We're meeting in Seattle on April 6th and 7th!


== Plan and Preparation ==


The current plan is to have Day 1 (April 6th) focused on '''critique and feedback''' and Day 2 (April 7th) focused on '''group work'''.
== Draft (evolving) agenda ==


=== Critique and Feedback Sessions ===
Anyone attending should plan to be around and available from '''Friday April 6 8:30am''' through until '''Saturday a April 7th 2:30pm''' (including the evening of Friday April 6th.
For the '''critique and feedback''' sessions we're expecting everybody who wants to participate to submit (a) something in writing (e.g., a paper, a [[Matsuzaki outline]], an extended abstract) and (b) a list of questions or types of feedback you want. Please only submit something you want feedback on!


If you want to participate, you need to email something to collective@communitydata.cc by the end of day on '''Sunday April 1'''. No joke! Not everybody needs to participate but anybody who does participate should only submit one thing.
We will plan an optional (but fun!) get-together at '''Thursday April 5th ~5-6pm''' that will involve dinner.

Folks in Seattle who can host should describe their hosting capabilities here:

** "Meet our adult doodling and caption-writing party game. You start by drawing a loaded phrase (e.g. Monkey Knife Fight) and passing it on. By the time your delightful drawing is interpreted by your friends' weird minds, things will have gone horribly wrong. Then it's most grins wins."

** "An adult party game for meme-lovers. The rules are simple. Each round, a rotating judge plays a Photo Card and everyone else plays a Caption Card to complete the meme. The judge decides the funniest pairing, and whoever played the winning Caption Card wins the round."
