In t he spirit of disruptive ideas and breaking down barriers we ask\, "\ ;How can art and technology and the synergy of the two address humanity' s next evolutionary step?"\; Four categories of work will address th ese questions and collectively speak to the power of human ingenuity. We invite artistic and technological creators to submit their work that ad dresses human survival in an era of interspecies evolution\, revolution\ , and devolution. \;\n \;\nArt and technology are two words that f or many represent vastly different worlds\, and for generations have lar gely existed along parallel\, yet non-convergent lines. But now the pote ntial for unprecedented collaboration is here. Ever-evolving technologie s allow us to share ideas across borders\, both geographic and symbolic. Such potential for shared ideas has helped break down long standing sil os that for generations inhibited expansive thought and human progressio n. \;\n \;\nThe lines are now blurred. Creators of all sorts now h ave public space to mutually ponder where we've been\, where we are\, an d where we're going. By sharing once segregated perspectives\, we can se e the world through a different lens and evolve as a species like never before. \;\n \;\nE= m4 humanity - Submissions will fall into one o f four conceptual areas: \;\n \;\nMomentum: captures the inertia a nd velocity of human innovation \;\nMaintenance: captures the drive for ecological and human preservation \;\nMultiplicity: captures the boundless potential of human convergence \;\nMobility: captures the facilitation of human movement and idea exchange \;\nhttp://tinyurl. com/yelpreview08\n\nTags: art\, technology\, sao\, software association of oregon\, user groups\, free\, public\, party\, networking\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250455773 URL:http://tinyurl.com/art-tech08 SUMMARY:Equilibrium: The Human Mash Up LOCATION:Olympic Mills Commerce Center: 107 Se Washington St\, Portland O R 97214 US SEQUENCE:0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20100304T175947Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20100311T203000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20100311T173000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20100304T175947Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20100304T175947Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250458388 DESCRIPTION: \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\n Thursday\, March 11th\, 2010 \;\n 5:30pm - 8:30pm \;\n Location: Ren aissance on the Riverfront \;\n 136 SW Washington Ave. \;\n Corv allis\, Oregon 97333 \;\n Google Map \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\ n \;\n RSVP TO: SAO by emailing sao-coordinator [AT] corvallis.sao.or .us or on the Willamette Innovators Network \;\n \;\n $5 for SAO members or students\, and $15 for non-members \;\n \;\n Inclu des finger food and no-host bar \;\n AGENDA: \;\n \;\n 5: 30 - 6:15: Business Networking Time with finger food\, no host bar \; \n 6:15 - 6:25: 30-Second Mic (give us your technology business elev ator pitch!!) \;\n 6:45 Program: PANEL - Increasing Your Business Through Social Media: What's Important and Why You Should Care \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\ n \;\n PROGRAM: \;\n \;\n Social Media Panel -- Increasing Yo ur Business Through Social Media: What's Important and Why You Should Ca re \;\n \;\n Social Media is here.
