Let me know if I am missing something ... I though the retreat was June 13-17th?

Thought I would clarify.

Yea that was first posted some 3 months ago, but Nix is absolutely right..:)

Some updates with 3 weeks to go..

-All 20 of the hexagon screen frames are made, painted, 12, of them ared covered by screen material...
-I have got the Retreat studio room setup and ready to plug into.
-I have gotten all the conduit I think I'll need to cunstruct a 28 foot/3 frequency -Geodesic dome, which will house the 20 hexagon(divided by 5) configuration..

The website still needs to be updated, and I really hope to get on that this week..

As for the Fridaynight Program,
there will be a number of performances/collaborative works shown, and an ambient/downtempo
afterparty, to round out the evening/morning;)

schedualed:
JaneDaPain presents the:
techno_feminist collaborative project..
2 hours of what techno_feminism means to collaborators on the project worldwide..
Look for more info about a webcast for this part:)

ALSO
i/o will performed a live A/V suround set,
made specially for the retreat..

Lastly,
will be the multi-rig setup of the 5 hexscreen mix, with DJ sevin mash up the tribal grooves...

Looks to be interesting to say the least, and with the Theme of "Hexagonalism", it will be great to make the dome into a virtual bee-hive honeycomb visual experience..
