Wamminutes 4/6/10

Crystal, Stella, Mila (our youngest member) and Marina convened at Quetzal. We discussed our process for our recent self-portraits and our show at Boneflowers that was just taken down.

For our new project, we have decided to turn the lens outward towards the world around us. Marina suggested an "I heart SF" show for our summer project. The current running idea is to host a visual treasure hunt. WAM will compile a list of items such as "apple, public urination, golden gate bridge, etc." On the day of the hunt, teams will take photographs of the different items on the list. There's a good chance drinking will be involved. That night, everyone will reconvene to display their uploaded images using Marina's projector onto a huge screen/wall (location still to be determined). There will be ballots and winners will be chosen for each item on the list. The winners will be printed and framed and comprise our summer collection.

This is where our brainstorming went. We are open to new ideas, add ons or detractions from this idea, etc.

Our next meeting will be on 4/20/10 at Crystal's house. We will watch "The Cruise" and bring our ideas for the treasure hunt list and at least 2 suggestions for galleries where WAM may show this summer or in the future. I am especially interested in finding a new home for the Super Hero collection which I have plans to collect from Mission Comic and Arts this weekend.

Much Love Wammers!
