How to organize an EFSPACM project

First thing, it's best to be in our facebook group, https://www.facebook.com/groups/680430459199270 - after some time you probably are going to feel the atmosphere, and perhaps you will not only want to take part in projects, but to organize one yourself. Although it's lots of fun and gives a lot of satisfaction, it also requires lots of work and responsibility. Neal D Retke : I think the organizational aspect should be determined by the person creating the event. Different things work better for different people, and one's technique may be unsuitable for another - I think if a project is unclear or fails to get off the ground ( which I've had happen here ) it should be up to the organizer as to how to handle it - I think everyone here shares the idea of wanting the projects to be successful, so if there are problems the group seems willing & able to help out with them - Personally, I think that every one creating a project here should create it as a FB " Even...

Interview with Sze Tsang

1) Who are you? samarobryn, aka Sze Tsang :) I am a composer, musician, performer, academic researcher...also dog parent, succulent grower and FFXIV player.  2) Can you describe your surroundings? It's a lovely, clear Makuru day in Perth, Western Australia. Typical of this period, there is a distinct cold bite in the air. Sunlight is streaming through the windows. My dog, Nira, is asleep on the couch with a blanket.  3) Where would you like to go? To bed ;) It's one of those days...More seriously - if there is one place I could visit right now, it would be Antarctica. I've always been fascinated by that place. It's brutal, but also beautiful, and such an alien landscape. Amazing wildlife and geographical features.  4) What would you say are the main features of your creative process(s)? A lot of the time, I ask myself: how does something - a theme, a place, an idea - make me feel? Then I think about how I might express my feelings through sound.  The primary feature ...

Interview with Mike Fuchs

1) Who are you? Mike Fuchs/Yellow Salamand’r... and I’m still learning who I really am. 2) Can you describe your surroundings?   Small village rural. Generally peaceful. 3) Where would you like to go?   Wherever the path leads. The journey is most exciting part for me. 4) What would you say are the main features of your creative process(s)?   Simplicity. Obscurity. Insouciance. 5) What do you really want your audience to understand about you/your art?   I don’t wish to impart my vision on others. It’s so much more intriguing for an audience to create their own perspective. Keep ‘em guessing. 6) Does audience matter?   I create, because I have to. It’s my release. So essentially I do it for me, but clearly audience response... good or bad... is invigorating. Final answer... no/yes😉. 7) Why Resist?   Depends entirely on the circumstances. 8) Why do you do it?   I have to, for my sanity. 9) What drives you?   I just cannot ignore the desire  to...
