One week left to submit your audio idea to be broadcast from the Foshay! Northern Spark approaches quickly, and we’re still seeking audio submissions for Station Identification, our one-night project on the observation deck of the Foshay Tower in Minneapolis, MN. We’ll be broadcasting live all night from 9pm June 4th to 6am June 5th, so we’ve got plenty of air time to fill. Some ideas: Come to the Foshay the night of and tell a story, sing, or do whatever it is you do. Send us some music you’ve been working on. (We’ll be streaming it so you don’t have to worry about downloads!) Send us that amazing audio recording you made with your smartphone and have no idea what to do with. Anything really, just as long as it’s sound! The deadline is in one week (Monday, May 30th). See the call for submissions for more info, or email your idea to “notioncollective” at gmail.  (photo: Daytime view from the Foshay observation deck by Jennifer Arave) [ reposted from The Notion Collective ]

Had a wonderful visit from Michael this weekend. Here he is, droppin’ some knowledge after we encountered a childrens’ gamelan orchestra at the Lake Harriet band shell.

"One features an image of a rabbit that Beuys noticed on a sugar packet while dining at Nye’s Polonaise Room in Minneapolis. Enlisting the help of his dinner partners, he searched the sugar supply on each table, as well as in the restaurant’s storeroom, for as many packets as he could find."

Joseph Beuys in Minneapolis

Notes, June 15, 2010

"New York is the most innocent town in the world. It looks as if it were made of children’s building blocks, and the shops have a naive glamour that I remember from the Roaring Twenties."

Joseph Beuys, on his first visit to the United States at the age of 53. The other two cities visited for his 1974 “Energy Plan for the Western Man”: Chicago and Minneapolis.

This is exciting stuff, wish I’d been in MPLS to check out the prototype! Colin Kloecker: Shanai and I built something (more photos). We’ll build it again on Saturday and then again on Sunday. We hope you’ll stop by and contribute a movement to our new museum.
