Hi gang --<br>
<br>
</div>Hurrah -- it's great to see email flying about this!<br>
<br>
Let's try to find a common time to meet at the space to talk about it and see what I have done so far (even if that's just eviscerating a helpless toaster...).<br>
<br>
How about this Friday evening at the space, around 7 pm?<br>

So my<br>
understanding is that we wanted to make swappable molds of a<br>
couple of masks (actually, that the system would stay in the<br>
space to be used by anyone who feels like making molds for<br>
anything, not just masks).<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
It was suggested that we do this at the Dia De Los<br>
Muertos celebration in the E St. Plaza that the DDBA is<br>
holding on Halloween. We also have the opportunity to run<br>
something for "Artober" although I don't know<br>
which dates are still available.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Ultimately it would be nice to have the machine<br>
available at the space - and this is a fire under our feet<br>
to get it done! I hadn't committed to the Dia De Los<br>
Muertos event yet, but if there is sufficient interest here,<br>
and it sounds like there is, maybe I will do that if nobody<br>
objects.<br>

I just finished another mask and<br>
would be up for doing yet another for this project. Would<br>
we have the ability to have multiple molds to swap in an<br>
out? If so it would be cool to have a few people<br>
contributing mask designs.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Also what is the timeline for this? I have<br>
lots going on next month. If we are shooting for<br>
Halloween, that would be doable for me, but I vaugely<br>
remember something about earlier October on this (which<br>
would be harder for me to do). Plus I'm guessing there<br>
would need to be some time to get the mold prepared from<br>
the original piece.<br>

Nice.<br>
<br>
I'm going to try reaching out to the newly forming Third<br>
Space Art Collective to see if there is any interest in this<br>
project from their members.<br>
