27/01/13 Meeting

Discussions

 * Yiorgos told us about SuperCollider workshop and exhibitions items and his suggestion on a talk on philosophy of science. SuperCollider will probably turn into a workshop on Processing instead because it's easier, but only if we can find participants in advance. George will also not be available during the weekend..
 * Epistemology talk turned into an optional talk as well, cause we found out we have a kinda full schedule already... We'll only start contacting people about it (George has a professor in mind, Antonis knows a student who might have a clue) if we see that we can fit it in the schedule.
 * Rena suggested a very interesting modular workshop about making felt, ceramics and other useful things or works of art that will take place in different places in the city. It will definitely spice up the week's schedule! We're expecting news from Rena, probably within the week.
 * Dafermos suggested we contact Papanikolaou (he can do it) about a talk on open science. We concluded it would be very interesting but we should leave it till we're sure we can fit it in the schedule.
 * Kossifidis also suggested a few people for talks, but we said we'd re-examine if we see that we can fit more things in the schedule
 * Funding - three sources: 1) paypal, flattr donation box and bank account number for donations on the website, 2) crowdfuding campaign - should be designed next week! 3) some Sundays income from Ortakia goes for the festival - a donation box will also be there
 * Ortakia will cover the meals of the people who'll do the talks and workshops (and us?) - Maria and Antonis offered to help with cooking
 * We're not sure if we'll finally be able to use the soap-factory.. Manolis will know till the end of February
 * We'll get offers for printing out posters, leaflets and anything else we need when we have a list of what we need to print. We can also abuse the university for almost anything but the main poster :p
 * Where is Kainourgiakis? :p Are you interested in doing a talk on education?

 * Start booking tickets
 * George offered to buy Bauwens ticket and get a refund afterwards (Bauwens is fine with the dates - easyjet flight from Berlin to Heraklion on April 20th, return on April 23rd, hand baggage only - it's actually 20€ cheaper today than two days ago :p) We'll ask a travel agent or airline for sponsoring Athens to Heraklion tickets, when we have a final number of participants
