Invitation to Collaborate, Contribute and Promote your Project

[Yvette Dubel]

I wanted to share this with you to contribute or pass along to those that would be interested to participate in the Cultural Fusion Experience and help promote your projects, organization, etc. Also because I am using this as a way to scout for collaborators for the Cultural Fusion World Tour....we can discuss that later if that is of interest to you. Of course, anyone else that is interested is also welcomed to connect with me.

Currently I am inviting people, especially artists, to contribute to a new video that puts Cultural Fusion art sponsorships into context and helps define the project "brand"....where we move beyond selling people on an image of what a company/product/thing is and instead invite them (the community) to explore/help define what it is.

What is involved?
Each person that is selected will contribute a video clip reading one to three slides from a power point presentation. If you are an artist, I'd love to see your work included or in the background of your clip....each presenter will be credited in subtitle, as well as an article with links to Cultural Fusion member profiles.

Contributors will also be featured in upcoming radio shows, interview or feature in Oci Novosti magazine - new project publication launching later this month or mid December.

Oci Novosti is good news with an artist perspective. We will be featuring the good work and issues being addressed by individuals and communities around the globe. Instead of highlighting the problems, we'll be paying attention to the people that are solving them.

I point this out because it could be a great way to start promoting various artists, events, and communities/organizations that are or will be participating. If SICU members participate I am happy to credit you as part of SICU as well as your own company/organization.

My thinking is you could have a few or several artist shoot their clips in your national art museum or similar locations you wish to promote or bring attention- with their work in the background (2D work, performances, etc) or as part of the reading itself.

If you are interested, or know anyone who is please join me at the Cultural Fusion Group Network because I will be using the group to coordinate this endeavor to make things easier (manageable).

All the best!

Hmmm.

I wanted to do a few audio experiments starting with ideas for the digital Oci Novosti...more than a few but it gets complicated. I have begun doing interviews exploring the idea of Cultural Fusion as the antithesis of protest art, which has preserved through its reactionary expression an artistic tribute to the worst of human behavior.

This broadcast is a part of the my inquiry into interactive (collaborative) installation and performance work based Conceptual & Process Art in Art as Philosophy - basis for art based research & development. In a nutshell that is the heart of exploring business itself as a work of art. The focus of cultural fusion as an art movement and a series is on "art with purpose" which points towards social entrepreneurship.

This show will also offer an opportunity to learn about how this project is coming to understand Culture beyond ethnic, industry, organization, racial, or national origins. In addition audiences will be introduced to interesting ideas, enterprises and projects that are seeking to play a part in building a better world....more peace, more love, more abundance, more of the best of you.
