Multi core, we have a 24chanel desk and a dodgy 6 channel Multicore.
we need more. 15m? 8 (or more) channels? XLR, should be portable.

lockable box for mics etc.

Blackout Curtains.

AP: Gandolf to measure the windows.






Hall action day.


AP: Mike. explore what activities are limited by Forest insurance.
AP: Mike to find solutions to buzzword issues

what part of the hall, above and beyond AF Sound Team equipment maintenance, would now be an AF responsibility? fixing windows/wiring/etc i take it? was there anyone specifically responsible for this before, or is this just a responsibility boundary/framework that wasn't explicitly stated before?

on screenprint - can anyone confirm what the situation is with rescheduling workshops from the Crafty Room to the Action Room? has gio fillled lukas in on this?

on the cave - what's the situation with the return of the Forest Jam?

hey, if you don't like it, post on the BB (so you can ask about participating for better) | MilkMiruku

The Hall has always been an Admin/Building Manager responsibility. But now "Forest Up Venue coordinator" is an EVS role. Bookings, promotion, maintainance are now their responsibility. There will be a "formal" project outline soon.

thanks!

Measurements of curtain sizes for hall windows:

3 windows:
6 metres high x 3.6 m wide
This is for a single curtain across the widest part of each opening and overlapping wall on sides, above and below.

1 window (mostly obscured by balcony):
top: 2m high (above balcony)
bottom: 2.3m high (below balcony)
This is for a single curtain across the widest part of each opening and overlapping wall on sides, above and below.

Note: If curtains are to be 2 pieces opening centrally there needs to be an additional overlap.

Gandolf

About the black out curtains, is there anyone who is up for ? good at finding grants for the costs of the curtains aswell as a good and cheap place to make them?

would be great if someone hade some nice advice or was up for doing it

cheers
