PAST BREAKING NEWS

2001/11/20

Last night's town meeting at On the Boards meeting went very well. SIL2K's very own Jason Justice was able to articulate the need for finding someone who embraces all fields of Sound Art with open arms. His points were taken well by the rest of the meeting participants and by the attending members of the Search Committee. At this point, we have no plans to post the meeting minutes or regularly publicize the progress of the Search Committee. This may change however, as we get closer to selecting candidates for interviews. We are still soliciting input from the artist community and the regional community at large, and will continue to do so for the next few months. Please feel free to contact any of us to give us your thoughts and feelings. To see a full list of staff contacts please go to www.ontheboards.org.

We are sad to announce that November 19th will be the last weekly SIL2K show at I-Spy. We've had a lot of fun bringing you these shows over the last two years, but regretfully we aren't bringing in enough people to pay the bills (much less the artists!). Thanks to everyone for your support -- SIL2K will continue to exist through the ensemble and specialty shows which we will bring you from time to time. Please see Stuart's notes on SIL2K past and future on the eGroups site, or read this press release:
