Yes, this is a post about Environment for Blog Action Day. You’ll see, I’m getting there.
Following Radiohead’s Pay-What-You-Can move for In Rainbows I’ve been witness to some interesting debates. Many musicians I know have been celebrating. Because Radiohead’s servers have been overloaded, many people have been publicly circulating versions of the album on [...]

Caught the Yo Majesty Show this weekend, after hearing Marilis rave with love about them. I met a sparse crowd on first arrival, unsurprising for a Monday show, but Lambi was kicking happy with already near irresistible beats from the jovial Sixtoo. I found Tristan with Romane, one of the owners of Lambi, drinking cognac [...]

Oh Independents…here we are - Risa, Alanah and me, ther powerhouse of table-guarding - with yet another Indyish table, selling yet more copies of the Assembly projectbook and showing off the “We Plug In” t-shirts. Musicians, producers, media-folk and plebians-at-large are dropping by, and we are explaining in both English and French what Indyish is. [...]

Alright, this has nothing to do with the Osheaga contest or the upcoming Monthly Mess, but it’s nerdy cool and perfect for a rainy day. I suspect that if you enjoy the creative process you’ll get a kick out of this (thanks, Dan for reminding me about it!)

The Dana Centre in London UK is hosting the Take Away Festival - DIY Media this week - May 9-11, 2007…. sigh. It sounds like an awesome series of deep geek panels and exhibits with groups who are applying the DIY ethic to technology in all kinds of logical and cool directions… can I coin [...]

It’s true - we’d be nothing without you. A few examples:
1. Indyish went into maintenance mode for about 30minutes today when we discovered that our database servers had made a mistake and pushed themselves over capacity. We rebounded pretty fast, but it would have been worse if Sheila from Celtx hadn’t noticed minutes after [...]

The Assembly 2.0 is an international art relay for writers, actors, directors, illustrators, animators (GIFs) and musicians.
Press Release here.
Indyish can now officially announce that the starting text for the Assembly 2.0 - the project’s kernel - will be provided by the gentleman who’s been an international Fringe success story several times over, the critically [...]

Indyish is into open source art. We experiment with it in all kinds of ways, most recently with our partners at Celtx; hopefully new and better ways all the time. And we follow the birth of exciting projects like Open Source Cinema (another Montreal project, which launched this week, though I think they’ve had a [...]
