''"Time is a Jet Plane and it Moves Pretty Fast" - Bob Dylan''


I have put up the web page with our pictures and statements on - not visible to the public at the moment. Need photos from April and Lea please.

This page will be linked from the IDAC front page and I will put in links to everone's gallery and content pages under their blurbs. You can put more information on your individual content (text) pages but if you want to have a contact phone number or email or web site URL on the overview page please send it to me and I will insert it.

I have scored one projector so far from a generous sponsor for the duration of the show with a back projection screen. Still looking for another high pwere one. If anyone knows where we can get another  - LMK.

Have sorted out the newsletter process (mostly) on this site and looks OK on the email clients I have tried it with so far. I will send it out to all exhibitors fairly soon with a link back to here, so if you have any issues or comments reply to these posts.

The invite is designed and is being printed as we type. I will email JPEGs of front and back to all of you so that you can forward then on to everyperson and their dogs. I will also put copies into the site's file gallery for ongoing availability. 

This "Exhibition Progress Diary" forum, might work better as a blog - I will put it up as a blog as well to see. At the moment it is only visible to logged in members.

If anyone has digital arts related websites that they like, you can enter them in the "DigArtLinks" section. Collective improvement of the site's resources would be good.


Later - or sooner ATCMB

''Re the opening night:''

Consensus seems to be the Thursday night, so unless anyone knows any other high profile event happening on that day, let's lock that in.


__Opening night is Thursday 25 March 6:30pm__

I have put this into the [http://www.idac.org.au/tiki-calendar.php?viewlist=table|calendar>>]



About the title of the show, there were  a few suggestions but a decision has been 90% made with the title to be:


!Killa Bytes


If anyone has serious reservations about this let me know sooner.


I am still hunting for projectors and or LCD screens. If anyone knows where one could be borrowed (for minimal or no cost)for the duration of the show send contact me please.


Set up will be on Monday 22 and Tuesday 23 March. I plan to make a start at 10am on the Monday. 


!!!Security

The normal Key procedure for opening project may have to change if we have a few projectors and other valuable electronics in this show. I will discuss this with Andrew Hulme (Project Chairperson).

Nearer the time, we need to sort out who is going to sit Project for the various days that the show is open. It works out pretty much to a day each, which can be done as a day each or two half days depending on people's commitments. I realise that some of us have other commitments at this time of the year which I am sure can be accommodated.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Exhibition opens on 24 March. Set up on the Monday and Tuesday beforehand. Opening on the Friday night at 6:30 pm.

At the moment the __Artist list__ is:

Andrew Netherwood
Kurt Brereton
Brogan Bunt
April Griffiths
Gino Chiodo
Dulcie dal Molin
Lea Williams
Roz Batten
Steve Grabner


__Tasks List__

(There is a tasking system with this website, where tasks are listed and can be open - for volunteers - or sent to specific people. Like a mini database. Is a bit complex. Let me know if you want to give it a try)



Get your best artworks prepared and professionally presented - of course!


Pay rental fee to Project - $960 (Give me the money!)

Organize Publicity - invites, artist's statements, press releases etc

Buy drinks for Opening night
Prepare nibbles for Opening night - artists please?
Find a kind soul with a license to serve drinks on opening night
Entertainment for opening night? Digital musos?

Organize the roster for who sits the gallery on which days (I will put slots in the IDAC calendar so that there is a visible roster on this website)

 

__Show Title__

Other thing that we should probably decide soon is the title of this show.
 
Suggestions welcome - some from me to start.

Digital Analog(ue)s
Digitalis Magnificus
Dd*!#gg/it_lll  Ahh>r?tt:s
Illawarra Digital Arts Collective Group Show

            <description><![CDATA[The website is a CMS (Content Management System) which runs from a database. One of the main attaractions for me, with my Web Designer's hat on, is that once the structure has been set up, most of the content can be added by the users themselves. THe users can create and link pages as they want to (within reason), so it can be an evoving organic process.


To be able to make any changes, users have to have an account. This is because if the interactive parts of the site are left open, it makes it easy for spammers and other undesireables to flood the database with junk and worse. This is based on bitter experience, having lost sites to such attacks. (A curse on them)


Do not be intimidated by the site - it is relatively straight forward to use and you will notice that you have a lot more options when you have logged in.


Account holders will be able to create and edit their own Image Galleries, Blogs, Articles, Files and home pages so if you do not already have your own website, you can use this space as a small web prescence. 



I am in the process of putting up some simple tutorials, to get users started but you can always go and have a look at the official documentation at [http://doc.tikiwiki.org/tiki-index.php|TikiWiki]


You can send me a private message through the "Contact Us" menu link or an emai if you find me in the tracker or my profile.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Here obviously is a place to discuss the finer points of digital art in an enlightened, courteous and respectful manner. Please keep it civilised. 



As with all things on this website you will need a login and password to be able to post to the forums. Contact Andrew.


Members of IDAC will be able to create new topics, reply, comment etc. Keep image sizes to a minimum if you want to include them in a forum post - say max 400px on any side. If you want to discuss larger images, UL to an Image gallery and link to it.


If you have A LOT to say or present, use the Articles section. This sections is also useful to view and edit longer written pieces between various people - a sort of editorial process.


When uploading your images to the Image Galleries, prepare them as JPEGs with a maximum side length of 800px. Larger thatn this becomes too unwieldy for the visual layout and too resource intensive if there start to be a lot of images. If yu want to show off a large/ detailed image, post it into a file gallery and provide the link to it so interested viewers can download it. Put an 800px version in the image gallery if you want or a 400px version in a forum post or blog.


If you want to discuss how the website works, or doesn't, put those issues into the Website forum. NB this will only be visible when logged in.


Please treat the website and other users with respect. If you must criticize or have some issue to raise, do so constructively. It would also be "collective" if registered users contributed something to the website other than their own images and information (which they are welcome to do), so that we widen the boundaries of art generally, not just digital art.]]></description>
