Hello collabbers!
I'm not around at the moment--in Malaysia, actually--but I just wanted to see how things are going, if anything's going, and to--cough--promote--cough--my own blog, so you know what I'm up to, etc. Add me as a friend, thelittleblogofthesea.blogspot.com and please comment! Hope all's well for you across the world.
See you soon,
Mitzi

SHOW
Hey everyone, I just wanted to wish you all the best
as the show comes together. I wish I could have
been involved again this year, but this school has
consumed me whole. Can't wait to see the work.
GOOD LUCK!

Co/lab show, the prelude.
We are down to the last week everyone! As exciting as it is with the show being 2 Saturdays from now., We have a bunch of work to do so that can happen. I am holding the regular meetings this week plus and extra extended Co/Lab workshop this weekend at my house. If you have been planning to contribute to Co/Lab this is certainly the time. I will be compiling the projects on Tuesday, June 10th. We will begin to load in on June 11th.The ABSOLUTE latest possible day to submit something for the show will be June 13th. Note on people who submit something on the 13th: I will not be able to help you set up your project at Olipom. , so you will have to make y our own arrangements. Don't wait until the n to submit work or help with projectts. Use this week to catch up! Sermon over.
I am so excited to see what we have to show for this year!

PORTRAIT PROJECT UPDATES
sup ya'll.
so people seem to be getting confused about how this is going and who has who and all this garbage, so im hoping i can clean everything up a little.
SIZE: tabloid (11"x17") - vertical orientation!
MEDIA: anything! computer printout, hand drawn, painted, whatever.
STYLE: anything again! the only restriction is that the composition of the person doesn't stray very far from the origin idea of them oriented in the center of the work. this, besides the size and the frames for the work, will be the only consistent part of the project.
SUBMISSION: please bring your finished works to any of the CO/LAB meetings to have them either re-distributed or submitted as a final work to be framed and hung in the show.
GETTING A PERSON'S PHOTO: i have all of the initial 11 photos. scroll through the list of posts to see them, and when you choose someone, if you dont already have their photo, i can send you the high res version of it. again: drcroda@ucdavis.edu
List of peoples pictures on the left!!! List of people working on those pictures on the right!!!
if you dont see your name on the left, please take your picture at a high resolution and email it to drcroda@ucdavis.edu.
if you dont see your name on the right, please leave a comment on this post so that we can have you get your photo claimed so that two people dont end up accidentally working on the same portrait.

12. Co/Lab monster --------- Everyone!
.For the CO/Lab monster, i am going to be making a large lightly outlined print of this and bringing it to the thursday meeting next week so that everyone can start filling it in and adding to it however possible to make the ultimate collaborated portrait of our logo to hang in the center of the photos.
here again is the basic layout of how this will all look on the wall:
i will hopefully have some materials with me next week too to begin building the frames for these photos. suggestions on how this should be created are appreciated. they can either be painted strips of plywood that are put together to make a frame, or out of mat board. it doesnt really matter, just as long as these all look relatively similar as well.
comment, comment, comment, and keep working!
thanks everyone.

22 days until project deadline!
Hey everyone,
Our show date is approaching rapidly and we have much work to do still! If you haven't been showing up to the meetings lately, now is the time to get involved again. Take your mind off of midterms/finals with a couple hours of collaboration. I will be making it easier than ever to participate, as I will be setting up project work stations at my house for the workshop meeting tomorrow. It is not too late to help get projects off the ground, and don't feel like you have to do it all by yourself. Please contact me to help you, I do not have any schoolwork! Co/Lab is my main focus right now so I am here to help you with stuff, if you have an idea please let me know. I must humbly insist that if you wish to have a project up in our next show that you at least stay in touch with me about your progress, because I have to plan out the spacea and if I do not hear from people who are interested in participating, I have to assume that they do not want to have work up. Co/Lab is completely reliant on the participation of its members and if nobody does anything, we don't have a show! Let's not let Olivia down, because she is doing us a favor by giving us Olipom's space and bumping out other artists who wish to have work up in there. This will be an exciting show, so come do something besides classwork and let the world see our collaboration. I would not be saying this if I didn't respect the caliber of work that I have seen from people in Co/Lab and I would love to give them an outlet for their hard work. I apologize for this long winded post, but I am passionate about this group and want to see us through a successful second show! Anyway, next meeting is Tuesday at 7, be there or be^2. Peace!

2nd Saturday and what's next
Hey Everyone,
Well we sold some sock monkeys at Olipom this weekend. We still have several left, and we plan to sell them on campus and on our show date. The space is really cool, and Olivia is excited to work with us on setting stuff up. We still have a month to complete our projects (see list below) and I am going to be working on some advertising materials, with the help of everyone else of course! Starting now we will be working to update the look of this blog for the show, making handbill flyers and doing a few guerrilla marketing campaigns to spread the word. Please talk to your friends and let them know the show date: June 14th. Now is the time to come to meetings and work together to get our projects done before June 9th. Also, if you haven't already, get photos of collabers to work on for the portrait project. You can get them from Devin or from me. The next meeting is Tuesday at 7 at my house! Hope to see you all there!
