[dorkbotsea-blabber] Re: Sept 10 2008 Dorkbot: Reporting on Dorkish Art at Burning Man 2008

[shelly at hive-mind.com]

Reminder, this is tonight -->
Here's the update:  I'll be starting with a general overview and report on
some of the Dork art I a saw at Burning Man, a local artist, Tanjent, will
talk about his project "Applecore", and then we'll show a couple of great
TvFree burning man video interviews of artists including the creators of
"Tantalus" and "The Hand of Man".

See you at 7!
