Hey everybody, here's the text we need to sort out asap for monkeytown, any help from anyone would be much appreciated:

first. we'd need this QUICK/SIMPLE info.

1. a SHORT title for the night (band names or artist name is fine)
2. a VERY pithy blurb for the calendar (10 - 14 words)
3. preferred admission price (normally between $5 - $10 or FREE, never $6)
4. it will be a 10:30 door time

it will wind up looking something like this:

Sunday, May 13
Rainbowsss + DPM
Brooklyn trio conjures up cocktail of
Psyche/Experimental/Improv with visuals
(8:30pm) $7, $10 Minimum

for your Webpage...

5. a paragraph or so description of the night for your Event Page
6. any links you have
7. any images/photos

here's an example of a short Event Page:

here's an example of a lengthier Event Page:

FREE admission, yes- and I think maybe a lower DVD price could sell a greater quantity of DVDs. This would likely serve the extra benefit of being a source of 'private screenings.' We might even like to give away a few...

...of course, with Kika's autograph on there... Big bucks! ;)

Monday, May 18th
the equisite corpse video project
A multi-channel video collaboration featuring 14 artists from 9 countries.
(10:30pm) Free

Inspired by the Surrealist invention, the "Exquisite Corpse", a method of sequential, collaborative image production, these video shorts were composed over a period of two weeks by 14 artists from 9 countries.

In the Surrealist 'game', a paper is folded such that each contributor sees only a small portion of the previous contributor's work, and begins his own work from that small portion. When the last participant is finished, the sheet is unfolded to reveal a strangely divergent, yet contiguous form or figure.

These video versions were created by members of artreview.com, an online networking site for artists, galleries, and collectors, and was instigated and managed by Brazilian video-artist, Kika Nicolela. They were composed in the following manner: the final ten-seconds of an initial one-minute video is sent online to a second participant, who then integrates it into the beginning of her own minute-long video, and she, in turn, sends her final-ten-seconds to a third contributor, and so on, until the collected minutes are 'stitched' together in their order, creating a single piece.

Looks great. I just made a few corrections in the text below.

Yes, me too, the text reads very well. If it's Corpses 4-6 that are showing, might need to check the number of artists?
