Art and Culture Potluck and Evolver PGH Steering Meeting
As modern civilization hurtles down a path to self-destruction, bands of inspired people are forging a new culture that fuses the sacred rites and ecological values of pre-modern societies with cutting-edge art, science, and technology. Radically creative festivals such as Burning Man, Lighting in a Bottle, and Boom are at the vanguard of this future-primitive synthesis. It also can be observed in the rise of neo-shamanic literature and art, in the fantastic images of manga and anime, in the electro-tribal rhythms of DJ culture, in mystical hip hop, and even in blockbuster films like Avatar.
Join Evolver Pittsburgh in a night of exploring what art and beauty can offer us.
Please bring a tasty dish to share with everyone, and BYOB - let's make this a night to remember!
After the demonstrations, documentaries and festivities, we will have a brief meeting about how group organization, membership and ideas for future events.

A wonderful idea, though I
A wonderful idea, though I probably won't make it to this meeting. I have to be up early for a symposium on the health effects of Marcellus Shale drilling and have a final in the morning as well. I really do hope to meet up soon though.
