Subject: metasofa artists - creating an alternative web/media production company
hello metasofa friends & family,
seems to me like it's a good time to create (or join) a not-for-profit alternative educational web development & media production company...
the primary work will be web & video documentaries of appropriate technology & eco-village communities, along with the development and hosting of alternative community web apps & services. (for an example, please see this design for an online community currency co-op - http://cv.metasofa.org/ccccc.html)
to collaborate in this work, i'm looking for serious business partners, graphic artists, videographers, programmers, musicians, et al... which could also be the start of (or another project for) a more general artists collective and/or community.
i'd also like to find a campsite closer to tucson (within solar electric biking distance), and continue gardening in the desert and growing other small-scale 'sustainability' projects. (here's something about my current campsite - http://cv.metasofa.org/summer10.html)
if you know of any people or projects that may be related or interested in this (including yourself :) would you please introduce us!
many thanks,
chris vansprouts
