[Bristol-artivist] state

[mantxo martinez]

Nice postings Carrie and Sophie:
the thing is taht it's not the first time - the March
meeting/workshop was the same with only me and a new
person turning up... or you remember when you came for
first time that I was late and no-one else was
there... (att least it has been good to meet some
people - and some days (3?) have been very inspiring).
I feel prety much left with the responsability and I
don't mind if things are happenening, but everything
that we talk about is not (exhibition, street
stencils, murals... the workshop at Information for
Action was also to be organised collectivelly).
I am up for continueing but only if there is people
and people REALLY want to develop things and work
collectivelly. Otherwise I have plenty in my plate.

We'll see...
Black material: there may be some at kebele.... I'll
check for you (us)

(When is the Southmill exhibiition?)
(I can't make it on Tuesdays -I look after my son
until 6pm... sorry, Sophie, it sounds a great idea)
love
martin
