Remember that annual creative conference, CreativeMix, that we've shared with you the past couple of years? They're coming back in November and they want you to join them. Of course they want you to join them as participants in the conference but they're also looking for ten people, groups, collaborators or companies to participate in the Creative Exhibition part of the conference. FOR FREE! They're awarding display space showcasing the creative community here in Vancouver through a submission process that ends October 7th. The complete details are HERE, I also caught up with CreativeMix co-producer Eileen Rothe who was kind to answer a few questions I had about the affair...
Last year at CreativeEx: IDEA Program (Capilano University - creative education in action)
Why do you do CreativeEX at CreativeMix?
I loved Show & Tell in elementary school. Why did we stop doing that exactly? And Scholastic book day – we should bring that back!
What has surprised you the most about this process?
People are very comfortable talking about what they do, but are less inclined to SHOW what they can do.
If you had to pick a favourite display from a previous CreativeEX, what would it be?
The cool science court dudes that got everyone involved in making sound wave art. And the spontaneous beat box slam poet at lunch – that was rad!
Last year at CreativeEx: Mighty Ugly (craft building to get inspired)
Last year at CreativeEx: Remix Your Life (sound making workshops)
