SANE Meeting Tuesday, October 16

Yay! It's time for the first meeting of the year!!! Gosh, it seems like years since the LobsterPalooza! Umm, lobster! Oh, sorry, I lost myself for a second...

So more folks can make it on Tuesday, October 16 (which is a week from several days ago), and Ms. Pam has offered to host us again, and we have some concensus on a project, so, hey, let's get together and make some bendy people!

You're invited:
When: Tuesday, October 16, 7:00pm
Where: Pam A's dining room
Project: Bendy people/shelf people/paper people/martha people, etc.

papercraft -- paper people who sit on your shelves
martha people
 -- martha stewart's take on shelf people - requires roof flashing (soft metal)

string puppets -- fine art puppets (scroll down beyond wood fella)

We'll make people who can sit (to pick a place) on your shelves, refrigerator, atop your old CRT TV, mantlepiece, windowsill, etc. They are basically one-dimensional, folded (at the waist and knee, say) to create an illusion of three-dimensionality and support their sitting habits.

What to bring: paper, colored paper, photos, xerox copies of faces/body parts, glue, cardboard, roof flashing (optional), the usual array of cutting and drawing/inking tools and some idea whose bodies you want to immoralize [sic] in craft.

And it's been several years since we last got together, so make some notes from now until Tuesday of things that have happened to you and yours in the intervening time, so you can be sure to keep us updated!

And we'll want to plan out some meetings in the future, so think about when you want to get together in November, December, and/or a December Seasonal SANE Repast.

Hope to see y'all Tuesday!
