Crisis, Creativity, and Cooperation Beyond the Fringe event page is up

Do we have some kind of blurb, a text announcement? The image is great, but I need a text to reach my people…

Hi @Gennifrey_Edwards and thanks for sharing! There’s language you can share on the event page: Crisis, Creativity, and Cooperation | Cosmos Cooperative

I shared the page with both Scott and Sushant, and each replied that it was exciting and they are sharing it with others.

I think it would be good if people can RSVP (free). We should have this almost set up on our own site (pending updates from our tech partner WisdmLabs), but perhaps we should also mirror the event to Eventbrite or another site where we can list it.

Totally agree re: RSVP @madrush ! Any idea of how long it might take to hear back from WisdmLabs? I’d be happt to set up an Eventbrite listing now rather than wait (the headcount will be nice but also an attendee list we can use for reminders and follow-up). I wonder if can add a clear “RSVP (Free)” button on our own event page linking out to it, so we don’t have to duplicate all the content there.

Once native RSVP is ready on our site, we could decide to migrate or keep using Eventbrite alongside it for the extra discovery possibilities.

Do we have an Eventbrite account? I’d rather use the social email account since I need general access to that.

I will ask my people to RSVP too… I already sent out the invitation. Essentially to 3 people, my brother along with the CEO and CFO of his company.

Hello team @madrush @care_save @ellenkdance @Gennifrey_Edwards I’m dying to know how the event went!!! Any chance we can have a quick call so I can hear about highlights (and lowlights too)? Also, did anyone manage to take some pictures? I’d also love to send out a follow up email to folks who attended. Let me know! I’m around today and ready to take action :slight_smile:

We have some video footage, not complete but partial. And some photos. The event went well. Only six people came, but several of those were potential investors and perhaps collaborators also. Kayla and Marco put together a little marketing brochure at the last moment that was quite lovely. We will send you the footage as soon as we organize it! Some great discussions took place!

Okay. Thanks for sharing @Gennifrey_Edwards ! Are you able to share some of the photos soon? I’m hoping to include them on the weekly newsletter which I’d love to send out before EOD but I could also wait until tomorrow if that means I can include a few shots.

Let’s put everything in this one folder: https://cloud.cosmos.coop/f/127741

This is under Publishing > MARKETING > EVENT PHOTOS in the Cosmos Cloud.

Also, I dashed this off as a quick write-up:

Crisis, Creativity, and Cooperation (Beyond the Fringe) took place at Conscious Lab in downtown Vancouver, BC, with a small-group deep dive exploring our personal and collective meaning making and creative responses to the many crises we are experiencing on the planet at this time. The Cosmos crew split up into multiple mythic personas to engage participants in playful (and yet, given the subject matter, meaningful) dialogue. Gennifrey played Diviner of the Good; C. was the Diviner of the True; and Marco was Diviner of the Beautiful. Ellen, meanwhile, played a Dancing Transformational Spirit of Embodiment, moving us out of words only and into our bodies in space. Participants got to talk about what crisis means to them personally, while our Diviners brought out common threads and themes, as we invited our guests to be integrators with us. The Cosmos crew each also shared our own creative offerings of poetry, spoken word, and movement. We got some great energy and positive feedback from attendees after the event, and look forward to being in dialogue and hopefully working together with some of our guests. Thanks to the Conscious Lab for hosting us, and to everyone who attended!

Note, @Fileon, I made a few small edits and corrections to what I chatted you. Feel free to revise how you will, and also incorporate others’ perspectives and language.

I can’t figure out how to add my photos and videos. I click on the plus sign of the cloud file where I see Marco’s photos. I choose photos and I select from my library and then there is no way to share them on the file. I am using an iPad. Help!

I was able to upload myphotos but notthe video. You need to do only a few at a time. You hit the Add button at the top and after a moment you should see a load circle filling up. For video, it should be the same process, and looked like itwasworking, but nothing appeared on the site. There is a type option that I tried, setting it to video, but that also failed. For video I am stuck.

I think you hit the plus sign, select the photos, then hit the Add button…

Thanks, everyone for sharing shots. I am looking for a good group picture and at this moment, I only see one with everyone in it. I might just use that car shot! What a stunning setting.

Hi @ellenkdance ~ If you’ll add everything into a shared folder in your Photos app, then share the folder with me (marco@zoosphere.com, for Apple iCloud), I’ll download your photos and upload them with all the others.

Hi team. Sadly I wasn’t able to share the newsletter today because the test email I sent myself is not showing any of the images. I reached out to Calix for help and hope that we will sort out the problem tomorrow. I’m using that great shot of all of you int he car. It’s warm and fun. Let me know if anyone wants me to include anything else besides that shot and Marco’s writeup above!

The car one is fine. C took some shots on her camera but she is currently off the grid. When she reappears in about a week or so we will have more photos but I do think the car one is fun!

I’m still attempting to share photos and 3 complete videos of Marco, Gennifrey and Corrine doing their shares.

Hi @ellenkdance, I’ve added the photos and videos you shared with me into the folder here: https://cloud.cosmos.coop/index.php/f/127741

Yay, Great.
