272727...
Format: Plain text.
Distribution: Published at our wiki and shared via emails and torrents.
Citations: [0]
Language: English, Greek, Turkish.
Collaborative articles: We can use http://pad.hack66.info/ for that.
Guest articles: From other hackerspaces and groups.
Topics: Up to you, ideally our projects.
See you on January 14 :)
Cheers
