The SA Free Culture Tour is incoming.. bringing with it the world-changing brilliance of Jimmy Wales and Lawrence Lessig (little confession: I leapt around the office like a demented fool when I heard: hunters of genius evidently have different stars in their celebrity constellation.. this doesn’t make EVERYONE’S heart pound faster but for us online mainliners, it’s huge!) There are talks at the various universities and at the Internet Society of SA ..and then there’s a PARTY!!
Heather Ford & the iCommons crew with the crowdsourced creativity & logistics of the community’s event meisters, artists, musicians and more are slinging together a classic South African Bringn’Braai on the 20th of April 2007 at the Armchair Theatre in Obz right here in the little mothercity.
PS. If you’re a musician PLEASE consider contributing some beats to the Free Music Project - it’ll get into the ears of little ones around the world all wrapped up with the One Laptop per Child project
PPS. the braai aspect of this event is the burning of some of the Commons’ music feast with the Freedom Toasters supplied. The spirit of sharing back from the (Grateful) Dead still rocking it hard
Wow that is huge, have fun with that! Let us know how it goes. Could it be that Max is a Deadhead?
LOL!!! could be David, you know I’m a fairly unusual kinda gal so it wouldn’t be entirely leftfield..
esp. since I believe they just got it so right in terms of marketing and community building. The music industry is s l o w l y awakening to the Dead’s counterintuitive brilliance.
World domination by sharing & caring ..how odd %-)
