Artists Meeting Minutes Jan. 15th, 2008

In attendance, Daniel Blochwitz, Chris Borkowski, Bethany Fancher, G.H. Hovagimyan, Raphaele Shirley, Lee Wells, Helena Winston

GH talks about the new mediawiki page- http://nujus.net/mediawiki Daniel is excited by the possibility of creating a project he has proposed for the group using the mediawiki. He suggests a one day workshop where the group learns the mediawiki interface and starts the project. GH suggests that we use Eyebeam as a place for a workshop.  Lee Talks about wikipedia and suggests that each person starts a page about someone else in the group.   

GH has a rough edit of the documentary footage for the gumbo@dumbo. He showed it during the informal cocktail part of the beginning of the meeting.  He will bring copies for  everyone for the next meeting.  Lee suggests that the whole group get involved in editing the video.  GH says that a great idea.  

The Whitney Highline schedule is discussed. Lee suggests March 27th as a start date for the project. There is a question about when the pier show and the Whitney Bienniel is occurring, maybe at the same time?  Everyone thinks it’s better to have an April, May, June & July time frame for the project.   There is some discussion about David Little and what exactly was COLAB about and it’s organizing principles.  The discussion then went to expanding the meaning of art and not letting the marketplace dictate the form and structure of art.  It was pointed out that the Whitney is part of the marketplace but the education department is the part we would be operating under.  There was a discussion of  the idea of the artists patron, in this case the Whitney Museum, and what that meant.  It was understood that with the more or less fringe nature of our groups activities, the Whitney would be supporting that type of loose, semi-curated experimental art event.   

Raphaele suggested that if the Whitney didn’t happen we should look for different venues.  Daniel suggested two trees in dumbo may have spaces and gh said LMCC.  He also suggested the New York Cocoa Exchange as a possible site for an intervention. The building is at the corner of Fulton and Front Street and has NYU dorms in part of it.   

Lee talked about the In Transition Show in Yektarinasburg Russia.  He said that the patch Chris created with files for the gumbo@dumbo could be presented as a project by Artists Meeting. There was some discussion about whether to create new work and add more video clips to the database.  This may be worth pursuing and enlarging on.  The Exhibition is scheduled for October 15th .  

GH also talked about possibly presenting Artists Meeting for Ars Electronica and the Split new film festival.  GH also said that he was going to be in Europe from February 5th thru March 17th.   If the Whitney started to happen the other members of the group would need to engage with David Little.  Also Ther was agreement to have a meeting in two weeks instead of three because GH was leaving for Europe in 3 weeks.

Next meeting Scheduled for Tuesday January 29th at 7pm,  GH’s place.
