elaboration of first meeting

thank you Cory for posting meeting notes. i would like to elaborate a bit.

- on the subject of the Collective Manifesto:
before beginning the Manifesto we request that All members post to this blog what they want from and for the Collective.
after this, we will begin discussions to come up with a finalized piece of text.

- and member qualifications:
Anyone may join. however, in order to remain a member of the Collective you Must attend all meetings (unless that is found to be Absolutely Impossible), you Must be creating work, and you Must be putting forth efforts for the growth and advancement of the Collective.

- yes, we are International!:
thanks to Alex, we are going International. while I am studying in New Zealand we will be having a show there. we are currently working on the proposal for that show.
we have two international members: Mishca Hill and Emily Hlavec. clap for them.

- on the subject of holiday break meetings:
Anyone who is in Kansas City over winter break is Required to attend regular Collective meetings.
the times & dates of these meetings will be posted here, Facebook, emailz, and telephonez.





In order to post to this blog please either Email (lboehr@kcai.edu) me, Call/Text (816 695 1757) me, or speak to me in person and i will give you the log-in information.





Thank you Sarah for posting!
Thank you ALL AND GOODNIGHT FOR NOW!

Salutations, fellow Collectivists!

My name is Sarah Elizabeth Taylor, and my interests here are creative, collaborative, and curatorial in nature: I relish the thought of laboring alongside a group of dedicated fellow photographers in pursuit of our collective ends. I believe that we are better together, that interdependence is far superior to lonely independence, and that artists with similar talents and aspirations may benefit from the scintillating interaction found within a focused group context. I am looking forward to working with all of you!
