Forest BB

chris

are the films known for december? cos the events poster is gonna be made real soon... cleaning the lens - this is likely to be unnecesary as the limit of the resolution is imposed by the format of video (in video the quality of the lens is much less important than in film) and the not the lens. howe...

chris

its a good idea, also good would be if u could see all ur actions at once...(without having to remember and check the minutes of every group)

some kind of actions manager...and calender...

chris

what is forest arts? theres no wg called that is there? is it galleries/visual arts ...?

chris

with the lights off...?

chris

i won this by the way. £311, should be able to get it to e-town in the next coupla weeks. will try and get my friend to pay cash when he picks it up, so that he can quickly check it works ok..

chris

brilliant point chombee. im into it.

chris

what is the decision that is required?

i do not think we should pay them £300 to play. i dont really understand the deal... seem a very dangerous precident..

they are amazingly good though.

chris

cool, i dont feel strongly about this.

but i can easily see the meetings being alternately very boring for those uninterested in computer tech stuff and vice a versa.

chris

surely the normal activities of the cafe should not interfere with the importance of a good film program! :)

chris

close the kitchen completely 10 minutes before films. announce films. close the curtain and hang a sign which says 'film night, kitchen closed, silence if entering, no laptops, and has the film program' - or something like that. switch all lights off. between films, open the kitchen briefly for drin...

chris

by the same token, there is no reason that the cave and building cant be dealt with by the same wg especially as i am in both.

but they are quite distinct and require different skills and interests which not all people share.

chris

this is why i think maybe front of house should be divided up between all groups, i know its a weird idea (maybe even a bad one) but it would mean its very celar which group is responsible for all things on the wall, maybe a list of standard foh responsibilities would help? traditionally they have b...

chris

perhaps, jo and alices may well be into that..

chris

cool, but lets start the mission statements now...

chris

also sounds like maybe computer stuff should be seperate from other equipment? as there isnt really too much in common?

chris

sounds awesome

chris

im gonna bid on this:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Baked-Potato-Oven ... dZViewItem

no one else bid please!

chris

now i cant get too the bottom of really long pages - the scroll bar is not sizing correctly.

chris

improving furniture is another one.

i used to like it when i did front of house.

but its a good point dan makes. what about not having foh as a working group, but figuring out all the responsibilities and dividing them or rotating them between the other groups?

chris

why you not like?

chris

yo sean,

im not sure? i guess internet goes in the website bit, computers being fixed maybe does belong here...?

chris

please can we not call it the 'community working group', how about: 'the non-politically aligned working group', that way it is very clear what it is, and what it isnt.

or you could call it 'ethics and morals'

i think 'community' is too ambiguous.

chris

I always thought of front of house as being day to day appearance and presentation. flowers, candels, sofa covers, arranging furniture. maybe touching up some paintwork if it was fucked up, but not ever actually repainting anything. colour schemes and big changes i think would belong in galleries.

Friday 1 December 11am

chris

wow! someones fixed it!

was it you swithun? or is pogo the faster draw? or has the god of the internet intervened?

nice one ;)

chris

in fact just on the front bb page there are two. to view everything, you need to use both bars..

chris

bastards

chris

cool.

if you go to 'Forest' working group (underneath it says 'this one is private') then on the right hand side there are two scroll bars, this sometimes leads to annoying use...

chris

to buy the coolest kit we can.
to be at the cutting edge of alternative technology.
to fix all things, without wasting too much time.
to one day live in the future.

chris

to improve the physical structure of forest and to co-ordinate and/or facilitate building and maintanance projects (both small and large).

chris

cleaning
fixing broken equipment
accounting and banking money
sorting out bookings
advertising - if neccessary
updating noticeboards

chris

to provide accessible, quality rehearsal and recording space to local musicians.

additional requirements:

pay its rent, generate some money for forest and be self financing (new equipment, repairs etc.)

this is my initial suggestion...

chris

heya,

i cant do that time, but thats ok! i'd just like to know the passwords (i did have them but i've lost them and be able to delete and add photos and change text.

chris

some times there are double rhs scroll bars and i get confused. not sure they are both needed...

chris

present: chris, gareth, pete, swithun(a bit), robin (a bit). agenda: discussed switch to regular meetings. considered working group members pay £3 an hour, others pay £5. online system would be better for fuller use. considered membership scheme. no decision taken yet. new cave users should always b...

new £795 + vat, 1 year warranty..

new price

chris

dishwasher - i have disconnected, but am not removing it, or selling it on ebay. but i think it would be good if these things were done. fire safety - all new volunteers need to sign the form that says theyve been trained in fire safety in the building, and these sheets need to be kept somewhere saf...

chris

i think this ebay one is likely to go for £600 or £700, but that seems to be a fair price. i think this particular model the 'classic compact, from king edwards' is probably the perfect one for us, it goes for around £850 new. is this the same one we've been offered for £680? i am changing my mind o...

chris

how much?

chris

this one?:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Electric-Jacket-p ... dZViewItem

chris

all i object to is the price. i think having potatoes (and seet potatoes!) would be super ace! i reckon second hand you should easily be able to get what you want for <£200, and untill that option is expored properly it is a bad idea to buy one new.

chris

i see. is the one you are thinking of like this: http://www.kingdomcateringequipment.biz/product_info.php?products_id=301&osCsid=4ef1eaeb0f418382ba12c38c24546357 these units should just plug into the mains and require no special wiring. but basically a small oven and some banmaries would do the same...

chris

a regular oven, we could probably get for free (or less than £100), and would also have a compartment for keeping warm (the grill bit). and also could be used for caseroles, cakes etc. etc etc.

there is nothing special about a baked potatoe oven particularyly is there?

chris

i think thats far too much money.

chris

we prob would get away with it, but the restrictions are the same (i think). and it will need to be wired directly to the mains in some hard core way i imagine.

chris

would be great, but does it not require ventilation etc. cos its an oven?

chris

this is beyond good. these peoples are actually on an extremely high level.

chris

subversive choppers urban legion.. http://www.scul.org Most engineering goes on the axiom that form follows function. This is not the case with the bicycle chopper. We let form prevail, and make the function happen forcefully. If we tried to create efficient, easy to pilot machines the result would ...

chris

great idea. commission infoseed to make us a good one, for not much money?

chris

heya, i think is nice to make another forest cd. but i think 1000 is way too many, if you add up all the cds sold buy forest for all artists since we opended, it is probably not even 100. so i think to make this many is a waste of money (at this monent). if we do things right, then one day we may ne...
